Inversion therapy is used to relieve the attraction caused by the sprain or degeneration of the vertebral disc, as well as any of the spinal tennis and other attraction.
Reversal therapy is used to relieve pain caused by hernia or degeneration of the vertebral discs. As well as the cause of spinal stenosis and other diseases. Usually, the pain is disturbing and appears in the back, buttocks, legs, and feet. The main cause is the compression of the nerve endings by the weight of the body itself. In inversion therapy, the patient is placed upside down, causing an increase in the space between the vertebrae and, consequently, a decrease in the pressure caused by the nerves. Some research has confirmed that the therapy is effective in treating chronic pain, especially if the problem is recent. The treatment does not require the patient to be placed upside down immediately. The angle of the table can be properly.

Steps
Method 1 of 2: Running the return table
Install the inversion table on a flat, sticky floor. To avoid a serious accident, whenever using it, check that the joints, handling, and axes of rotation are properly engaged.
- Before using the first, read the instruction manual carefully. All your body weight is suspended on the table. So it is important to follow all the steps correctly. Get someone to accompany you on your first attempt to use the table.
Wear sports shoes. Never be barefoot, as your feet need extra shoe grip to attach tightly to the support.
Climb the footrests. Stand with your back on the table and place one foot at a time. With your back straight, carefully lower yourself and close the clips.
Lie down. Although each table uses a different system to hold the user’s body. All should have an ankle bar and side straps. Check that the security items are properly installed.
Hold both sides to the handle. Push them to start spinning on the body.
Stay in a horizontal position for two minutes before getting up. This will cause the blood to be evenly distributed throughout the body. So make it easy before you start releasing the clips to stand up.
Method 2 of 2: Starting a Route to Treat Back Pain
Only use an inversion table on the recommendation of your doctor. The rotation technique is rarely used to treat chronic pain and is therefore indicated only in chronic cases. Combined with inversion treatment, anti-inflammatory drugs, physiotherapy, physical training, and epidural injection.
Always make light movements. Otherwise, your problem may get worse.
Take care always. Before doing the rotation, place yourself horizontally for two minutes to adjust the distribution of blood throughout the body.
Move your feet up to a 45 ° angle. Take a deep breath and stay in this position for two minutes.
Raise your arms above your head to help balance your body. This will increase your sense of security at the table
Reduce an angle of 25 ° and stay in position for five minutes or more. Continue training for a week. Try to repeat the process twice a day so that the body gets used to it faster.
Increase the angle from 10 ° to 20 ° per week, until you feel good staying between 60 ° and 90 ° for five minutes
Use an inversion table three or more times a day, whenever you experience severe pain. Because the relief is only temporary, a high frequency of repetitions is required to get the best results.
- Do not push yourself to make a complete rotation (90 °), many patients do not exceed 60 °. There are people who, for the sake of convenience, do not exceed 30 ° and still see results.
Create a diary to record your pain levels. This way, you will know if the treatment works and what part of it can be optimized. For example, find out what is the best angle, the right number of daily repetitions, and the time of day that gives the best results for the disease.
Tips
- There are other forms of relapse therapy; with gravity boots, for example, used in conjunction with a raised bar. On the other hand, yoga rotation can be performed without any equipment, with or without the help of a wall or someone else. These practical techniques should also gradually increase the degree of rotation.
- Check out the exercise lights in the book “Treat Your Spine Yourself”, by Robin McKenzie.
Warnings
- Patients with glaucoma, heart disease, or high blood pressure should not practice inversion therapy. Lowering the level of the head relative to the body causes an increase in blood pressure in the heart, eyes, and head.
- Pregnant women should also not practice inversion.
- People who have recently had a fracture. Have had surgical orthopedic implants, or have osteoporosis should report such problems to their doctor before starting therapy.
