HOME- Self Cervical Traction

[@theresafernando9882]

I had neck pain for more than 2 years and I sought treatment with my primary doctor, acupuncturist and several chiropractors. Nothing helped my pain improve and I suffered with pain for that entire time. My X-ray also showed loss of normal curvature of cervical spine. . It took a simple video like this and a towel to reduce my pain by more than half. Don’t know why no one suggested cervical traction. Love love love this. You saved my life!!!

[@arpanbalarYT]

Make sure to tell anyone who needs to know about cervical curvature; it's very common in today's social media addicts.

[@clboymom9467]

What a rewarding job you have! Giving people the tools to relieve pain and getting immediate results on the patients you work on!

[@dr.kevinbrown9251]

Thanks... I definitely love what I do!!!

[@SD-ov8hp]

I thank God for Doctors like you who think of alleviating pain in the lives of all those who are suffering and perhaps have nobody to turn too , specially the bedridden , housebound etc . I am a crippled person myself and most of the time unable to make it to visit the doctors . I am suffering from Spondolysis and when I get excruciating pain in my neck causing numbness in the arms and fingers Doctors advice traction which has not been possible because of my crippled feet . I cried out to God for help since I have been suffering with pain for more than a week and last night I came across your video . I managed to exercise my neck as shown by you and felt so much better . Thanks a lot Dr and God bless you for reaching out to suffering humanity unselfishly .

[@ynot6781]

He's not a medical doctor , he has a dr in chiropractics , no med school , he would be the least qualified to help I suggest you see a real DR A Dr of osteopathic medicine , one who went to med school for a minimum of 12 years that actually fix the problem or best way to handle it

[@sgtprestonoftheyukon2423]

I've been doing this stretch several times a day and it's given me SO MUCH RELIEF !!! it feels good !!!! And the feeling is returning to my ring finger and pinky on my left hand !!!! I can even tell my walking is getting better . THANKS A BUNCH ☺💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝

Oh, wow. This actually has been helping my tension headaches that sometimes trigger my migraines.

[@manafestvision]

I’ve trained years in Kyokushin karate and took a huge break from training. I started training in aikido recently and I had to relearn how to fall and roll - in practice I didn’t fall properly and I tweaked my neck - I just did 2 sets of this for 15 seconds and it was instant relief. I cannot thank you enough for this video ✨✨

[@dr.kevinbrown9251]

So glad it helped you!!!

I have neck pain due to dance performances and acrobatics. Today, I had pain that started while running an errand. When I got to my car, I was in terrible pain. I'm sitting in my car watching your video and I'm getting IMMEDIATE RELIEF while using my jacket! THANK YOU!!!

[@oracleskai242]

I started only four days and was in a lot of pain, tightness in my head, neck, shoulders. Occasional headaches. I also had numbness and tingling down both arms, which was awful every time I laid down. I immediately felt better and slowly my symptoms are decreasing. I appreciate you so much Dr thank you. Can you do a video on how to sleep better with a painful neck? Thanks 💙

[@vianna0325]

I HAD a military neck and nerve pinched and having severe neck pain. By doing this EXERCISE several times,it has given me much RELIEF. This is one of the best home remedies.

Tried this and it worked IMMEDIATELY, felt my neck crack both sides, then massive relief thank you so much🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@delythamos4906]

I had severe pain in my elbow and arm. Having had that shoulder replaced about 3 yrs ago I was terrified something had gone wrong with the prosthesis ! I did this procedure and had instant relief. I am so relieved besides being thankful for the pain relief! Thank you so much

[@adam20krl]

Started having pain just like you were describing. Thank you for making a video online, you're great and took care of it within 10 min.

[@kathyberry1]

God bless you Dr. Brown! I tried this and it really worked! gave me the relief from neck pain and tightness that I needed between Chiro visits...out of all the neck exercises I tried - this one worked! So grateful

[@dr.kevinbrown9251]

[@th3-video-makers.]

Hi good morning my disc out from the neck spine plz give me advice and how to masage

[@cherr8585]

WOW!! I have had neck pain forever, or so it seems. I am 70 and I figured this was just normal aging. I was investigating neck hammocks. I came upon this video, tried it, and immediately felt relief. I am going to do this and to heck with a neck hammock! Thank you, Dr. Brown. I like this self-help video. I would like more self-help videos!

[@dr.kevinbrown9251]

Cher R I am so happy u are feeling better. And more self help videos are on the way

[@MsBesamemucho]

This was amazing. I felt my neck being pulled and my side muscles or joints or whatever that was cracking.

[@ellybear81]

My substitute PT did cervical traction after the ortho finally did a neck X-ray and saw that all my shoulder pain and arms/thumbs numbness was all in my neck amd I felt almost immediate relief!!! I had been being treated for carpal tunnel by my chiropractor and shoulder pain by ortho and traction has been the only relief I’ve been getting

[@cherisfloridalife]

I just found your video. I can't get to my chiropractor ( Covid-19) This helps me! Thanks!!

