The disclosure is related to a system and method for operating a traction device to detect blood flow patterns in a subject for managing neuropathy related conditions through intraneural facilitation (INF). According to an embodiment, the INF system and method rely on the traction device for positioning the subject in one or more positions, and a processing device for processing intervening signals obtained by a probe positioned on the subject. The signals received from the probe may be used to determine a two dimensional (2D) plane blood flow pattern. Detected changes in the measured blood flow may be used to determine if further traction device positions are required to ensure that the intervening signals demonstrate normal blood flow patterns with improvements to the neuropathy condition. The 2D flow pattern may calculate at least one of Volume Flow (VF) and Pulsatility Index (PI) for each set of signals received.
