Intersegmental Traction in Staten Island

intersegmental traction diagram

INTERSEGMENTAL TRACTION: This is a specialized table that stretches and relaxes the spine. A series of rollers can be adjusted for specific, customized pressure focusing on your problem areas. The spine is supported by muscles, ligaments and tendons. Pain or injury causes shortening and tightening of these structures leading to pain on movement, loss of mobility and restricted range of motion. This treatment can actually lengthen and relax those shortened and tight muscles, ligaments and tendons resulting in less pain, the ability to bend and move with less pain and overall improvement in spinal function. Patients love this treatment because it also feels great.
