Spinal traction is the application of a longitudinal/axial pull on the cervical and/or lumbar spine, either manual or mechanical, intermittent or continuous.
Spinal, cervical, and/or pelvic traction may be helpful for the relief of neck and/or low back pain and muscle spasm.
Care Starts with a Thorough Evaluation
Our spine specialists start with an intensive examination and assessment of your condition. A treatment plan is then developed that is based on your specific needs. We then provide a clear, easy-to-understand explanation of how we can help you manage your pain.
We Then Develop a Personalized Treatment Plan for You
Treatment often consists of gentle, hands-on techniques, often resulting in immediate relief of spine-related pain. Since our spine care is all-natural, there are few side effects.
We frequently include the following procedures in your treatment program:
- Manual therapy (hands-on treatment)
- A customized therapeutic exercise program
- Extensive patient education about your condition
Our Evidence-Based Approach
There are three components to every spine rehabilitation program:
- The current best evidence – new scientific research is being published regularly that suggests you should see a physical therapist first.
- Our clinical experience – we’ve treated a variety of spine diagnoses over the years. Clinical experience allows us to make good decisions about the treatment we should receive.
- Your treatment goals – of course, we consider your goals when developing a treatment plan.
We Can Accommodate You
We understand that a comprehensive treatment plan is more than just pain relief. We know you have a busy schedule, insurance coverage may be challenging, and you have to deal with work and family responsibilities. We will work with you and your specific circumstances.
