Traction and Compression of the Lumbar Spine
👉 Starting Position :
▪️Supine with the legs flexed at the hip and knee to eliminate lumbar lordosis (Thomas' maneuver).
▪️The feet are positioned on the table so that the toes can be braced against the examiner's thighs.
▪️The examiner stands at the foot of the table, one leg back, and grasps the patient's calfs from behind (Fig a)
Or he can support the lower legs on his forearms and use his elbows to hold them against his body (Fig b) .

★Procedure :

From the starting position, the examiner exerts
traction on the lower extremities by shifting his
weight to his back leg. This produces a distracting force in the lumbar spine if lordosis has been eliminated and the pelvis lifted so that it can slide down the table. Compression is applied cephalad with the legs extended,
(Figure c) shows the application of three-dimensional traction using an antalgic posture.

★Pathologic Findings :

In the presence of a painful lumbar spine dysfunction (restriction or posterolateral prolapse), traction generally alleviates pain while compression may exacerbate it. With a posteromedial prolapse, traction usually intensifies pain, serving to distinguish the lesion from a posterolateral prolapse.
