Traction - Carex Head Halter Over-Door Traction : The Head Halter Over-Door Traction Set is designed to reduce head and neck compression as it provides relief to those dealing with minor cervical spine fractures, disc bulges, pinched nerves, herniations and arthritis. When used properly, pressure is relieved from tendons and muscle tissue. Tool-free assembly and the capability of fitting over nearly every door make this device perfect for every home. Treatment is patient specific as the user, in conjunction with a physician, determines how much water to place in the weight bag. In addition to the amount of counterweight, the time of use should also be determined by a qualified physician. Complete set includes a water weight bag, a cervical spreader bar, a nylon braided rope, an over-door traction clamp and an adjustable hook-and-loop halter. This unit features all the benefits of physical therapy traction at home, but without making an appointment and paying the high co-pay fees. Assembly is easy and tool-free. Everything needed to get started comes in the package. Weight bag can be filled from 2 lbs. to 20 lbs. All parts of the head halter are Latex free. Traction weight bag features leak-proof seal to ensure weighted water stays in the bag.
