Dr. Cameron McConville shares a story of a retired 70 year-old mechanic with spinal stenosis who improves with Cox Technic flexion/distraction decompression therapy.
DR CAMERON MCCONVILLE
Cameron has extensive experience in the chiropractic field having graduated from the RMIT Bachelor course in 1993.
Through ongoing professional education and training Cameron has expanded his expertise and knowledge in the management of complex spinal disorders. Advances in spinal treatments led Cameron to the USA where he has undertaken further studies in the theory and application of spinal decompression/distraction therapy (Cox Technic). Cameron is pleased to be one of just a handful of certified Cox practitioners in Australia. Certified Cox practitioners are regarded for their evidence-based approach to the management of spinal disorders. Cameron has special interest in the management of 'sciatica', chronic low back, neck pain and headaches.
Cameron also has a strong interest in promoting his profession through research. In 2019 he joined the Board of the Chiropractic Australia Research Foundation (CARF), and in 2023 published his first research paper in the Canadian Journal of Chiropractic, drawing attention to the little known spinal condition known as spinal gout.
Understanding the importance of a holistic approach to back pain management Cameron has spent the past 20 years in Warragul developing strong relationships with local medical practitioners, physiotherapists and massage therapists ensuring clients achieve their health care goals.
