Cervical traction is effective for nerve root compression. The seated position, over-the-door, apparatus with the water bag is more effecting than just using the weight of your head, however.
I have a C5-6 fusion and prosthetic discs above and below, installed after I went all numb and tingly from the neck down one night.
