Suspension Therapy FAQ's

What is suspension therapy?
Suspension therapy is a rehabilitation system developed in Norway that focuses on improving neuromuscular (nerve and muscle) function. During treatment, your body is partially supported in slings or bungee-assisted suspension, creating a pain-free environment similar to exercising in water. This reduces joint stress while encouraging muscle coordination and control.

How does suspension therapy work?
The Clifton Physical Therapy team uses the Redcord® Neurac® Method, which involves suspension exercises in lying, sitting, kneeling, or standing positions. This controlled environment helps your body:

  • Identify and retrain weak or imbalanced muscles

  • Activate stabilizing muscles without overloading painful tissues

  • Improve posture, core strength, and balance

  • Reduce muscle spasms and promote relaxation

By requiring multiple muscle groups to stabilize and coordinate, suspension therapy enhances neuromuscular control and accelerates recovery.

What conditions can suspension therapy treat?
Research shows suspension therapy is effective for a wide range of musculoskeletal and post-surgical conditions, including:

  • Lower back pain (herniated discs, spinal stenosis, sciatica/radiculopathy)

  • Neck pain (nerve compression causing arm pain, tingling, or weakness)

  • Knee injuries (ACL sprains, post-surgical recovery, arthritis-related pain)

  • Sports injuries (tendinitis, bursitis, muscle strains)

  • Chronic conditions (arthritis, joint instability, recurring pain)

Because it reduces strain on injured tissues, suspension therapy allows patients to begin safe rehabilitation earlier in their recovery.
