WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE Accu-SPINA™ SYSTEM AND TRACTION?
Traction disperses the pull of weights among the majority of spinal segments reducing the actual amount of pull necessary to create negative pressure within each segment. Traction can also cause the adjacent muscles to spasm placing more pressure on the disc. The Accu-SPINA™ isolates the specific problem disc by its unique angle of distraction (or pull). It creates a negative pressure within the disc space, which draws fluid, nutrients and oxygen into the disc helping it to heal. The unique method by which it distracts the spinal segments eliminates the reaction of the neighboring muscles so that they do not spasm.
