Traction Therapy!

Does such a think exist? I can not think of anything better right now. How I'd love to lay on a bed and be gently stretched out. If this doesn't exist, I'm trademarking it and going into business. You heard it here first! ;)

Yes, I had it some years ago for a neck/upper spine problem. It was part of the physio treatment and they put a strap under my chin then it went over a pulley with a weight on the end - just for 5 minutes. At the time I didn't think it did much but my muscles really ached the next day - and it did ease the problem.
