Inversion table therapy is a reliable and often recommended treatment for persistent back pain. It works by elongating the vertebrae and increasing the gap between them. The technique is known as decompression. The theory is very simple: suspend the body from a support and gravity will pull the compressed vertebrates to its normal length. Once the vertebrates get elongated, the space created between them will free the cramped discs and nerve endings and give you freedom from pain. It is very simple, and it works.

Inversion Therapy takes time getting used to. If you are a first timer, you should be careful because you may overdo it and fall ill. Full inversion is not recommended if you are using an inversion table for the first time. You should also be very careful with the time you stay inverted. Start with a 20 degree inversion for one or two minutes. Increase the angle of inversion gradually. If you are not comfortable, come up very slowly. It is not advisable to use inversion table on a full stomach as it may cause acid reflux, which can be very painful and discomforting.
