Cervical Traction CERVICAL TRACTION is a treatment used in physical therapy to help alleviate neck pain. Traction can be useful to treat degenerative disc disease (DDD), cervical radiculopathy, or tight muscles. Traction gently stretches and lengthen the neck, helping to create space in between the vertebrae alleviating the pressure on the affected disc and nerves. The prolonged stretch gives tight muscles adequate time to relax and restore a more normal position. If you’re suffering from neck pain, call Johnson Physical Therapy at 970.564.0311 today to see if Cervical Traction is right for you! If you don’t see relief within two weeks, contact a professional. Physical therapists can target your pain’s source by examining your symptoms. Then, they can offer exercises that stretch, flex and relax your neck muscles. In time, your neck will become more resilient — giving you the comfort you deserve. Where after-care treatment is considered, custom-tailored neck exercises will assure your neck stays loose, limber and healthy. Neck pain, fortunately, can be alleviated with physical therapy. Because neck pain is often caused by activity, different activity can cure it. Sometimes, this “activity” means “no activity.” Before you contact a professional, try reducing your neck movements. Sometimes, simply letting your neck muscles relax is enough.
