Quantum Inversion Table

1. Improve Spine Health

One of the primary reasons people experience back pain is due to improper spine alignment. Not adhering to a neutral posture consistently throughout the day puts unnecessary stress on the spine when it’s misaligned.

Gentle massage and light manipulation of the spine are techniques that therapists use to help people relieve compression. Inversion therapy is similar to these approaches, as it carefully inverts the body downward, allowing for gentle stretching from gravity’s pull.

2. Avoid the Need for Painkillers

Many people who live with chronic back pain are dependent on prescription painkillers to find relief. Inversion therapy may help people reduce their need for medication by providing a natural pain management solution.

A 2013 study looked at 47 women suffering from chronic low back pain and as a result of an eight-week inversion therapy, they saw significant improvements in their chronic low back pain symptoms.

Additionally, the groups had greater flexibility in their upper bodies and lumbar areas, meaning they had a better ability to bend forward and touch their toes.

3. Prevent the Need for Surgery

Holistic wellness and natural pain management approaches are important for those who are at risk of requiring surgery for their lumbar pain or sciatica. Making lifestyle changes to protect your spine health can help prevent further damage that will eventually require surgical intervention. Inversion therapy could be a good solution for many people who would otherwise need to undergo a surgical procedure.

4. Reduce Stress

Many people who use inversion tables report that it helps them de-stress. Inverted positions—keeping your head below your heart—are known to activate the parasympathetic nervous system. It’s a naturally soothing position that puts the body into a more restful state after experiencing an active sympathetic nervous system.

Taking time to invert yourself may help you regain control over your stress and calm your nerves.

5. Increase Mobility

Many people with back pain avoid physical activity. However, light and consistent physical activity are strongly recommended for back pain. Without it, your back pain will likely worsen, and you’ll experience decreased mobility.
