What a Corrective Spine Traction Session is Like

The cervical decompression table. We set up a relaxing environment so that you feel very comfortable and ready for the process.

Usually, a session would take around 15 minutes. Several sessions will help you reap the benefits of corrective spine traction from our clinic. You will need approximately 18 to 36 sessions stretched over 6 to 12 weeks to reap the utmost advantage of the corrective spine traction procedure.

Why is Corrective Spine Traction Safe?

There are minimal long-term risks of spinal traction, and the doctor will screen those patients who should not use this method. However, other care options, such as surgery, could have various side effects mainly after the procedure. With corrective spinal traction, you may experience some soreness or muscle spasms after the therapy. Hence the doctor will let you know of this to prepare you. Also, those patients who are already in pain, could also experience additional pain in the adjusted area, especially when another underlying and possibly undiagnosed health problem is there. In general, corrective spinal traction is very well tolerated and patients look forward to their treatments.

Despite these two challenges, corrective spinal traction far outweighs the benefits, as our support provides consistent relief. Dr. Gustitus, our professional chiropractor for traction therapy, will conduct the procedure under his supervision.