[@Fubblin]

This helped a lot, thank you. I am unable to do any of the chin tuck remedies to alleviate my pinched nerve because of the pain and this stretch gave me some desperate relief.

[@fungusamunguscom]

Unbelievable works better than any neck Hammock, I am a new fan of Dr. Brown.

[@terrimays1578]

Agreed much better. My Neck Hammock is disappointing.

Thanks Dr Brown for your video. I've had neck, shoulder and arm pain that radiates from the neck and have been pretty much demobilized by the pain for the past 2 days. I just found this video and the towel traction has made a tremendous difference.

dominga radam great technique....hope you get relief!!

[@roseannegagliardi7546]

Will definitely be trying this as I have been having intermittent pain down back of left arm where tricep is for around 3 weeks (Tricep tendinitis I am thinking) and had ecg which was clear so must have been triggered by a Gonstead Chiro I had 5 sessions with around 5-6 weeks ago who also triggered severe occipital neuralgia and vertigo.I have now found a wonderful Chiro who tried the dry needling and adjustment and will slowly work on getting things back to some normality.

[@sarikapatel5156]

Did you completely fine?

[@milicakostic5557]

Great explanations and exercises! Thanks, doc! I had that terrible pain on the left side of my neck that goes all the way down to my left arm. I often can't sleep well. And it's due to spending too much time at my desk while working and probably I also got hurt during the previous moving out. The doctors told me the pinched nerv is between C6 and C7. I am on therapy for 2 months an more and nothing really relieves the symptoms for good. Because of this Covid-19 situation, currently I am not able to go and take an X-ray of my cervical spine and get further instructions. I hope these exercises will help. Looking forward to seeing more videos.

[@maybe4256]

you saved my life with this hack ❤ no more constantly clicking my neck in public

[@jeremieproctor670]

I interlock my fingers behind my neck and squeeze my elbows together and pull back slowly. On good days i get 8-10 good pops from between my shoulders and up into my head. The instant stress relief and relaxation is incredible but ive always wondered if this was dangerous.. thanks for your video! I will give the towel a try.

[@reasonwhy5030]

I do the same - without towel can do a stretch immediately. I have posted a question, am I initiating a problem elsewhere. .

[@artsygirl3878]

It did for me, I felt a couple of clicks and finally, it helped loosen my neck tightness

[@dimitellme]

Clear concise explanation of the problem and the solution ... Excellent. Thank you, much appreciated.

[@dr.kevinbrown9251]

dimitellme thanks

[@scotthuffman5475]

Nice post. i dealt with conic neck pain as a result of a herniated disc. Upward pressure on the head relieved the pain but it was a short term solution the pain and it the traction device was worn over night I would be fine over the short tern. I finally got a C5-C6 fusion in 1997, which completely cured the problem. Now the procedure is out patient for the most part. If possible a disc trim or used of carnivora born is much better than a surgeon taking the bone out of your hip. You do not have to live with all the brutal neck pain and numbness in the arm. Find the best orthopedic surgeon around and get the disc fused. In a few weeks all the misery will be history. You will also enjoy life much more. Conic pain sucks, especially close to you head.

I have experienced a significant amount of pain in both of my hands and even a case of trigger finger. However, these techniques have helped me and I will continue to do this. I plan to see a chiropractor in my area soon. Thank you again!

[@annemariebenoit4263]

My physio therapist referred me to this, just in case some people are nervous about trying something recommended by a chiropractor. I know not everyone believes in them. I find hold the towel higher than he initially puts it best. Look up a diagram of the occipitals if you are unsure where you want to feel the pull from the towel. Very good for migraine sufferers who have muscle pain triggers so long as they heed his advice that this should not cause pain. Suboccipitals are connected to that knife through the eye pain migraine sufferers often get.

[@ynot6781]

He's not a medical doctor , he's got a certificate , a doctor of chiropractics . Like calling a plumber a drain surgeon.

Thank you Dr Kevin Brown. This video was very helpful. ✨🙏💫

[@RobertLongM]

Key point - if it causes pain - then the stenosis is not simply compression. But traction won't restore the curve. I like the CerviGuard for curve correction And correcting the posture corrects the posture The towel thing does bring relief to the muscles - but hopefully no one has Cranial Or Atlanto-Axial instability or they'll pop the Occiput up further. But if basilar invagination - this will feel like a cure - but only temp.

Funny seeing this video right now. For the last almost two months my right arm has been numb and in a ton of pain. Seen a massage therapist 5 times and the chiropractor 3 times before all this covid stuff shut everything down. I was in the drug store earier today and i grabbed the last dr. Ho neck comforter. Threw it on, pumped it up and 20 minutes later after taking it off, the pain and numbness is completely gone. Im so relieved. It was driving me literally insane. And all along i thought was my shoulder because that’s where a lot of the pain felt like it was originating.
