With this treatment, it is possible to reposition your bulging or herniated discs, lowering the pressure level on the back. In manual spinal traction, an experienced physiotherapist will use his/her hand to put the patient in the state of traction. On the other, in mechanical traction, we use advanced mechanical devices to stretch muscles and the spinal vertebrae.

How Does Traction Therapy Work?

Traction is an effective treatment option that works on the application of pressure on the spinal column axis. Parts of the spinal column will be safely pulled in opposite directions to change or stabilize the position of the spine’s damaged aspects

No matter whether your condition was caused by a sport, work accident or otherwise, we welcome the chance to serve you.
