A system and a method for the relief of pain/irritation of the spine or for the prevention of degeneration of the spine. The system is designed to facilitate creep in the human spine in a way that can be self-administered and with which patients will readily comply. The apparatus comprises a base, an inclinable support surface pivotably connected to the base, said support surface capable of supporting the upper body of the person in a prone position, a support member coupled to the base and the support surface, and an actuator coupled to the support member for controlling the angle of inclination of the support surface to promote distraction of the spine. The method comprises positioning a person on the support surface and adjusting the angle of inclination thereof so that the device supports the upper body of the person and gravity causes distraction of the spine.

Le système est conçu pour faciliter l'élasticité de la colonne vertébrale humaine d'une manière qui peut s'auto-administrer et avec laquelle les patients se conformeront rapidement. L'appareil comprend une base, une surface porteuse inclinable reliée pivotante à la base, ladite surface porteuse pouvant soutenir la partie supérieure du patient en position ventrale, un élément porteur couplé à la base et à la surface porteuse, et un actionneur couplé à l'élément porteur destiné à réguler l'angle d'inclinaison de la surface porteuse de façon à favoriser la distraction de la colonne vertébrale. Le procédé consiste à positionner la personne sur la surface porteuse et à régler l'angle d'inclinaison de celle-ci de façon que le dispositif supporte la partie supérieure du corps de cette personne et la gravité entraîne la distraction de la colonne vertébrale.
