Dr. Nate’s Thoughts: First time I saw this I thought it was a torcher device lol. It’s definitely not but it can help prevent pain later on. The Pettibon Cervical Neck Traction unit is a simple product that can be easily placed on your door at home. I have mine mounted to the walk at work.
When first starting, I recommended starting with no more than 10 reps 1x/day for the first week, then slowly working your way up to 60 reps/day. Going to quickly can create some discomfort. 1 Repetition = a slight bend in the knees for 1-2 sec which gives a gentle stretch in the neck and upper back. I will often feel the stretch all the way down the spine and occasionally get some audible back release in the spine which feels great.
This is the type we use in the office. The key to using this is consistency. It doesn’t take long to get this in your daily routine.
