Traction Therapy
Traction therapy is a non-invasive treatment designed to alleviate spinal pressure, improve alignment, and promote healing for individuals suffering from conditions such as disc degeneration, pinched nerves, and sciatica or arm/hand symptoms. By gently stretching the spine, research studies have demonstrated that controlled traction therapy can create a negative pressure within the intervertebral discs, which can help retract herniated or bulging discs. This process reduces pressure on nerves, alleviating pain and discomfort. Flexion/Distraction treatment tables enhance this therapy by allowing the doctor to provide precise and customizable adjustments, ensuring targeted relief and maximum comfort for patients. The tables' ergonomic design and variable resistance, which is adjusted for each individual patient, allows for optimal patient comfort while delivering spinal decompression in order to promote natural healing and improved mobility.
For individuals with sciatica or pinched nerves, Flexion/Distraction traction tables are particularly effective in providing consistent and controlled relief. The therapy works by addressing the root causes of nerve compression, such as misaligned vertebrae or herniated discs, and gradually relieving tension. Patients often experience reduced inflammation, improved circulation, and a significant decrease in pain after regular sessions. Additionally, these tables are designed to accommodate a range of body types and spinal conditions, making them a versatile solution for practitioners aiming to provide safe and effective traction therapy for long-term spinal health.
