title: Personal experiences with cervical traction.
abstract: The technique described here has evolved over a period of time in a busy physiotherapy practice. The results have improved so much over the last three years, that 90% of patients referred for cervical traction have been treated successfully. This success is due both to the positioning of the patient and to the use of Varitrak machines, which have made the application much easier, both from a mechanical and relaxant point of view. The positions described are the same for intermittent and fixed traction.
