Theratrac Glide Cervical Traction Unit

SKU: TTG10

The Theratrac Glide Cervical Traction Unit (by PMT) is a top-of-the-line cervical traction device.

The Theratrac Glide focuses on healing any neck pain while maintaining user comfort.

The traction system utilizes cables connected to a track which smoothly moves your head up and down. The user can control the amount of traction by using the dial attached to the device. This unit is similar to the Saunders Cervical Traction Device yet costs much less which is a win:win. 

Compared to over-the-door and inflatable traction devices, the Theratrac Glide does not constrict your head and neck because of the adjustable foam neck pads.

The Theratrac Glide Cervical Traction Unit alleviates neck tension, tightness, and pain while delivering it with maximum user comfort. The Cervical Traction system is operated by an easy to use dial which controls the cable system to increase or decrease head elevation smoothly. The cable system always ensures a comfortable transition because the neck is at a 30-degree angle and is not constricted in any way, unlike an over-the-door or inflation system.

The neck pad width can be adjusted to fit the unique shape of your body by twisting the knobs on the sides of the device. While using the device, lay in a supine position flat on your back and it is recommended to have your legs elevated.

WHAT IS CERVICAL TRACTION?

Cervical traction is a technique used to gently pull your head from the neck to reduce pressure on the spine. It’s a safe alternative for eliminating neck pain as opposed to using surgeries and drugs. You can use it at home or as part of therapy treatment. 

It’s a highly effective technique that’s easy and fast-acting. In this article, we explain everything you need to know about this technique. 

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CERVICAL TRACTION?

Cervical traction devices such as the TheraTrac Glide Traction Device alleviate pains from the neck region. Some of the conditions associated with the cervical region include sprains, pinched nerves, herniated discs, spasms, cervical spondylosis, and pain in joints. 

Cervical traction works by stretching the muscles and the spine, relieving pain and pressure. The main benefits of this technique include: 

  • Relaxes joints and muscles
  • Alleviates pain from spasms, sprains, and joints
  • Treats and flattens bulging
  • Improves mobility 
  • Enhances alignment of the spine
  • Improves posture and gait
  • Treats people with pinched nerves and neck pains

WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF CERVICAL TRACTION?

The three main types of cervical traction include:

MANUAL CERVICAL TRACTION

Manual cervical traction is the manual pulling of the head from your neck. A physiotherapist usually does it as you lay down on a table. They gently pull your head and hold it at one position before releasing and repeating the same process. Your physiotherapists repeat this process until the proper adjustments are made. 

MECHANICAL CERVICAL TRACTION

Like manual cervical traction, mechanical cervical traction is also performed by a physiotherapist. But, this type uses a harness that’s attached or hooked to a system of weights. The machine applies traction force to pull your head from the neck or spine. 

OVER THE DOOR CERVICAL TRACTION

Over the door cervical traction is for home use. It has a harness connected to a pulley system that goes over a door. This traction device can be used while sitting, standing, or lying down.
