Stamina Inversion Table: User Manual & Back Pain Relief Guide

There are several causes of back pain but often these causes can be attributed to one common factor: gravity. The Stamina inversion table can help relieve back pain due to gravity, compression and everyday activities. Doctors, physical therapists and sports trainers recommend an inversion table as an effective therapy to naturally correct and align the spine, joints and internal organs.

Instructions

Using the Inversion Table

• 1

  Lie back fully on the table with your arms at your side or resting on your thighs. Raise your arms slowly upward to rotate the table backward. Raise your arms until they are over your head. The inversion table will now be fully inverted.

• 2

  Slowly rock the inversion table back and forth by moving your arms up and down. This rocking motion, often used in hospitals, will gently compress and decompress your spine. Move your arms back to your side to return to the upright position.

• 3

  Use the inversion table for five to 10 minutes, twice a day.

Operating Suggestions

• 4

  Slowly lean back at only 15 to 20 degrees at the beginning. Stay inverted for two to three minutes. Slowly return to the upright position.

• 5

  Make changes gradually. Increase the inversion angle and time of use over several weeks. Add exercise to the inversion table only after you are completely used to being inverted.

• 6

  Monitor your body. If you are dizzy, it means you came upright too fast. Do not use the inversion table immediately after eating. Immediately discontinue use If you feel nauseous or feel any pain.

• 7

  Keep the inversion table moving slowly. Movement promotes blood flow, lymph and spinal fluid circulation and helps align the organs and bones. Never exercise strenuously while inverted.

• 8

  Use the inversion table regularly. Two or three times a day at the same time each day is recommended.

Inversion Exercises

• 9

  Add exercise to your daily routine when you are comfortable being fully inverted for five to 10 minutes. Always lock the immersion table before beginning exercises.

• 10

  Start with general stretches. Extend arms over your head for a full body stretch. Arch your back gently to stretch the back. Arch your body to one side and hold for a side stretch. Repeat on the other side.

• 11

  Contract stomach muscles while bringing your chest to your knees to do an inverted sit-up. Hold, return to starting position and repeat.
