A cervical visualization harness for use in applying traction to sedated and/or anesthetized patients. The cervical visualization harness includes a body portion and a pair of straps which extend from the body portion up over the shoulders of the patient and down the patient's body to appropriate points either between the patient's feet or to either side of the foot of the operating room table, to achieve a desired position of the patient's shoulders. The straps are secured to the OR table by hook and loop type fasteners. The hook and loop type fasteners allow for easy adjustment and removal of the straps. A string tie at the chest joins the two straps, keeping them centered relative to the patient. The patient's own weight holds the body portion of the cervical visualization harness intact. This cervical visualization harness and a method of using the same maximize patient care by increasing efficiency and minimizing incidental trauma which occurs during conventional treatment.
