Cervical traction devices

Does anyone have any experience with this?

I've read that the ones that go over the door can do some damage so I am looking into the ones that you pump up to separate the neck muscles, etc.

Any experiences will be appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Cervical traction devices

  • I'm no help. I'd just like to say that I thought this post was about the cervix. I was thinking "what's cervix traction? my god that sounds awful." Sorry, I have baby-making on the brain. You all can laugh at my expense now.

    Oh, good god. I don't even want to think about cervix traction.

    LOL

    Thanks for sharing, that made me laugh.

  • No clue but I totally read the subject wrong. I thought it meant cervical as in, well, your cervix. I thought you were asking about some device that makes you tighter down there. Embarrassed (guess I spent too much time reading in that thread about open marriages & multiple sex partners & thought it meant you were "loose" down there)

    Ha! Actually, I have quite the opposite problem. Not that anybody minds. ;-)

    I thought so too :)

    BUT. I actually know *something* about cervical traction devices. Or as Grammie calls them "neck stretchers". (This is what you mean, right?)

    Bryan's grandma (Grammie) has one that goes over the door. It looks like a sex swing. Or what I would picture a sex swing looks like. I thought this is what it was for like 3 days when we were visiting until I saw her using it. I've used it.....it works, and really stretches, but you do have to be pretty careful. Her daughter (Brys aunt) is a nurse, and got it for her. She thinks it has helped the hunch she has in her back (improves posture, etc).

    Yup, neck stretchers. :-)

    Haha, some of them do look like sex swings.

    My husband researched the ones that go over the door, versus the ones you use while laying down or standing up (not across the door), and he seems to think they can do damage. *I think he's crazy* LOL

    However, the ones that you pump up do look intriguing. :-)

    sw2b- i gotta ask...whats with the sudden nicey-nicey?

    I've always been nice. I actually am a very different person than you all think I am. And, yes, I realize I have shown you a different side of me than most people see so it's not your fault.

    Except when I am provoked.

    So, again.... why the change?

    I can dig it. I feel the same way a lot of times. Not just on the boards but in general too. I try to make sure to balance it though.

    Glad you're participating.

    Thanks. I am glad as well.

    I like being nice. It works for me.

    Hopefully, it can work on the board for all of us as well.
