Saunders Cervical Traction Device

Description

The Saunders Cervical Traction Device is a home traction device that provides unparalleled traction therapy and is an alternative to long-term clinical care. The features allow true replication of clinical treatments – comfort, angle and force of home treatments are identical to what patients would receive in the clinic. This model provides traction forces directed toward the occiput (back of the head) and reduces strain on the jaw and neck while applying up to 50 pounds of effective force. The hand held pump is patient friendly and provides precise treatment for a variety of conditions while ensuring safety–user has total control of force at all times. The neck wedges swivel to accommodate different widths of necks and grab onto the mandible of the jaw to prevent loosening around the neck. It is shipped factory sealed with a simple user’s guide and a carrying case for easy traveling.
