I am involved in restoring deficits in motor skills. I have
found Inversion Table to be a valuable aid in the rehabilitation
of the condition of muscle and cartilage tissue and in increasing
perfusion to the middle ear, eyes and vestibular system. These
benefits are rapidly reflected in improved performance. |

I suffer from chronic back pain due to developmental factors
exacerbated by injury. Surgery has not cured the problem entirely
and I use regular Inversion Table exercises to good effect
for relief of the curse of chronic back and neck pain.

We have been using the Inversion Table in our clinic for
11 years with excellent results in relieving chronic back
and neck pain. |

After using Inversion Therapy I was amazed in the change
in my flexibility , after only a few weeks of use. My golf
game is much improved due to greater shoulder mobility. I
whole heartedly attest to the benefits of this product. |

Re : Inversion Therapy
Thank you for introducing me to inversion therapy.
I lead a very active life and am no longer a teenager (42
next week). I run marathons, play cricket, league golf, go
boating, skiing, etc. and a lot of other outdoor and adventure
activities. Recently I’ve had to miss out on certain
things and had some slow recovery periods, but I’ve
found that 5 minutes ‘upside down’ every morning
has almost entirely eliminated my ‘bad back days’.
Right now I am sitting without any pain or stiffness, and
will in fact be sailing in a yacht race this evening. The
last time I was invited, I had to cancel, as I had to visit
the chiropractor. In fact I had 15 sessions with him last
year, and only 3 so far this year, which says plenty. I
will gladly recommend it to anyone, not just those with
back problems. I advocate maintenance and prevention, more
than ‘cure’.
I would like to add that my running partner is also my doctor,
and he advised me to buy the ‘Inversion Table’ when
we saw it at the 2 Oceans marathon expo. He was right.

To whom it may concern
I am a golfer who has suffered intermittent back problems
for the past 15 years. I recently purchased an Inversion Table
and despite my initial scepticism I can confidently say that
my life has changed.
Regular use of the table has given me far greater mobility
and elasticity. My golf has improved and the general feeling
of well being is indescribable.
Thank you INVERSION!

Ek het heelwat las gehad van my bene
wat dood geraak het as ek lang skofte aan kanovaart deelgeneem
het. Soms in die nag het my arm an veral een hand ook dood
gevoel. Toe ek van die inversion table gehoor het, ek dit
probeer en na ongeveer vier weke se gebruik aan die tafel
het albei het probleme heeltemaal verdwyn. Ek het twee sessies
per dag die tafel gebruik. Elke sessie het ongeveer ses
minute geduur. Die eerste drie minute hang ek net ontspanne
en still onderste
–bo en die tweede drie minute per sessie doen ek maagoptrek
oefeninge vanaf ‘n loodregte onderste-bo posisie.
Die eerste positiewe gevoel was dat my oggend styfheid
heeltemaal verdwyn het en daarna het die bene en arms se
dooie gevoel ook verdwyn.

Just to say how delighted I was to find
you in Tyger Valley the other day. I know it may sound excessive
but I can only say that after one ten minute session I felt
the benefits for the rest of the day.
Since then I have made sure of daily spells on the table and
am very pleased with the results.

Hi
I purchased my bed about 10 years ago. In my youth I was
a gymnast and the constant jarring from landing compacted
my spine and twisted my hips. I suffered constant pain in
the lumbar region and at times could hardly walk – my
hips were out of alignment and one leg appeared to be longer
than the other. In fact my whole spine was crooked. I also
had a hair-line fracture in my sacro-iliac from a bad fall
about 30 years ago.
I used my bed every day for months – generally twice
a day for about 5 minutes at a time. Whilst I enjoyed immediate
short term relief from the pain, what was more important was
that the constant pain also slowly eased and eventually virtually
disappeared. I cut my visits to the physiotherapist down to
once a month. I have seen the same physio’ for over
20 years now and he has been amazed at how well my body responded
to the inversion bed. My spine is now completely straight
– I have “grown” about 2 inches!
