Important Safeguards - Mastercare CN-A Manual De Instrucciones

ENGLISH
We congratulate you on your decision to seek a healthier life through the use of Back-A-Traction from Mastercare.
Back-A-Traction is a gravity traction table that will help you relieve and prevent back pain and the wearing out of joints. It
is a good tool to help you regain your back health, and to maintain it for the rest of your life.
Back-A-Traction's unique feature, the Sliding Backrest, moves on rollers on the steel frame. This patented feature makes it
possible to obtain optimal beneficial traction at a low inversion angle. While your spine is extended, the back is perfectly
supported allowing the muscles to relax completely. You will experience an unloading of the pressure of gravitational
forces from your discs and joints.
To get optimal results, you should alternate stretching exercises and total relaxation. The passive traction and the stretching
exercises on the table involve stretching of the muscles, muscular attachments, tendons and crucial ligaments of your entire
back and legs. In the beginning this may cause a slight stiffness, which is a sign that the mentioned parts of your body are
not used to this kind of stretching.
Even if you become sore in the beginning, you may continue your exercises with less intensity, as the soreness should
disappear as the muscles and tendons increase their flexibility. Daily use of Back-A-Traction will lead to a healthier life.
