Relief for the spine
In modern times, back, sacral and neck pain are among the most annoying ailments. As the years go by, the spine becomes more and more exploited and begins to ache, especially if we are overweight, work in the wrong position, have suffered an injury due to muscle strain, or have been affected by diseases such as arthritis and osteoporosis.
Saunders' Extractor is a safe and effective therapy that relieves the pressure of the vertebrae on the nerve roots, which significantly relieves the associated pain and discomfort of the patient. The lift is most often used to relax and relieve pressure on the cervical and lumbar regions by mechanically loosening and stretching the soft tissues. The device consists of pneumatically extending elements of the extractor and a special pump that dispenses the force of the extractor.
The extractor allows us to apply traction, i.e. the appropriate application of force, which allows us to increase the intervertebral space. Thanks to the presented method, we can stretch the disc and create a vacuum that will suction the herniated disc, reduce the compression of the nerve root, through decompression accelerate the healing process of the nerve tissue and reduce pain and numbness.
In hospitals we have Saunders lift, which allows the application of high traction force. The presented treatment is a great complement to the basic treatment, which additionally allows to increase the effectiveness of the applied manual therapy.
