Pronex

Pronex is the only traction device that uses a bellows technology to provide a gentle, even distraction of the cervical spine. The Pronex design supports the natural curve of the cervical spine and provides two unique design advantages: inline and counter traction. This combination creates an even distraction in the anterior and posterior cervical discs providing a better overall treatment. 

Additionally, because traction force is created by pressure applied to the occiput and the trapezius muscles, there is no strain on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).

Pronex cradles the head and neck on two soft foam cushions. One cushion supports the back of the head and the other rests against the top of the shoulders. An air-inflated bellows between the foam provides up to 35 lb. of continuously adjustable traction. As the bellows expands, the patient's head moves upward and supports the cervical curve, maintaining an even force that creates space between the cervical vertebrae. Patients have total control over the amount of traction applied. Squeezing the single-hand inflator bulb increases the pressure; a release knob gently reduces it. While Pronex offers the advantage of inline traction, lateral neck flexion of 15 and 22 degrees can also be obtained by utilizing the flexion wedge.

Best Brace for Lower Back Pain - Elite Medical - Back Braces Covered by Medicare

When you’re shopping for a back brace, you want the best back brace available to help your condition. But it can sometimes be hard to tell which back brace is right for you. That’s why we include pictures and full descriptions of all our back braces and their indicated uses.

Pain in the lumbar region is one of the most common types of back pain. The causes of lower back pain are many. One is a simple strain injury that you can get from reaching and twisting or lifting an object that is too heavy for you. Others include car accidents, falls, spinal stenosis, sciatica, bulging or herniated discs, and degenerative disc disease.

Strengthening the back muscles with exercise is a good way to prevent injury, but if you have already suffered a strain, a lower back brace can help.

It depends on your condition. Different lower back braces are best to combat different symptoms. All our lower back braces offer support, and some offer compression as well. You may be looking for a lower back brace to promote stability and proper posture. If you are prone to back spasms, a back brace that restricts motion may help.

Talk to your doctor about your specific condition and ask for recommendations about the best back brace for lower back pain for you. While a back brace isn’t a cure, it can provide much-needed relief while you undergo treatment from a doctor or chiropractor. Additionally, if your doctor recommended surgery but you are trying to avoid this route, a back brace can help you stay more comfortable while you buy time.

Our back braces are strong, durable and made to last. You can wear yours all day and you can even wear it to sleep if necessary. These back braces are breathable, so they won’t make you sweaty, and they’re lightweight and fit easily under clothing, so you don’t have to worry about questions from nosy neighbors or co-workers.
