The traction sling includes a chin strap and a neck strap loosely attached together in spaced-apart relation to each other, one end of each strap being detachable from the corresponding end of the other strap to partially disassemble the apparatus facilitating positioning of the sling under the person's head. A leader device is provided for temporary attachment to the detached end of one of the straps for pulling the sling into position under the person's head. The invention also includes an anchor device in the form of a frame detachably connected to the back of a spine board on which the person is laid, and it includes adjustable means for applying tension to the traction sling and to the person's neck and spine.
