Research on Air Pressure Based Mobile Neck Traction

"Research on the effects of the ambulatory aerodynamic cervical traction apparatus in disc patients with MRI." Chang June, Park³ M.D. President, Airtrac MSI Inc.

Purpose : To evaluate the reducibility of HCD during traction, we designed an air-traction device with non-magnetic (non-metallic) materials for use in MRI machine.

Method and Materials: Cervical spine MR images were obtained from twenty-three patients and seven volunteers with the application of the air-traction device that was placed in the gantry during scanning. We designed the air-traction device for cervical spine with an equivalent of 50-pound-weight. All of the patients and volunteers took MR images during neutral and traction state. We compared the length of cervical spine from C1 to C7 and examined the reducibility of HCD on traction vs . neutral position.

Results: The MR images of seven volunteers showed an increase in the height of cervical spine from 1.5 to 4.5 mm with the mean of 2.86mm during the traction. Seventeen of twenty-three patients showed an increase in height from 1 to 9mm with the mean of 2.4mm, while remaining ten showed non response during the traction.Three(13%) of twenty-three patients showed the complete reduction of HCD during the traction. Ten (43%) patients showed partially reduced HCD and remaining ten (43%) did not show any reducibility of HCD.

Conclusions: The force of the air-traction device was effective for reduction of HCD on thirteen (57%) of twenty-three patients during the cervical spine MR imaging. The cervical spine MRI with the application of air-traction device can be an effective method to find reducible HCD.

Can this product help improve the “straightening of my neck?

Unnatural straightening of the neck is maintained by muscle tightness and fixations of the joints in the neck. Traction helps loosen these tight joints and muscles. You should also be seeing a health care professional.

THIS PRODUCT IS NOT FOR RECENT SPRAIN / STRAIN INJURIES, OR ACUTE CONDITIONS.
