WHAT ARE TRACTION CHAIRS IN STRATFORD?

They are essential for serious chiropractic adjustments and back pain. A traction chair is a fully adjustable seat that chiropractors use to correct spinal imperfections and improve upon posture for patients. The chair is excellent at relieving pressure on the back while supporting the patients’ shoulders and neck. They use gravity to compress gaps in your neck while relieving pressure on legs and any lower extremities, making it easy for the chiropractor to evaluate and work on your back.
