I have been using the Pettibon traction units for some time, but have had the patient's facing the wall. Now realizing that I am actually making the FHP worse I want to turn the patient's back to the wall, but am trying to figure out how high I should place the header board, and how far out from the wall it should reach to attach the i bolts to to attach the lenght of chain. Any help would be greatly appreciated, we are very excited to apply all that we have learned with Clear Institute.. Dr B

Hi Dr. Bodine,
So happy that you are excited. Glad to hear you are on board! With the traction units, try using a large eye bolt extended 3 inches or less from the wall. We have them up about 7 feet as to accomodate any tall patients.
Hope that helps.
