I've been using an inversion table for about 6 months now and it helps my back and I wouldn't be without it. However, I would advise that you consult your doctor first before trying one as everyone's situation is different.

It can be quite confusing for a newcomer trying to find an inversion table suitable for their needs as there are many makes and models around with various features. I ended up getting a Teeter Hang Ups EP-560 inversion table as I think Teeter are one of the oldest and best companies in that field.

Hope that helps.
