00:00What's up?

00:06It's Radar, hanging out and relaxing here at Precision Healing and Wellness in Brookfield.

00:12And Nova Gescheitmeier is here once again.

00:15We're talking about all the different services that they offer and the treatments, including

00:19chiropractic.

00:20Now, Nova, we have talked about chiropractic care before.

00:24Can you explain what traction is all about with chiropractic care?

00:28Traction therapy is a technique used to elongate the spine and decompress the discs in the

00:35spine to relieve pressure and pain on the muscles and nerves, and even the joints in

00:39the back.

00:40So how does traction therapy help with pain management?

00:44So traction reduces compression on the spine and allows for proper blood flow, nerve flow,

00:49and movement throughout the spine.

00:51It creates space between the vertebrae and it relieves pain so that the chiropractic

00:55adjustments can work even better and longer.

00:59Can it help with herniated discs or sciatica issues?

01:03Absolutely.

01:04It helps decompress the bulging discs, herniated discs, just to allow some space and take away

01:10some of that pressure.

01:11And for sciatica, it can ease nerve compression and ease some of the pain that can shoot down

01:16the legs.

01:17So adjustments help with immediate realigning of the spine, where traction can work alongside

01:23that to help the adjustments last longer and help the body reprocess what it needs

01:28to to decompress for a longer length of time.

01:31And if someone has never had traction therapy before?

01:34So the patient lies on a specially designed table that actually acts almost like a little

01:39mini massage, rolling to help separate and decompress some of that spinal tissue and

01:43those discs.

01:45It's comfortable, it's relaxing, it can be anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes.

01:49It helps with the chiropractic and the ease of the adjustments.

01:53What advice would you have for someone who's coming in for chiropractic care or traction

01:57therapy for the first time?

02:00Be consistent.

02:02People are looking for a one-off fix.

02:04Be consistent, come to your appointments and communicate with your provider.

02:08If something isn't working for you or with you, let them know and we'll make things adjusted

02:12to what fits your body.

02:14Nova, thanks for enlightening everyone and discussing chiropractic care versus traction.

02:20Thank you so much for all you are doing.

02:22Absolutely.
