Spinal traction is a trusted chiropractic technique that helps relieve pressure on the spine by gently stretching it to promote healing and improve alignment. This non-surgical therapy works by separating the vertebrae, which reduces compression on the spinal discs and nerves. The process helps increase circulation, allows nutrients and oxygen to reach injured areas, and encourages the body’s natural healing response. Spinal traction is extremely effective for treating conditions such as herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, pinched nerves, and chronic neck or back pain.
What makes spinal traction especially valuable in chiropractic care is its ability to address the root cause of spinal discomfort rather than simply masking symptoms. By decompressing the spine and improving alignment, this therapy supports the body’s natural structure and function, helping prevent future flare-ups and improving overall wellness. When combined with other chiropractic techniques, such as adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and corrective exercises, spinal traction can deliver powerful results for both acute and chronic pain.
