The Neckpro Overdoor Cervical Traction Device, developed by Dr. Larry Gilliam, M.D., eliminates the bag of water and its trial and error method of traction tension used by conventional home overdoor traction systems. By using a precision made compression spring and a unique ratcheting device, the Neckpro delivers a more precise amount of cervical traction tension. Each 'click' of the ratchet signals a 1 lb. (.5 kg) increase in the tension being applied, allowing the patient to monitor and track the settings which provide a positive outcome.
The specially-designed head halter is easy to apply and comfortable even under high levels of cervical traction tension. Quick-release straps on the Neckpro give the patient a convenient way to relieve unwanted tension without having to worry about a new setup. Simple, effective, portable and affordable, the Neckpro Overdoor Cervical Traction Device is one of the most user-friendly cervical traction devices available.
Neck pain can be caused by traumatic injury from strain, whiplash, or a fracture. However, it also may be caused from sitting too long at a desk or computer; driving long distances; poor posture; improper sleeping habits; and from everyday physical, mental, and, especially, emotional stress.
Neck pain results from muscle spasm or tension that causes narrowing of the spaces between the vertebrae. This stricture places pressure on the nerves in the area, a condition commonly known as a pinched nerve.
Thats where Neckpro comes in. Neckpro is a device that applies cervical traction, stretching muscles and forcing them to relax. The result is to effectively break the neck pain/spasm cycle.
Invented by a practicing physician, who is board-certified in Emergency Medicine, Neckpro is an over-the-door cervical traction unit for home use. It is safe and effective when used as directed to relieve pain associated with:
Cervical disc herniation;
Cervical radiculopathy;
Fibromyalgia;
Neck strain;
Osteoarthritis;
Pinched nerve in the upper spine with associated pain
radiating down upper extremities;
Spondylosis;
Tension, and/or tightness (muscle spasm) in muscles of
the upper back, shoulders, and neck and/or resulting insomnia or tension
headaches; and
Whiplash.
