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.
- Air-inflated bellows provides smooth, controlled decompression- keeping muscles relaxed & overcoming guarding reflexes
- Even anterior & posterior decompression
- Increases joint space – reducing intradiscal pressure, radicular pain and spasms
- Twice as much traction as traditional home units (up to 35 lbs), yet much more comfortable and easy to use
- Neck Pain or Stiffness
- Tension Headaches Myofascial Pain in Neck or Shoulders
- Poor Range of Cervical Motion
- Muscle Spasms in Neck or Shoulders
- Numbness and Tingling in the Hands or Arms
- Whiplash Injuries
- TMJ Dysfunction
- Poor Posture
