Summary

Cervical radiculopathy is a common and disabling condition involving local pain in the neck region and pain that radiates into the upper limb. Recent data suggest that cervical traction may effectively reduce disability and pain, with a dose-response relationship. The main aim of this study was therefore to evaluate the effect of an intensive cervical traction protocol for patients with cervical radiculopathy on depression, insomnia, and quality of life (1).
