ABSTRACT:
A therapeutic treatment machine for alternatingly applying equal amounts of compression and traction to the body of a patient includes a platform having an upper body support pad with selectively controllably resistance to forward and backward displacement, rotatable rollers to support the lower back, buttocks and thighs of the patient, and a selectively controllable motor driven foot support platform displaceable forward and backward predetermined distances and speeds. The distance between the upper body support pad and the foot support platform is adjustable to accommodate differences in patient torso lengths and the magnitude of compressive and tractional force can be selectively controlled by the patient.
