It is important to see your medical professional or therapist diagnose the cause of neck pain and related symptoms such as – pain in shoulder blades, numbness, or tingling in the spine, arm, or hand.
Cervical traction devices gently stretch your neck to reduce pressure on the spine and separate the disc (vertebrae) and joint surfaces in your cervical spine (neck). Creating space between the vertebrae relieves compression and allows the muscles to relax. This stretching lengthens the muscles around the neck, ligaments, and tendons. Stretching the spinal vertebrae relieves muscle spasms, sprains, and joints.
