Cervical Traction

What is Cervical Traction?

Cervical Traction is a therapeutic technique used to relieve neck pain and improve spinal health. It involves applying a gentle pulling force to the cervical spine (neck) to stretch and decompress the vertebrae, discs, and nerves. This helps reduce pressure, alleviate pain, and improve circulation in the neck and upper back area. Cervical traction is commonly used to treat conditions like cervical spondylosis, herniated discs, neck stiffness, and nerve impingement. It is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that promotes healing, reduces muscle tension, and restores mobility, offering significant relief for those suffering from chronic neck pain.

Conditions Treated with Cervical Traction

Cervical Traction is highly effective for treating a variety of neck and upper back conditions, including:

  • Cervical spondylosis (degenerative changes in the cervical spine)

  • Herniated or bulging discs in the neck

  • Cervical radiculopathy (nerve impingement causing pain radiating down the arms)

  • Neck stiffness and muscle spasms

  • Whiplash injury and post-accident recovery

  • Tension headaches related to neck strain
