Flexion distraction is a therapy which utilises a specific chiropractic flexion distraction table. The Table allows flexion and side flexion to the lumbo-pelvic region of the spine whilst the patient is lying face down in a non-weight bearing position. The table can then restore movement and stretch deconditioned tissue without pain or guarding. The flexion distraction technique is commonly used in cases of nerve entrapment, spinal stenosis and lumbar disc injuries.
