    smarTraC feaTures Device Design The SmarTRAC is a combination of computer technology, functional design, and operational convenience. The device is intended for use by professional users only, such as qualified personnel in physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and adjacent areas. The device is ideal for lumbar and cervical traction. Sequential programming is possible in order to program combinations of traction which can be stored as favorites for later use.

  • Page 10 smarTraC feaTures NOTE Single Progressive Traction and Single Regressive Traction are not often used as single therapy programs, but most often in combination with other traction types to start and finish a combined traction treatment. NOTE Starting a combined traction protocol with regressive traction is not possible. It only lowers a previous programmed Traction Force towards zero in a configured number of Steps or towards the Traction Force value programmed.
