Gonstead Method

Dr. C. S. Gonstead (1898-1978) was the "Miracle Man" of Chiropractic. His technique became the Hall Mark for the entire profession. With a background in mechanical engineering, he saw the human spine as an intricate engineering wonder and he studied it every chance he had. His work with thousands of spinal cases, his constant clinical studies of the spine, and his own innate knowledge of how the spine works, explains his ingenuity in finding, identifying and correcting subluxations no one else could.

Following in the steps of Dr. Gonstead, Dr. Alex and Dr. Doug Cox have maintained his teachings which are now taught in Chiropractic Colleges around the world.

The Gonstead System gives rise to a specific, definite approach, to every segment of the spinal column. The detailed analysis includes instrumentation, digital palpation, motion palpation, visualization, x-ray followed by adjusting the articulations of the spine by hand only!

Dr John Cox uses these Gonstead techniques exclusively in his practice. There is a clinical logic to every decision that is made for each and every patient. This ensures that the principles outlined by Dr. Gonstead will be duplicated, the results achieved and satisfied patients is the mission of Cox Chiropractic.
