The Leander technique, also known as Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) Assisted Adjusting, uses table motion to relieve muscle spasm and low back pain. It utilizes mechanical advantages of patient positioning and specific doctor contact points to reduce bulging disks, decompress the spine, and stretch back muscles.
It is a gentle, safe, controlled form of traction specifically designed for spinal pain relief. The table looks similar to a standard chiropractic table, but it can flex and side-flex, allowing patients to receive traction relief in a non-weight bearing fashion.
