begins.
• Always STOP a treatment before removing, or adjusting harnesses.
• Check the traction cable for knots, twisting, fraying and damage of any kind.

the effectiveness of a treatment.
• See the contraindications, warnings, and precautions in this manual before administering a
treatment to a patient.

the Dynatron 900+

position the patient.
CERVICAL
,
THORACIC AND PELVIC HARNESSES
.
The cervical, thoracic and pelvic harnesses
must be properly fitted according to manufacturers’ instructions. Belts should be securely
tightened without creating discomfort. Harnesses secure the patient to the traction device while
supporting the musculature, thus allowing for the proper application of the distraction forces.
€
POSITIONING THE PATIENT AND TABLE
.
As the effect and effectiveness of traction are related
to the position of the body as well as the force and duration of pull, make sure that the
positioning of the patient and the table are according to prescribed protocols. The use of
pillows or bolsters under the arms, head, knees, or ankles may be necessary to achieve proper
positioning. See published literature.
