Inversion therapy is a form of treatment that involves being inverted or suspended upside down to promote various health benefits. The primary tool used for inversion therapy is an inversion table, which allows a person to lie on their back and gradually tilt the table to an inverted position. Inversion therapy aims to relieve pressure on the spine by creating traction and decompression. This can help alleviate conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and sciatica.
The science behind inversion therapy is simply counteracting the effects of gravity that compress the spine and joints over time. Over time the spine and joints tend to compress due to gravity and years of pressure applied to the body. Inversion therapy works on decompressing the spine and reducing muscle tension which helps lengthen the spine.
| People that experience chronic back pain such as spinal stenosis, disc herniations, spinal degeneration and sciatica. Inversion therapy helps relieve the back from all these pains by simply decompressing the spine, vertebra by vertebra. This allows for the slight pulling apart of the vertebra which is not painful, but actually releases the pressure felt on the spine. |
Just like any medical treatment, you should always consult your doctor in the case of any medical conditions. People with the following conditions should avoid inversion therapy: hypertension, heart problems, osteoporosis, fracture, hernia, retinal detachment, ear problems and pregnant women.
Using an inversion table is the best form of inversion therapy. It is 100% safe and can be used any where at any time. Not to mention its efficiency and easy application. One: the user sets the correct height Two: the user inserts feet into the ankle lock and secures the safety lock Three: the user sets the angle lock Four: the user leans back on the inversion table and uses his/arms to invert Now all the user has to do is relax, and feel gravity work its wonders. Full inversion at a 90% angle for the first time isn’t necessary to experience the benefits of this treatment. Instead opt to gradually invert on a 20 degree angle for 1 to 2 minutes, till you’re comfortable in a more advanced range, then increase the time between 2 to 3 minutes.
