Scientific Findings Regarding Cox® Disc Decompression

1. The disc space increases in height relieving irritation of the spinal nerve.
2. Decreases disc protrusion and reduces stenosis.
3. Tensions the ligaments to reduce stenosis.
4. Opens the vertebral canal by 2 mm. (16%).
5. Increases metabolite transport into the disc.
6. Opens the posterior facet joints and reduces posterior disc stress.
7. Intradiscal pressure drops under distraction.
8. Intervertebral foraminal openings enlarge giving patency to the nerve.
