Overview
The BTL-6000 Traction Therapy unit is a professional system for cervical and lumbar spinal traction in physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and clinical settings. It applies precise, controlled mechanical traction to reduce load on intervertebral discs and nerve roots and to improve spinal mobility through a non-surgical approach.
Developed by BTL, the unit offers clinician control over treatment parameters and protocols while maintaining patient comfort and safety.
How traction works
The device applies a calculated traction force to the cervical or lumbar spine. This can help to:
- Reduce pressure on intervertebral discs.
- Contribute to relieving compression of nerve roots.
- Create negative pressure within the disc, so bulging or herniated discs may retract.
- Promote movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs.
- Support restoration of natural spinal alignment.
- Decrease paraspinal muscle spasms.
- Improve spinal flexibility and range of motion.
- Provide joint distraction.
Clinical applications
- Disc herniation, prolapse, and protrusion.
- Degenerative disc disease.
- Degenerative joint disease.
- Facet joint syndrome.
- Hypomobility.
- Joint pain.
- Chronic neck pain.
- Low back pain.
- Sciatica.
- Nerve root compression.
- Spondylosis (vertebral osteoarthritis).
- Muscle spasms related to the spine.
- Limited mobility due to spinal conditions.
