The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 05/08/2012
Rowell RM et al. – This case was one of chronic idiopathic testicular pain. The patient was treated with the Cox Technic, and his low–back pain improved with complete remission of his leg and testicular pain. The testicular pain had not returned 6 months following his discharge from care.
Methods- The patient was treated with Cox Technic (flexion–distraction) of the lumbar spine, receiving a total of 19 treatments over an 8–week time period.
- After 4 weeks, the patient's low–back pain was decreased and his leg pain was gone.
- The testicular pain was improved after the first treatment and gone after 3 weeks of care.
- The patient was followed up by telephone at 3 and 6 months after discharge to find out if the testicle pain had returned, which it had not.
