and how does a inversion table work?
What Makes a Good Inversion Table If someone
prone to back pain uses inversion therapy on a
regular basis, they can live virtually pain free
for decades without having to undergo
surgery! There is an excellent February 2003 to
September 2006 clinical research study conducted
at Newcastle University in England that supports
this point. In this study, twenty-two patients
suffering from sciatic nerve pain due to a disc
protrusion were studied. In all cases, their
physician had recommended back surgery but they
were all hoping to avoid it by undergoing
physical therapy.

• Inversion
• therapy involves being upside down or at an
  inverted angle while hanging by the legs,
  ankles, or feet with the intention of
  therapeutic benefits.
• The process of doing so is called inversion. It
  is a form of spinal decompression and is a form
  of
• These patients were split into two groups, one
  receiving physical therapy alone, and the other
  receiving both physical therapy and inversion
  therapy on an inversion table.
• The results of the Newcastle University showed an
  overwhelming advantage for the group that did
  the inversion therapy. Here is a summary of those
  results
• 78 percent of those patients who received
  physical therapy only still had to have back
  surgery.
• On the other hand, only 23 percent of those
  patients who did the inversion therapy still had
  to
• have back surgery. This means that inversion
  therapy saved 77 percent of that group from
  having to undergo painful, and all too often
  ineffective, back surgery!

For years, it was believed that a surgical
operation was the only way to treat chronic back
pain or herniated disc rupture. Though it does
relieve the excruciating pain that accompanies a
vertebrae problem, its majorly a farce. While
the pain might be diminished by a large extent
providing you with a much-needed relief, the
recovery time is frustratingly long, and in most
cases, the pain finds its way back. These
equipment are a technological marvel of this
age. A simple, yet highly effective tool to
combat chronic back pain and other vertebrae
illnesses, the everyday engineering behind this
product takes home-made therapy to great
lengths. The market is flooded with hundreds of
designs and brands every year. You might think
that there are hardly any ways that these gear
can largely differ from any other brands. Youre
probably right. But also, wrong. It is true that
designs of these various products might seem a
lot similar but as they say, the devil lies in
the details, and you get what you pay for. The
equipment provides a range of ergonomic
functionalities that almost all sub-standard ones
miss out on.

• To extract optimum functionality, the table must
  be able to invert to varying angles and that too,
  easily.
• Machines which provide the ability to shift
  angular constraints while still resting on the
  machine in its standard position are all the
  rage in todays market.
• Safety-
• This form of physiotherapy demands the body to be
  inverted to varying angles for maximum back
  flexibility. In such a case, it is highly
  necessary for the machine to be built of high
  strength material to be able to sustain your
  weight when youre inverting anywhere from 180º
  to 270º.
• Since the upper body will be free to flex and
