Mechanical and manual traction are non-invasive therapies used by chiropractors to alleviate pain and improve mobility in patients suffering from a variety of conditions, including herniated discs, sciatica, and neck or back pain.
Mechanical traction involves the use of a machine to gently stretch the spine, reducing pressure on the affected area and improving circulation. Manual traction, on the other hand, is performed by a trained therapist who applies gentle force to the spine, pulling it into alignment and reducing pain and discomfort.
Both mechanical and manual traction are safe and effective therapies that can provide significant relief for individuals suffering from chronic pain or mobility issues. These therapies are particularly beneficial for individuals who have not responded well to other treatment options, or for those who wish to avoid invasive procedures such as surgery.
If you are experiencing chronic pain or mobility issues, mechanical or manual traction may be an effective treatment option for you.
