ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises a pelvic harness for use in applying traction to the lumbar region of a patient. This harness forms a wide waist encircling band to which are attached a pair of posterior straps directly in line with the patient's spinal column and a pair of anterior straps for attachment over the anterior superior spine of the iliac crest of the patient's pelvis. These straps have a length sufficient to extend from the belt between the legs of the patient to connect to a traction device for applying traction to the patient.
