What is "traction"?
Traction is a medical treatment that involves gently pulling a part of the body, typically the spine or limbs, to relieve pressure on the skeletal system and associated nerves. This technique is used to treat conditions such as spinal fractures, slipped discs, or joint dislocations by stretching and adjusting the affected area. Traction can be applied by hand by healthcare professionals or through mechanical devices designed to provide controlled pulling forces. The goal of traction is to reduce pain, improve movement, and support the healing process of muscle or bone injuries.
