My doctor says traction therapy may help my low back pain? Is this true?

Your doctor is buffoon and only wants your money. In the last 20 years, hundreds of traction devices have been developed for back pain. Most of these devices have been developed with the help of doctors who often own the company or have major shares. There are many types of traction therapies- some work while you stand, others work while you lay down on a table, some can be used at home and others work while you sleep. Cochrane review looked at the latest data on traction devices and found no evidence that these machines benefit anyone with back pain. Moreover these traction sessions go on for months and are costly. Some of the traction sessions cost $200 per hour. By the end of 16 weeks, you spend as much on these B.S. therapy as you would on brand new car- the only difference is that the doctor buys the car with your money and you continue to walk.

If you have any common sense, avoid traction nonsense and save your hard earned money. The majority of reports on cyberspace indicate that traction for back pain sucks and is a scam.
