What is Cervical Traction?

Cervical traction is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that uses controlled force to stretch and realign the cervical spine (neck). By creating space between the vertebrae, cervical traction helps to:

• Reduce pressure on compressed nerves
• Alleviate muscle spasms
• Promote proper spinal alignment
• Improve blood flow and nutrient delivery to the neck

Our experienced therapists at Empower Physical Therapy & Aquatics Institute use state-of-the-art equipment to ensure safe, effective treatment tailored to your specific needs. With regular sessions, cervical traction can provide lasting relief from neck pain and improve your overall quality of life.

The Benefits of Cervical Traction

• Pain Relief: By gently stretching and realigning the cervical spine, cervical traction helps alleviate neck pain caused by conditions such as herniated discs, pinched nerves, and muscle spasms. In a study published by the Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 81% of participants experienced significant pain reduction after receiving cervical traction therapy.
  
• Improved Mobility: Regular cervical traction sessions can enhance neck and shoulder mobility, making daily activities easier and more comfortable. According to a report by the American Physical Therapy Association, patients who underwent cervical traction experienced a 35% increase in neck mobility on average.
  
• Non-Invasive Treatment: Cervical traction offers a safe, non-surgical alternative for managing chronic neck pain, reducing the need for medication or invasive procedures. This therapy is well-tolerated by most patients and has minimal side effects compared to surgical interventions.
  
• Enhanced Blood Flow: By creating space between the vertebrae, cervical traction can improve blood circulation to the neck and shoulders, promoting faster healing and overall neck health. Improved blood flow also helps to reduce inflammation and stiffness in the cervical region.
