Effects of Lumbar Mechanical Traction
What Can BACK ON TRAC™ do for you?
Reduce pain and increase Range Of Motion
Vertebra Separation, which may decrease intradiscal pressure and reduce bulging of nuclear material
and may reduce bulging of nuclear material, and may enhance osmosis from vertebral endplates,
increasing fluid/blood supply to discs.
Separation and gliding of the facet joints, establishing potential for the improved alignment, articulation, and joint mobility.
Tensing, if not stretching of the system of spinal ligaments.
Widening of vertebral foramina, allowing increased space for spinal nerve roots.
Straightening of spinal curves
Stretching of the spinal musculature, potentially decreasing its sensitivity to stretch and therefore decreasing muscle spasms/guarding. It is also possible that this stretch may improve blood supply to posterior soft tissues.
Indications for Lumbar Mechanical Traction
Spinal nerve root impingement:
Bulging and Herniated disc
Ligament encroachment
Narrowing of the intervertebral foramen
Osteophyte encroachment
Spinal nerve root swelling
Spondylolisthesis

Extrinsic muscle spasm and muscle guarding
Discogenic pain
Joint pain
Compression fracture
Contraindications for Lumbar Mechanical Traction
Acute joint sprains, strains and inflammation
Spinal instability and general joint hyper mobility
Spinal Acute Fractures
Spinal Cancer
Pregnancy
Osteoporosis
Hiatal hernia
Bilateral neurological signs – may indicate a cord compromise
