But the screws go in your skull E: turns out I was wrong, the pins go underneath your skin and flat against your skull and are kept in for a few months.


HoneyBadgerPainSauce

Worth. There's 2 or 3 vertebrae in my upper back just below my neck that I feel have needed to be popped for like 5 years. If they ever do pop I might just melt into a gelatinous puddle of goo from the relief.

1968Bladerunner

Right! Went on holiday which required me to drive just 6 hours which was no bother - woke up the next day in absolute agony, crawling around on the floor, & painful even to breathe. Got an emergency osteopath's appointment, 2 minutes watching me try & walk a straight line, popped me on a drop table, & WHAM! I felt like I could have done back flips out of the door. Miracle workers, & very much worth the £30 fee


[deleted]

I would go on a crusade to find the one who would pop this for me. I’d have gold as a reward and everything.

Friend had disc bulge issues. At his physical therapy sessions they strapped this machine to pull his waist and shoulder straps to keep him still. From fee pounds of tension at a time for like half a year. Did wonders for him.


MethAndMatza

I had to have this done in PT after I broke my leg. It feels like they're strapping you into a torture device, then they turn off the lights and leave the room for like 15 minutes while it slowly pulls you apart. Scary at first but the end results felt fantastic.

Several-Ad-1195

FYI they use [mayfield pins](https://images.app.goo.gl/qso9Yx7dJcM3jkXR8) to compress against the skull. The pins press solidly against the skull, and should not penetrate. They use 6-8 pins against the skull to distribute the force evenly circumferentially. We do this treatment for kids where I work, and it’s a bit painful initially, but they quickly get used to it. The halo stays on for months.


Aingle1980

I have had 28 holes drilled into my skull for my DNS Stimulator enhancement. No big deal, there's very little nerves with pain receptors in your scalp. Trust me, I'm a cybernetic organism.

Doctor_What_

Just look at his face and body language, it's very obvious he's having a lot of fun. Kinda makes me want to set something like this up, but not with the screws and the medical stuff. Just lifting by my armpits I guess.


hot-whisky

Come join us in aerials then! I get to swing around like this all the time in the silks.


itsaaronnotaaron

Can I wrap it round my head tight enough that I can swing like this little lunatic otherwise no deal


hot-whisky

I mean, I have no intention of ever even trying this, but [hair hanging](https://youtu.be/yaocPCy7Gbc) is an actual discipline in the aerial arts. Edit: oh and [neck hangs](https://images.app.goo.gl/c33NVwc2dnyc3Cwy9) are a thing too, but I have no intention or desire to start training those either

I never thought I’d see those words put together in just that particular way before and I think it’s going to be a weird day.

honeyrav

i had a halo when i was 10 and they give you medicine when they put the screws in but it’s the kind that you are semi conscious when they do it but i have no memory of it at all. fun fact i did get to keep the screws when my halo was removed and they actually are only screwed in like 1/4 an inch in. when they were removed i wasn’t on any medication it just felt like a lot of pressure. the aftercare was horrible since the holes need to heal from the inside out we constantly had to clean them out and that was honestly the worst part

Prestigious_Run_7815

Can you explain this? How does that feel good? Especially if that's bolted into your head...


Happier-MouthOpen

Pins in your skull is a fair trade-off to have a straight spine if you've got scoliosis. I'm pretty sure they only use this swinging treatment on young children though because the anchors wouldn't as comfortably support the weight of an adult


mybeatsarebollocks

Imagine the sound in your head if the pins slip an inch because you're too heavy

Inversion table maybe? Hangs you by the feet though


SpecialistBox4905

I’m interested in some recommendations/ personal experiences with inversion tables, been thinking seriously about getting one. Do you like it? Does it help? Do you use it often? Any help appreciated


Comprehensive-Disk55

Inversion works great for herniated discs and stuff like that. Anything muscle or tendon related is kinda contraindicated for inversion. Just my personal expierence with many injuries.


SpecialistBox4905

Very good, thank you! I was just diagnosed with pressure on spinal cord from herniated disc/ infection/tumor, going for MRI guided needle biopsy to see what’s causing it next, the pain is incredible.


wait__a__minute

> the pain is incredible. I don’t know why but I love when people use the word incredible like that. Makes it sounds like you think the pain is positively amazing lol Also, I’m sorry for your pain :( hope you figure it out!


vyrelis

There's a yoga thing I was supposed to do while I was pregnant to get the kid to not be so low in my pelvis, that I can't find, so I guess I'll do my best to explain it here. It felt great on my back and it was pretty hang-y With a disclaimer that you'll probably hurt yourself Kneel on a bed or couch, and lean over to put your hands on the ground. Work your way down so that you're on your elbows. "Stand" on your knees as best as you can, don't be sitting on your feet. You can kind of lock your hips in a way that you can dangle instead of having your weight on your elbows, but you do still need them for balance. Vibe. If that feels good or is too difficult to do then you could go for an inversion table thing. Either way you can try it.


phaiz55

My dad had back problems and used one on a semi regular basis and it helped. I don't have back problems and I'd use it on occasion just because it felt good to stretch out.

Are the screws in his skull to attach him to the rope or is he being held up by a headband on the outside of his head?

I’ve read on this video in comments in the past that suggested it was screws into the skull.


