The y-strap adjusting technique in Knoxville TN is effective in treating cervical spine conditions. The technique requires that the patient lift their head while the strap goes around the underside of the patient's neck. The strap is then tightened comfortably as Dr. Josh Rucker holds on to a handle and pulls at an inferior to superior direction with relation to the patient's spine.


The Y-Strap Adjusting Technique in Knoxville TN

This technique can be implemented as a slow, steady, pull in a superior direction. This approach works as an effective mode of cervical spine decompression to relieve nerve pressure caused by herniated discs or foraminal compression. Repeated use of this technique is effective in relieving local neck pain and radicular arm pain.

The y-strap technique can also be used in a high velocity low amplitude fashion to quickly apply a superior pull on the patient's neck. This technique is effective in restoring normal motion in the neck when excessive tightness prevents other adjusting techniques. This approach often produces a lot of movement in the neck and possibly throughout other areas of the spine, leading to an immediate feeling of release and relief.
