A system for applying a patient-specific treatment profile during spinal therapy. The system includes a control system (190) for implementing a spinal treatment profile, an actuator (170) for producing a tensile force as defined in the treatment profile based on commands from the control system, a patient interface device (120) configured to apply the tensile force from the actuator to the spine of a patient, and a feedback system(160) configured to provide a metric resulting from the application of the tensile force to the spine to the control system, wherein the treatment profile includes a limit based on the metric related to the application of the tensile force to the spine such that, when the application of the tensile force to the spine results in a metric that exceeds the limit, the control system reduces the tensile force applied by the actuator to the spine. |
