Neck traction, also called cervical traction, is a type of stretching that is often used for neck pain. Traction is usually used on the neck, spine, arms, legs, and pelvis to help with any muscle, joint, or bone problems. Neck traction, or cervical traction, also uses pulling force on the neck. These are usually stretches or other exercises that are used to relieve neck pain. These can sometimes involve devices that you can use at home.
Neck traction also uses the pulling force of your neck so it works well for people suffering from pinched nerves. A trained and experienced physical therapist is well aware of the benefits of traction therapy for treating the problem of pinched nerves.
