"I personally have a herniated
disc. I took Celebrex for a long time to reduce the pain. Medication is
just not a long term solution. I bought a inversion table. I use
it three or four times a week around 3 to 5 minutes each time. (I
usually do about 60 degrees inversion. Full 90 degrees vertical
inversion is not really necessary. This machine will do full vertical
inversion.) Slowly I started to feel better without the
medication. Currently, I am using this model machine to do the
inversion. I found no difference between this and The Teeter
Hang-ups. The ease of use and inversion movements are the same. The soft
discs between the vertebrae get very little or no blood flow. The soft
discs act like a sponge. When they are expanded or relaxed, they absorb
nutrients and doing the maintenance and repair. When they are
compacted or squeezed, the nutrients will flow out of the sponge. During
the day, the gravity has stressed and squeezed on these discs. After a
good night sleep, the discs are relaxed and expanded. The body is
doing the damage repair at night.
I have good success doing the inversion stretch before sleep. I
believe the stretching gives our body a head start. Since the soft
sponge has already been expanded, the body can start doing damage repair
earlier and longer. (Just a side note: I found myself by almost 1/2"
taller immediately after inversion.)
This inversion table will be a big plus to your overall back physical
therapy program. However, you will still need to do the kegel's
exercise to strengthen the back and stomach muscles. "
"Further to my previous e-mail and subsequent telephone conversations, I should like to thank you for your prompt and efficient service in supplying the inversion table. This arrived safely two days ago. My husband is now happy he is able to use the table. Many thanks" Edna Bull Jhb

"I recently purchased an inversion table from you and I am writing this
letter to express my complete satisfaction with the product and
gratitude to you for providing an instrument that has changed my life. I
have accepted inversion therapy as a part of my daily physical routine
and feel that continued use of this product can return me to a regular
way of life. In fact, it already has. I am sure that I am one of many
back pain suffers that benefit from inversion therapy, but I am also
sure that there are many back pain suffers who are not aware of the
relief they can receive from inversion therapy. Thank you so much for
providing a product that has allowed me live a full and active life."

"I am a 43 year old female who has been stricken with osteoarthritis.
People look at me and see a vibrant, healthy looking person, but they
have no idea what's happening on the inside of my body. I have suffered
with lower back and neck pain for three year's now. For the past three
month's I have been inverting, and cannot begin to describe the relief I
have experienced. I would like to encourage anyone sitting on the fence
about inversion, to jump off and try it. You have nothing to lose but
sleepless nights and long hours of discomfort."

"We wanted to email and let you know that we are enjoying our Inversion
Table. We purchased it with the idea that it would help relieve my
husband's back pain. We're glad that it has helped in that regard. I
started using it because it was there! Now, I find it very relaxing to
tip upside down. Since many back and neck problems are a result of
stress, we think we're warding off future pain! A good investment."

“I feel absolutely safe on the machine and
I trust my life to it”

"Personally, I like the idea of inversion. This is quiet different from
doing a yoga headstand which still causes compression of the spine. A
whole new perspective is gained from this practice. One begins to have
new understanding of gravity. In the past, I have gone to a chiropractor
to correct misalignment in the hips, spine and neck. Now, I notice some
of these problems are alleviated from the inversion gym. I use the
inversion table about 15 minutes a day in 3 five minute sessions. I feel
absolutely safe on the machine and I trust my life to it when I am on
it. This machine simply adds to the quality of my life."

“... my hair is growing like wild fire
since inverting”

"I have been using my new Hang Ups now for about 3 months and I see a
remarkable improvement already. I use it a lot just for relaxation, but
the improvement I notice is that the numbness I was experiencing in my
left leg has improved dramatically. I would recommend Hang Ups to anyone
- young or old - big or small. The other thing I noticed is that my hair
is growing like wild fire since inverting. I have to go for a haircut
more often!! I love my Hang Ups."
