Turn Your Back Pain on Its Head
Incredibly effective and scientifically proven, inversion therapy helps to reduce back & neck pain, relieve stress, reduce sciatic discomfort, stretch and relax your entire body by simply inverting your body upside-down! The key is that inversion therapy relieves pressure from and stretches your vertebrae, allowing the numerous benefits to occur uninterrupted by stress and pain. The Healthy Back Inversion Table offers all the benefits of easy-to-use inversion therapy at a great value that will help you turn your back pain on its head.

Physical Benefits:
Almost all of the causes of back pain - including poor posture, spine misalignment and weak back muscles - can be attributed to the natural force that gravity puts on your body. Inversion therapy will reverse gravity's effects to work for you by allowing you to hang upside down. Instead of crunching your spine, inversion allows your body to work with the downward force of gravity, which will increase the space between your vertebrae and relieve pressure on the areas in your back that are in pain, such as the discs, ligaments and nerve roots.
Your spine is vital to your health as all communication between your brain and your body occur through nerve endings that pass through its vertebrae. Insufficient distance between these vertebrae can cause pressure on these nerve endings which causes back pain. Inversion therapy has been proven to lengthen the space between these vertebrae each session to eliminate the pain that this pressure may cause.
Sitting for a prolonged period of time and slouching while seated takes the spine out of its natural alignment and causes discomfort and pain in all areas of the back. During inversion therapy, the downwards gravitational force allows your body to comfortably reconfigure into its natural s-curve shape. This realignment also reduces the pain that comes from siting in an office chair all day.
Visual Benefits:
Inversion therapy has been shown to improve circulation throughout the body. The human heart generally has to work against the forces of gravity to retrieve blood from the legs and lower torso. The inversion process eases the stress on your heart during this process, leading to many long term aesthetic benefits such as healthier looking features.
The average human body shrinks as it reaches an advanced age due to shrinking discs within the body. This shrinking can range from marginal shortening to a couple of inches. Fortunately, inversion therapy helps maintain the health of these discs which allows individuals to maintain more of their original height.
The ease of circulation during inversion therapy also helps rid the body of varicose veins. These veins can cause pain and look unattractive due to the pressure of pooling blood on the veins. Hanging upside down on an inversion table gives the heart gravity's assistance to pull the pooling blood out of the veins and circulate in throughout the body. The elimination of this pooling blood will help ease the pain and get rid of these unsightly veins.
Mental Benefits:
Inversion therapy is not a high stress exercise, however it is known to have similar and even greater mental benefits then exercises such as weight lifting and running. Just as with those other exercises, endorphins that help reduce pain and cause a feeling of elation are released during inversion therapy. The release of these endorphins, along with the relaxing feeling of inversion therapy combine to help you feel happier and relieve stress.
The relaxation and recharging benefits from using an inversion table can help nullify the feelings of depression as well. In March of 2007, Rosie O'Donnell helped familiarize many people with this means of dealing with depression as she said helped get over her depression by using inversion therapy along with antidepressants.
The Healthy Back Inversion Table comes with a 5-year limited warranty.

I am a Disabled Veteran who has lived for 14 years with debillitating back pain. I was hurt in the Army, and also while in the Army was hit by an 18 wheeler and thrown 60 feet outside of a vehicle. I spent years in physical therapy, weekly chiropractor visits and numerous shots of cortisone. A gentleman from my church suggested an inversion table. The one he let me borrow was made by another company. I went to the Healthy Back Store in Raleigh, NC and Mr. Don helped me with the purchase of a Healthy Back Inversion Table. It has absolutely changed my life. I went from a 7-9 back pain on a pain scale of 1-10 for the past 14 years, to a 2-3 on a 1-10 pain scale. In only 3 months. The Healthy Back Inversion table has a longer arm so I do not have to bend down as far to hook your feet in. It is more comfortable on the legs and feet and it also has bars on the side that allow you to get a deeper stretch. If my back feels like it is "going out" then 3-5 minutes on this table will adjust it back into place, stretch the muscles and get much needed blood flow back into the pinched area of the back. I have not had to go to the Chiropractor in 3 months, because the adjustment he did with force, I can do in my own home, slowly and naturally as a maintenance program in my back rehabilitation stages. Almost everyone (get medical advice first) can benefit from lying on this table for 3-5 minutes a day at the 20-30degree range. No steeper angle is needed to get all of the benefits you will need dailty. I love my Healthy Back Inversion Table and I thank God for my friend recommending me this and I thank Mr. Don in Raleigh, NC Healthy Back store with all of his help when my wife and I visited with questions.
