Intersegmental Traction in Oklahoma City
Here at Chiaf Chiropractic Clinic, we offer intersegmental traction to compliment chiropractic care.
What Is Intersegmental Traction?
Intersegmental traction is a therapeutic technique designed to gently mobilize and stretch the spine. We utilize a specialized table, equipped with dual rollers that move up and down the spine to improve spinal mobility. It also increases blood flow to and from the spine, provides oxygen to the discs, ligaments, and tendons, and encourages better spinal alignment.
Enhanced Chiropractic Adjustments
The synergy between intersegmental traction and chiropractic adjustments is remarkable. Chiropractic care primarily focuses on correcting misalignments or subluxations in the spinal cord. Intersegmental traction is an invaluable complement, preparing the spine to be adjusted. By gently stretching and mobilizing the spine, it creates a more receptive environment for Dr. Chiaf to perform precise chiropractic adjustments.
Your role in intersegmental traction is simple. You lay down and get comfortable and let the intersegmental traction table do the rest.
How It Helps
Intersegmental traction is a gift to chiropractic care. It offers a variety of benefits, including:
- Spinal Mobilization: Intersegmental traction aids in gently mobilizing the spinal segments. This reduces stiffness and promotes flexibility in the spine. It also facilitates smoother, more targeted chiropractic adjustments.
- Improved Circulation: The controlled stretching provided by intersegmental traction encourages blood flow to and from the spinal tissues. This increased circulation promotes optimal function of the nervous system.
- Muscle Relaxation: Tension and muscle spasms often accompany spinal misalignment. Intersegmental traction helps alleviate muscle tightness, making it easier for Dr. Chiaf to perform adjustments without resistance.
- Long-Term Wellness: The integration of intersegmental traction into chiropractic care addresses current discomfort while also playing a preventative role in maintaining spinal health. Regular sessions can contribute to a more resilient spine, reducing the likelihood of future issues.
