Gravity Inversion Table

This website looks at the reasons for inversion tables and some of the "best buys" to be found.


I guess the term gravity inversion table gives the story on this. Gravity inversion tables help relieve the aches, pains and chronic stress which often come about as a result of your simply sitting or standing, putting weight on your feet, legs and skeletal system, sports or back strains and sprains.

Lower back pain is also known as lumbago and can affects seven out of 10 people at some time in their lives. Lower back pain is a pain or ache on your back which can be somewhere level between the bottom of your ribs and the top of your legs. This back pain can come on suddenly or gradually, and can sometimes be the direct result of a fall or injury. The complex structure of your lower back means that even small amounts of damage to any part of the lumbar region can cause a lot of pain and discomfort.

Pain in your lower back can also be a symptom of stress or damage to your ligaments, muscles, tendons or discs. In some cases, if a nerve in your back is pinched or irritated, the pain can spread to your buttocks and thighs (known as sciatica).

By elongating your spine and reducing pressure on spinal discs, ligaments and nerve roots, using an gravity inversion table can help increase blood circulation and strengthen your back as well as offer pain relief.

People have found it to be very good for relieving back pain and it doesn’t mean having to spend a lot of time on the machine. About 3 or 4 minutes a couple of times a day is all it takes to relieve lower back spasms and stretch out the spine.

Many of the gravity inversion tables are light weight and will easily fold to hide away in a closet or behind a wall unit. Most are pleasantly surprised that there is no need to spend a lot of money in order to experience the benefits of inversion therapy.

“Did you know that most low back pain is due to the Iliopsoas muscle that is deep in our pelvis?! IT is our hip flexor and almost everyone gets a contracture (severe shortening) in it from sitting so much. It compresses our spine and hip joints and causes degeneration to those areas as well as other joints in the body.”

Safety Information
As with any exercise program, consult a physician before you begin using a gravity inversion table.
