Stable injuries of the cervical spine can be treated with a cervical collar. Unstable injuries that do not require repositioning can be immobilized with a Minerva plaster cast. Crutchfield's extension is used for extension of short duration during repositioning before setting a cast or performing surgery and for long-term extension in cases of transverse lesions of the spinal cord. The Halo apparatus is especially suitable for treatment requiring extension of long duration when there are no symptoms of transverse lesions of the spinal cord.
颈椎稳定型损伤可用颈托治疗。无需复位的不稳定型损伤可用密涅瓦石膏背心固定。在打石膏或进行手术前复位时，Crutchfield牵引用于短期牵引，在脊髓横断损伤时用于长期牵引。当没有脊髓横断损伤症状时，头环装置特别适合需要长期牵引的治疗。
