Med-x is a comprehensive rehabilitation program that incorporates the sports medicine approach to the treatment of chronic neck and back pain. A key component in this program is the Med-x equipment, developed by the founder of the Nautilus exercise equipment Arthur Jones.

The Med-x machines are specially designed to provide the most effective means of isolating, safely testing, and directly strengthening the muscles in the low back and neck. The Med-x program also incorporates general strength and fitness building activities that are supervised by a licensed physical therapist to ensure the patients safety and progress.

The primary goals of this program are to improve range of motion, improve muscle strength, decrease pain, and return the patient to normal function. The entire program generally takes less than one hour, twice a week for 8 to 12 weeks.
