Inversion Table Reviews
What to Look for in Inversion Table Reviews
It is a fairly established fact that inversion tables work wonders in curing you of back ache and other stress-related problems. You may have used these machines in gyms before, or may have had one in your house before but for some reason you need a new one. Now your dilemma is how do you go about choosing among the various models that are out there? How do you choose based on the numerous inversion table reviews you come across?
I was in a similar quandary about a year ago, when I had just discovered this elegant and space agey machine that promised to cure me of my decades old back pain whose origins go back to high school. I was visiting a friend of mine at his house, and I came across this weird contraption that looked like what Bruce Wayne used in the 1989 ‘Batman’ film. I asked my friend what the heck it was, and he went on about how he had had back aches for the longest time but discovered the inversion table when surfing on Youtube. I then pointed out how I had had back pains too, and had been to chiropractors, who had provided little to no help.
My friend then asked me, “Wanna try it out?” Of course I said yes. He let me hang on the thing for three minutes, at what I think was a 40 degree angle. Afterwards, I just told him I felt weird in a good way, but was not sure if it had any effect on me. It was as I was going home, getting in my car, that I thought to myself how much easier it felt to breathe all of a sudden, and indeed, my back felt especially light. At home, I began searching inversion tables, in Youtube and fitness sites. My friend’s model was a Teeter, an EP-550 if I recall right. At first I was determined to get a Teeter as well, but upon reading other reviews, I found myself leaning towards a Stamina.
It was initially the price difference that got me to look for other brands and models. But then I saw that the Stamina Gravity inversion table fit my needs, and those of others like me who have never had any real experience with these things. At about half the price of the Teeter EP-550, the Stamina Gravity was simpler, but nonetheless effective. Others seemed to prefer other models like the Teeter, but these seemed to be based on the height limitations of the cheaper models. I myself am only 5’8 so the maximum height of 6’0 for the Stamina Gravity was no problem. I saw that other users had an easy time moving and storing the inversion table, which is a big thing to me, because of the limited space in my home.
A year later, and I use my Stamina Gravity still, about twice a week. My old back problem has long gone to oblivion. The best tip I can give you when you are searching for what model to get and reading through various inversion table reviews, is to ask yourself what your unique needs are, and whether these will sufficiently be met by the product you intend to buy. Once this is solved, then you are set.
