ProtecSpine

What ProtecSpine does

ProtecSpine (operating as ProtecSpine North America) is a privately held U.S. medical-equipment company headquartered in Roselle that distributes the ProtecSpine spinal decompression system to chiropractic, rehabilitation, and sports-medicine practices. The company is small (1-10 employees) and operates as a single-product, sales-led business targeting individual clinic purchases across North America.

The core product is a seated spinal decompression machine built around proprietary Floating Manipulative Therapy (FMT), which combines manual therapy with gravity-based machine stretching. According to the company, it is the only seated decompression unit on the market and is positioned as a compact, non-invasive alternative to traditional traction tables and inversion devices. Listed indications include back, neck and leg pain, shoulder conditions, sports injuries, herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, spinal stenosis, osteoarthritis, and discogenic pain. No patents, trademarks, FDA clearances, or third-party clinical validations are disclosed in the available data.

ProtecSpine generates revenue through direct hardware sales of capital equipment to clinics, with pricing not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is digital-first via a dedicated website (protecspine.io) that includes an applications page, comparison content against traditional decompression systems, patient testimonials, and an interactive ROI calculator paired with a waitlist signup. The waitlist mechanism, combined with no disclosed funding, customers, or revenue figures, indicates the company is at an early commercial stage with constrained supply or capacity-limited fulfillment rather than broad market penetration.