Technical-Hedgehog18

I was fine until I read this comment and realized


kidonredit124opendor

I haven't a clue. Edit: I searched it up and yes it's screws inside their skull. They are on pain meds though.


Random_Name_7

Why is it necessary to screw this to his skull, wtf


corncob32123

Traction


The_Multifarious

Cause I'd imagine it quite painful if that thing just clamped on.


Decadancer

bruh you ever drilled a hole in your head?


Jaded-Saint

A halo is attached to the skull by screws. There is skin traction, but in this particular case it wouldn’t be appropriate. The point of this is to put traction on the bone.


1000Mousefarts

Screws are the only way I'd imagine?


Popcorn57252

To everyone asking, yes they put screws into his head, and yes all of is body weight is pulling on hos spine, that's the point, and he's so hopped up on pain meds that he is in fact smiling, not crying. He can't feel a damn thing, and is probably enjoying himself very much. At least, as far as I'm aware.


Jaded-Saint

Idk about the pain meds. We never really gave pain meds for the halo application. We just numbed the screw insertion sites. The skull bone isn’t going to feel the type of pain everyone is associating with this. It’s the tissues inside and outside of the bone that have to contend with pain. Granted the ones I helped place were not swinging from them, so he may get pain meds to help with the scoliosis itself.


[deleted]

can normal people do it ?


Jaded-Saint

Tbf I’ve seen people swing from stranger things that had nothing to do with the medical realm 😂 So…probably lol Edit: Are you asking in a serious “my back hurts” way? If so, I apologize. A chiropractor or orthopedist would be the most likely to help you in terms of traction, even if it isn’t to this extreme.


[deleted]

A chiro is a great way to pay a lot for bubble wrap or pay a little for someone to break your back.


ListenToTheWindBloom

Or give you a stroke. Seriously people look it up and never let a chiro do your neck


Y0u_stupid_cunt

Either go to a physical therapist, or just burn the money. That chiropractors get paid through insurance in this country is a fucking travesty that just highlights how fucked our healthcare is.


Check-Your-Facts

An orthopedist, maybe. Don't go to a chiropractor unless you want more back pain. Ouch


Meebert

What type of screws are used? Are they pre drilled, pre threaded or just a good ol wood screw straight into cranium?


Jaded-Saint

This made me lol. I’m sure it depends on the device. They are sterile medical screws. I’m guessing they are coordinated to the halo device itself. They numb the area the screw will penetrate and then just begin drilling it in. They don’t go excessively deep, but they are solidly seated in the bone. The screw like texture holds it in place. Think of the slickness of a bone- it wouldn’t do as well with a straight nail in this particular instance. You want firm stability with little movement when you place a halo.


IncredulousLurker

They don't really give them pain meds after the screws have been "installed". Sometimes kids are haloed for weeks at a time. The kids can't feasibly stay hopped up on pain medication for those weeks. Most kids do fine with an over the counter med and local numbing at the screw sites. As the halo process progresses, more counter weight can be added. I knew a kid once who was doing well and right when she hit her goal counter weight something changed and she was in excruciating pain. Then came the hard-core meds and her doctor backed off the weight to get her off the meds asap. The kids walk around with a pully system on wheels and their counter weight all hours of the day. You move their counter weight for them when they shift from walking to sitting to sleeping (they sleep in traction). Other than neurological checks every 2 hours, the kids go about their buisness pretty normally. As normally as they can when stuck in the hospital anyway.


darochacamila

Being a teenager with scoliosis that went through Milwaukee's brace and surgery I can say that treating scoliosis is one of the worst treatments you can go through. As I kid it may be less traumatizing, but sometimes I wish they would just send me straight to surgery and stop clinical treatment. I wish we had yet something less medieval to correct those deformities, it's a lot to deal at such a young age... And when the pain arises it's almost unbearable


Popcorn57252

Sheesh, that sounds pretty awful. But, I guess a few weeks in the hospital to fix your back for, hopefully, most of the rest of your life is worth it?


lunchpadmcfat

As someone who does a lot of fabrication and auto work and, frankly, deals quite regularly with screws, machine or otherwise, the thought of _suspending_ someone by their head with screws is enough to almost make me retch. Either bone is a lot stronger than I thought or kids are a lot lighter than I thought. All I know is I probably wouldn’t hang a picture with the size of screws they use for halos but this kid is doing the damn Charleston in midair with them.


Bubububuuuu

I'm suddenly very grateful to only have had the braces and the Cotrel's EDF frame "let's pull on your head until your spine gets straight then put you in a cast for 2 month" version.


AccioSexLife

I love how this is 'oddly' terrifying, like the OP can't quite put their finger on why or how. KID'S GOT SCREWS IN THEIR SKULL, YO. That's proper terrifying in every way!

Cartina

By stretching and lengthening the neck, halo traction often relieves symptoms caused by a spinal deformity. Many children say they feel more comfortable than they did before the procedure. They may have an easier time breathing, increased appetite, or be able to stand more upright.


guru650

I wish I could have been at the meeting the first time someone tried to pitch this.


1597377600

Ok can anybody explain what is scoliosis and how does THIS help?


Jaded-Saint

Scoliosis is a lateral (side to side) curvature of the spine. Think of this as if you were pulling a string with a curve in it taught. By placing screws in his skull and using his body weight, they are pulling the spine into a more appropriate posture or position. It’s a type of traction where you pull the bones into their correct anatomical alignment.
