This Dynamic Chiropractic tribute celebrates the remarkable life and legacy of Dr. James M. Cox (1940-2025), the visionary behind the renowned Cox Technic Flexion Distraction Decompression. A lifelong resident of Fort Wayne, Indiana, his impact resonated globally as a dedicated practicing chiropractor, sought-after speaker at nearly every chiropractic school and major association nationally and internationally, and a prolific author of seminal textbooks like Low Back Pain: Mechanism, Diagnosis, Treatment. Dr. Cox was also a committed researcher, tirelessly working to ease spine-related suffering and successfully advocating for federal funding for chiropractic studies. His influence extended to healthcare policy as he served on the board determining chiropractic's Medicare coverage and significantly contributed to legislation in Indiana, granting DCs the right to diagnose. Dr. Cox's unwavering dedication and multifaceted contributions have left an indelible mark on the chiropractic profession.
