Intersegmental Traction in Bloomington

Intersegmental traction is an effective chiropractic therapy from Bloomington Chiropractors, that induces passive motion into the spine. How it works is you lie down on the table in which there are rollers just underneath the surface of the table. These rollers can be adjusted depending on your chiropractic condition to gently and specifically stretch your spinal joints and muscles.

Understanding Intersegmental Traction in Bloomington

Intersegmental traction helps to effectively reestablish normal range of motion to your spine by increasing mobility throughout the spine. It helps to facilitate muscle relaxation by significantly reducing muscle spasms. When your muscles become more relaxed, the vertebrae begin to move normally and your vertebral discs can begin to regain the normal space. This will help prevent abnormal wear and tear on the vertebral discs and prevents further injury and reduces the arthritis process. The motion of the rollers allows an increase of blood flow and oxygen to discs, ligaments and muscles. All of these benefits help improve balance, strength, flexibility, and mobility.
