Best Answer

The Pronex Pneumatic Cervical Traction device works by supporting the head and neck between 2 cushions that are then inflated by air providing an even stretch to the cervical discs. Pressure is increased and decreased gently by the patient squeezing a bulb inflator so they have full control of their own traction.

Restore a normal cervical curve?

Your question is not a question so it''s unclear what you mean. If you mean "Can you restore a normal cervical curve?", the answer is I believe so, at least temporarily. If you mean "Do the traction devices that are supposed to restore a normal cervical curve really work?", I think most do. I know this from personal experience because I went to a chiropractor, he pointed out that my cervical curve was straight, and he gave me a cervical traction system consisting of a foam roll, a head harness and a 5-pound lead ball. After a few months of using the device, the curve did improve somewhat, but it went back to what is was before after I stopped using it. The important question is "Is having a normal cervical curve important to your health?" I don't know the answer to this question. Vik97
