What is Cervical and Lumbar Traction Guide about?

This document discusses cervical and lumbar traction. Traction applies a longitudinal force to the spine and structures to reduce pain from conditions like herniated discs and muscle spasm. Traction can be continuous, sustained, or intermittent. Cervical traction is most effective at 25-30 degrees of flexion and lumbar traction overcomes lower extremity weight. Precautions include evaluating the condition first and monitoring the patient during treatment.
