Is it okay to do traction at home for cervical spondylosis

Cervical spondylosis is generally not recommended to be treated with traction at home, and it is best to go to the hospital for appropriate treatment with the help of a specialist.
Traction therapy is a common treatment for cervical spondylosis and can play a supplementary therapeutic role. However, it requires specialized traction facilities, which are not available at home. Moreover, traction therapy requires certain professional skills, which are difficult for ordinary patients to fully master and perform effective traction therapy.
If traction therapy is performed at home by oneself, there may be operation errors, which may damage the cervical vertebrae, aggravate the condition, or even lead to more serious consequences.
It is recommended that patients go to the hospital and have traction and other standardized treatments with the help of a doctor.
