Does it modulate pain well? Yes! Is it easy for the patient to perform away from the clinic - No! When I use manual traction, it's typically for pain modulation to make a repeated end range loading reset strategy as threat free as possible. I haven't had to sell a patient a traction unit more than a few times a year, and that's only for the cervical spine (check out the Neck Saviour on EDGE Mobility System). Otherwise to me, it's like any other manual therapy technique, should be used to make the Recovery Plan easier to dose therapeutically. Hope this helps! Are you a patient in need of my help?
