The Cervical HomeTrac^®

Since 1982 more than 40,000 health care providers have chosen the Saunders Cervical Traction Device to use in their clinics. But when many of their patients tried to use seated over-the-door traction at home, they…

• Couldn't relax because traction applied while sitting has been shown to cause higher levels of muscle activity than supine traction, making the traction less effective.
• Risked aggravation of the TMJ or "jaw joints" because of forces applied to the jaw through the chin strap.
• Couldn't achieve the amount of force required by their health care professional (over-the-door devices are limited to 20 lbs).
• Couldn't achieve the proper angle of force delivery required by their health care professional.
• Were uncomfortable-many patients had to return to the clinic for most costly cervical traction treatments.

The Cervical HomeTrac:

• Directs traction forces toward the occiput (back of the head) thereby preventing compression of the TMJ through the chin.
• Applies up to 50 pounds of traction.
• Ensures safety- user has total control of force at all times
• Enables easy home traction without assistance.
• Allows control of the angle of traction delivery, from 15 to 25 degrees.
• Includes patented self-adjusting neck wedges that rotate through a 30 degree arc and are removable for easy cleaning or replacement.
• Provides a comfortable and cost-effective option to continuing clinical traction treatments.
• Includes instructional video, user's guide and deluxe carrying case.

Replicates clinical traction!

Patented pump design incorporates an easy-to-use "click-in-place" mechanism for pumping, sustaining and releasing the traction.

Gauge reads in in pounds/kg of traction to provide feedback to the user and to promote consistency in treatment.

Adjustable extension foot (optional) allows for additional traction angles of 20 degrees and 25 degrees.
