Clinical Benefits of Decompression/Traction Therapy
|
|
Research points to the beneficial effects of traction because it can distract joint surfaces, reduce protrusions of nuclear
discal material, stretch soft-tissue muscles and mobilize joints. These effects provide many patients with pain relief from
spinal dysfunction. The stimulation of sensory mechanoreceptors that occurs with the application of traction may also gate
pain transmission.
