INTRODUCTION

Introduction of “Dtrac”

We can call this invention leads new paradigm for how cure and heal low back pain!

Traction and Curvature simultaneously.

CURVATURE

INTRODUCTION

cervical

thoracic

lumbar

Traction is treated for spinal disorders such as lumbago and hernia of an disk, but it must be performed considering lordosis otherwise its efficacy could be reduced.

Extension Traction

Increase the disc spaces Reduce pain relief

Infrared Effect

Lumbar Lordosis

Adjust the optimal angle of spinal lordosis

Naturally push the pelvis of body under own weight

91.5 % infrared rays helps to blood circulation, pain relief

See the video clip as below, X-Ray C-Arm video shows increasing intervertebral disc spaces by using DTRC

The lumbar intervertebral disc spaces(L3-L5) are increased up to 4mm, with 20 ~ 30Kg force of traction by using DTRAC

With Negative pressure on the disc, the disc intends to returned back to the position due to DTRAC traction

[How to use]

a) Under his own weight,

b) D-trac pushes the sacrum up to 1cm.

c) It helps to increase the space of disc,

specially within lumbar 3~5th by 3~4mm.

Principle of functioning – ① Extension traction

FUNCTIONING

Before With D-trac After

Principle of functioning – ② Lumbar lordosis

Adjust hypolodosis and hyperlordosis of lumbar spine to the optimal angle of lordosis

FUNCTIONING

Principle of functioning – ③ Infrared Effect

FUNCTIONING

Infrared Effect

The material of DTRC, NL-3YZ [zirconia] generates 91.5 % infrared rays, it helps to blood circulation, pain relief and muscle relaxation
