What is pelvic traction?

Pelvic traction is a therapeutic technique used to relieve pain and improve mobility in the lower back and pelvis. It involves the application of a pulling force to the pelvis, often using specialized equipment or devices, to stretch the muscles and ligaments, alleviate pressure on the spine, and promote healing. This method can be beneficial for conditions such as sciatica, herniated discs, or muscle spasms. It is typically administered by healthcare professionals in clinical settings.
