The Top 3 Lumbar Traction Devices

Lower back traction devices are probably the fastest and most effective tools to decompress your spine, relax your aching muscles and take the pressure off a pinched nerve that’s hurting like hell.

The 3 Outstanding Benefits of a Lumbar Traction Device

1. 81% Success Rate for Eliminating Pain – traction therapy, the practice of lengthening the spine (known as Spinal Decompression) has been proven to help reduce or even eliminate back pain.

In a study published by the American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation in 1999, it was found that 81% of those with mild to moderately severe pain found symptomatic relief with traction therapy.

2. Effective and time-saving – it takes just 3-15 minutes per day – instead of wasting 1-2 hours every week driving to your local chiropractor or physical therapist for treatment.

3. Less Expensive than other solutions – a lumbar traction device can save you about 90% of the price you’d pay if you got the same treatment from your local chiropractor.

But:

how to choose from the many lumbar traction devices in the market?

Here’s where I can help.

The 3 Best Lumbar Traction Devices (2023) 

#1 – The Nubax Trio

The Nubax Trio is made in Australia and becoming more and more popular in the last couple of years.

It takes 10 minutes to assemble and it requires only 3-6 minutes of daily use to get both fast and long-lasting lower back pain relief.

Here is a video demonstrating how to use the Nubax Trio:

The Nubax Trio has traction control, which allows you to control the amount of traction applied. You can start out slowly and gradually increase traction with time.

If you’d like other reviews, you can see a ton on them on Amazon.

As for the price, Nubax Trio price is the same no matter where you order it from.

Amazon is a great choice because of its reliable return policy.

#2 – The New Saunders Lumbar Home Traction Device

The Saunders Lumbar Traction Device is manufactured in USA and widely used in Chiropractors’ clinics.

It has a non-slip surface to effectively grab onto the torso to provide an effective pull, and foam wedges for the head and legs are included to make application of traction more comfortable for the lumbar region.

It effectively applies up to 200 pounds of traction controlled by a patented pump/gauge that allows immediate pressure relief, if necessary, during treatment.

It’s recommended (as always), to get instructions from your doctor before you start using the Saunders Lumbar HomeTrac.

The Saunders HomeTrac comes with an instructional video and user’s guide, but I recommend getting specific usage instructions from your doctor, to be on the safe side.

As always folks, be safe and make sure you don’t have a health condition which doesn’t allow the use of traction devices. The best way to make sure is to check with your doctor first.

Always start slowly and work your way up, let your body adjust to the treatment by starting gently and gradually.

#3 – The Spinal Stretch

The Teeter Hang Ups Company has a great reputation and their products are carefully tested, reliable and safe.

The Spinal Stretch is compact, has a lightweight design and requires no assembly.It’s easy to use and can be tucked inside a bag or suitcase for travel or work.

While the Nubax Trio requires only 3-6 minutes of treatment per day, the Teeter Spinal Stretch “demands” for 15 minutes of your spare time, a door and a nonslip floor (carpet or rug).

Spinal Stretch is safe and cannot be overused. Any attempt to over stretch your low back will result in your body sliding on the carpet or rug.

And now over to you:

Have you ever tried spine traction to relieve your lumbar pain?
