| Now there is an option beyond traditional methods for patients who are drowning in chronic low back pain. The new Orthotrac
Pneumatic Vest effectively alleviates intervertebral compression and chronic back pain. In fact, associated leg pain is
often relieved within minutes of application.
The Orthotrac is the only ambulatory treatment shown to decompress the spine. Using patented, patient- administered
pneumatic lifting, the vest is designed to lift a weight equal to 30% to 50% of body weight from the lumbar spine onto the
iliac crests.
A recent study of over 300 patients resulted in a significant (p< 0.01) functional improvement of 70% along with a significant (p<0.01) decrease of 28% in reported pain.
Orthotrac can can also decrease the cost of low back pain treatment. A recently published study showed that the Orthotrac
vest reduced the total overall cost per patient from $6,138 to $3,699.
The Orthotrac vest is designed to provide ambulatory treatment and reduce pain; allowing patients to return to work and to
their daily lifestyle with improved quality of life. | |
