DISK DR. NECK - $299.00 
The
Disk Dr. Neck is a medical device designed to treat herniated (bulging)
and degenerative discs in the cervical spine (neck). The Disk Dr. is
an orthopedic traction instrument that can reduce the pressure on cervical
discs through widening of intervertebral space. This unloading of the
discs can quickly provide significant pain relief for neck pain and
radiculopathy in the arms.
Recommended
For:
• Herniated,
Bulging (slipped) Cervical Discs
• Degenerative Cervical Discs
• Radiating (nerve) Pain in Shoulders and Arms
How
It Works:
Through the use of air pressure, scientifically designed air tubes inside
the Disk Dr. Neck expand the device vertically to apply a traction force
to the cervical spine.

air from the Traction Belt by depressing the Air Release Pin.

5. Adjust each side of the Outer Attaching Panel so that the belt fits
snugly and comfortably against the neck.
