How Pronex™ and Pronex™ II work

Pronex™ cradles the reclining patient's head and neck on two soft foam cushions. One cushion supports the occiput and the other rests against the upper trapezius. An air-inflated bellows between them is capable of providing up to 35 lbs of continuously adjustable traction. Pronex™ II cradles the reclining patients head and neck on one soft foam cushion that supports the occiput. An air-inflated bellows rests against the upper trapezius. As the bellows expands one the Pronex™ and Pronex™ II , it lifts the head upward supporting the cervical curve and maintaining an even distraction in the anterior and posterior cervical discs. Patients have total control over the amount of traction applied. Squeezing an inflator bulb increases the pressure, a release knob gently reduces it. There's no strain on the temporomandibular joint.

Pays for Itself
