Neck pain is almost as common as back pain in the United
States.The number of neck pain sufferers is staggering
and appears to be rising. Between 38 and 50 percent of
adults have sore neck at some point.
Cause of Neck Pain
Pain in the neck can be triggered by pinch nerve, neck
spasm, stress, trauma, injury, prolonged bad posture,
etc. The pain can range from very mild discomfort to severe,
burning pain.
Whiplash
Whiplash is a neck injury that most often happens to drivers
who are hit unexpectedly from behind by another car. Most
of these injuries recover fast, but 10% of this whiplash
suffers will have lasting pain. The pain can be so severe
that sufferer can not work anymore or enjoy a normal lifestyle.
Disc Degeneration
Disc degeneration is a common cause of neck pain and most
likely appears by middle aged people. As we age, the degenerative
changes of the discs and facet joints of the cervical spine
cause neck pain, usually felt as a stiff neck. Due
to many years of wear and tear, the discs become thinner
and this causes the spaces between the vertebrae to become
narrower. If the nerves in the cervical area are becoming
irritated or pinched, this may lead to numbness or tingling
in the neck and shoulders.
Stress and Tension
People who sit for long periods bending their head build
up stress in the cervical spine causing neck pain. The
muscles at the back of your neck must always be tensed
to avoid your head falling forwards when you are sitting.
Most common example is a computer job.
The combination of stress and bad postures causes neck
spasm. In most cases this type of neck pain can be reduced
or eliminated by adjusting the computer position and changing
some work habits
How to treat neck pain?
There are many ways to treat neck pain. You can use at-home
remedies, physical therapy or alternative treatments like
chiropractor and acupuncturist.
It is important to find a certified professional who
can analyze the cause of your neck problem first. For
severe acute neck pain resulting from an accident or injury,
doctors usually recommend bed rest, a neck brace or collar,
and cold treatment (such as an ice pack) for neck pain
relief.
What is Neck Traction?
A common neck pain treatment by chiropractors is neck
traction.Neck traction is commonly performed to help relieve
muscle spasms in the neck and shoulders, and to help relieve
the pain of pinched nerves in the neck.
During the Cervical traction the weight of the head is
gently lifted off the neck anatomy and may temporarily
decompress pinched nerve roots and result in reduction
of herniated intervertebral disk. Visiting a chiropractor
is the best way to get useful "adjustments"
to the spine.
After the treatment you may obtain a neck traction device
for home use. Some chiropractors may hesitate getting
the traction device for you fearing it would result in
the loss of your business.
Keep visiting your chiropractor after you have received
a home traction device. The chiropractic adjustment is
still beneficial and he can answer your questions about
the use of the neck traction device.

Neck Traction by Air
An effective and affordable device is the inflatable neck
traction device. Unlike over-the-door traction device
the ChiSoft neck traction device does not us a bag of
water.
Just place it around your neck and pump the inflation
bulb until you feel a comfortable stretch. Once the air
traction device is filled up with air, it will lift the
weight of the head while gently
stretches your tight muscles, and relieves joint and nerve
pressure.
Start at lower tensions to be certain the treatment does
not increase your discomfort level significantly. Start
with one traction session per day in mid-afternoon or
evening. Proceed to two sessions per day, one in mid-afternoon
and one just before bedtime.
Air neck traction units are very portable and can be
used almost anywhere. The simplicity of the design makes
it the ideal tool for home or office use.
