What it is & how it works 5
What it is & how it works
The DDS Cervitrac is the most comprehensive Cervical Traction Device for treating neck
pain. It’s the rst device that oers the option to receive pneumatic traction while lying
down in the supine position or upright for mobile treatment. The soft traction collar can
detach from the Cervitrac frame giving you total freedom to treat your condition however
you wish. It’s lightweight, easy to use and will reduce disc pressure within the cervical spine
eectively eliminating pain.
Before Treatment
The herniated or bulging cervical disc, or herniated nucleus
pulposus, applies pressure on the nerve root, ultimately causing
pain.
After Treatment
The DDS Cervitrac alleviates pain and assists active-rehabilitation
by allowing the cervical disc, or nucleus pulposus, to return to
its natural position. By increasing the intervertebral space,
pressure applied on the nerve root is relieved, naturally
reducing pain.
Features of the DDS Cervitrac
1. The DDS Cervitrac can assist with the following indications:
• Whiplash injuries (injuries which do not involve breakage or dislocation of the bones)
• Job-related neck pain, i.e., prolonged computer use, sewing, etc.

• Muscle spasm and guarding
• Postcompression fracture
• Nerve impingement (subacute-chronic phase)
• Herniated disc
• Narrowing foramen
• Spondylolisthesis
• Spondylolysis
• Compressions or radiculopathies
2. Treats bulging and/or herniated discs eliminating neck pain.
Bulging and herniated discs are reduced by elongating
the intervertebral spaces in the cervical spine.
3. Relaxes muscle spasms, muscle cramps, strain and pain.
4. Helps treat degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, sciatica
and spondylolysis.
5. Helps maintain proper posture.
6. Assists individuals with strenuous jobs.
7. Is very lightweight and comfortable.
8. Is made of highly durable material.
