Activeforever Saunders Lumbar HomeTrac (Saunders Lumbar Home Traction Device) - Manual (Page 3)

Before You Begin
Review the guidelines you received from your healthcare provider
regarding the:
• amount of traction recommended (never so much that it hurts)
• duration (amount of time) of each treatment
• hold and relax times if intermittent traction is recommended
• number of treatments recommended per week or per day
For lumbar (low back) traction, remove clothing, belts and accessories
around the trunk and lower back area. The upper and lower stabilization
belts will stay more secure if they are in contact with bare skin.
Therefore, for best results, remove your shirt and slide your pants
down below your hips or remove them.
