Spinal traction therapy?

i have 2 herniated discs with tear in my lumbar discs L3&4 & L5&S1. with a buldging disc between L4&L5. the insurance company wants me to undergo spinal traction therapy, but i had heard in 2000-2001 that the AMA had come out against it... can anyone help me find out where i can obtain the article/ ive been to the AMA website, and got nowhere fast.

ive been trough spinal traction once b4 and ended up in more pain than what i started with...

Answers:
Here are a few articles about spinal traction, from what I know there are some risks with it like with any treatment, but from what I've seen it typically helps most patients, but there are always those few patients that it doesn't help.
