If you get a chance, you should try one to see if it will help you. Good luck and keep trying different things to see what works best for you!

I had similar problems years ago and finally along with the physical therapy got the home traction unit which I started out hating. Then I looked forward to it. It became this process: uncomfortable (oh, why do I have to do this?); to not so bad; to oooh! this is comfortable. I would actually doze! That was more than 30 years ago. Don't try to force what is uncomfortable. Hopefully, you will improve. I know it is frustrating.
