<p>A cervical spine traction apparatus has a generally rearwardly open collar member which has a front portion and a pair of generally rearwardly extending lateral portions. Upwardly open rod supporting housings are provided in the lateral portions. A pair of upwardly extending rods are received within the housing. A rearwardly open chin support is adjustably secured to the rods in overlying relationship with respect to the collar member. The chin support has a front portion and a pair of generally rearwardly extending lateral portions. The chin support may be independently adjusted as to each rod to thereby provide asymmetrical traction to the user or may be so adjusted as to provide symmetrical traction, if desired. A back support member is adjustably secured to the chin support and to the collar member. Such securement may be effected by adjustable straps. The collar member, chin support and back support preferably have rigid body portions with underlying padding. The rods may be mounted for forward and backward movement during adjustment of the apparatus while putting it one the user.</p> |
