問題が有った。Conventionally, in the treatment of tibial bone injuries or deformation of intertibial cartilage, etc., the neck is pulled with a constant tension for the purpose of correcting the neck. A neck traction device is used, which is held by a hanging holding device, and the holding device is pulled upward to apply the patient's weight to the neck and pull the area under constant tension. Although it has the characteristic of being able to obtain an appropriate neck traction force by adjusting the pulling force of the device, since the device is large and stationary, the patient must go to a hospital etc. where the device is installed for a certain period of time. This poses problems such as having to be restrained in the position of the device, which is very cumbersome and reduces the time available for daily use.
