Mechanical Traction is a non-invasive treatment that uses a traction table to gently stretch and decompress the spine.

The treatment involves lying on a specially designed table that slowly and gently stretches the spine, creating space between the vertebrae and relieving pressure on the nerves.

This gentle, non-surgical procedure can provide lower back and neck pain relief, and sciatica pain relief, and is a state-of-the-art procedure for, bulging, herniated, or degenerative disc disease in the neck and lumbar regions.

The gentle distractive forces of Mechanical Traction create a decompression of the spine with unloading due to distraction and proper positioning, to improve blood flow and nutrient exchange to the injured area. You'll experience several cycles of stretch and relaxation, which graduate to a peak over a period of several minutes.
