The Clinical Standard for Spinal Decompression

Physical therapists and chiropractors often recommend Over-Door Cervical Traction for patients managing chronic neck stiffness, radiating arm pain, or tension-based mobility restrictions. By providing a consistent, upward pull, the system helps to rehydrate spinal discs and reduce the mechanical pressure on nerves. This "Zero-Friction" approach to stretching is a cornerstone of conservative treatment for neck-related injuries and age-related wear.

Designed for durability and ease of use, this Drive Medical set allows patients to perform their prescribed exercises consistently. Its portable nature means that therapy doesn't have to stop when you travel, ensuring you maintain your progress toward a pain-free lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How long should a traction session last?

Session length should always be determined by your healthcare provider. Most protocols suggest starting with short 5- to 10-minute sessions and gradually increasing as tolerated.

Will this damage my door?

The over-door bracket is designed with protective contact points; however, we recommend ensuring the door is fully closed and latched before beginning your session for maximum stability.

Can I use sand instead of water in the bag?

The system is specifically calibrated for use with water. Using other materials may make the weight difficult to measure accurately and could put undue stress on the pulley cord.
