Traction

It is one of the oldest treatment methods efficiently used to treat lower back, neck and back pain. It is a technique for stretching soft tissues and separating joint surfaces and bone structures from each other by tractive power. It can be manual, mechanical, motorized or hydraulic.

By traction,

  • Gaps between the vertebrae are extended.
  • Muscle spasm around the spine is resolved.
  • Disc pressure is reduced.

Traction is used to treat hernias.
It is not applied in the presence of severe osteoporosis, multi level herniated disc associated with arthritis, spinal fracture, serious spinal cord compression, and inflammation and tumors.
