At Village Family Clinic, we’re committed to offering advanced chiropractic treatments that promote healing, restore movement, and enhance spinal health. One of our most effective and relaxing therapies is Intersegmental Traction (IST)—a technique designed to gently stretch and mobilize the spine for improved function and lasting relief.
Intersegmental Traction uses a specialized table with motorized rollers that move up and down the length of your spine. As the rollers glide beneath you, they gently decompress the spinal joints, helping to increase mobility and flexibility in the vertebrae. This rhythmic motion stimulates blood flow to the spinal discs, ligaments, and muscles, delivering essential oxygen and nutrients that support faster healing and tissue repair.
The benefits go beyond comfort. IST helps reduce muscle spasms, alleviate stiffness, and improve overall spinal alignment. By relaxing the muscles and loosening tight areas, Intersegmental Traction prepares the spine for more effective manual adjustments and other chiropractic treatments. Many patients report that their adjustments feel smoother and their recovery times shorten after incorporating IST into their care routine.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic back pain, or simply seeking to improve your spinal health, Intersegmental Traction can play an important role in your wellness plan. It’s a gentle, non-invasive therapy that supports the body’s natural ability to heal and function at its best.
