Mechanical Traction

Overview

Mechanical traction uses specialized equipment to produce a steady, controlled, and decompressive force on the cervical or lumbar spine. This takes the pressure off the joints and the discs in the spine, giving pain relief for many neck or lower back pain conditions. 

Injuries that mechanical traction is used to treat:

  • Disc bulge
  • Ruptured disc
  • Spinal degeneration
  • Sciatica
  • Nerve pain
