In order to carry out and perform inversion therapy, one must purchase and set-up certain pieces of inversion equipment. This type of therapy involves turning your body into an upside-down position with the hopes of gaining some sort of health benefit. Some examples of possible health benefits are: relief from back pain, a repositioning of the spine and hips so that they form an aligned order, improved blood circulation (especially to the brain for mental clarity), stress relief, and as a way to slow down the aging process especially in the area of losing one’s body height as the disks and vertebrae in the back are compressed with aging.
To set-up a home center, you will need an inversion table, and there are several types available for purchase. There are two types of home centers: The first is a curved design, and the other is the non curved model or simply put – a full back model. The first design is sleeker and has a more ergonomic design for his back, whereas the full back design is wider for the body. Its shape is an exact replica of a rectangular shaped board providing complete coverage and support of your head, neck and entire back, including some of the lower torso.
Depending on what the inversion therapy is treating, it may be necessary to purchase additional equipment such as gravity boots. The type of equipment needed greatly depends upon what your specific goals are. If you are want to gain strength and stamina in your back and body, then gravity boots as an addition to your table will be helpful. The addition of gravity boots are for those people who are already quite flexible and have the strength to pull themselves up from an inverted position to an upright position. The purpose of utilizing the table alone, without the gravity boots, is more for pain relief in the back rather than as a strengthening mechanism for the spine. It is also the recommended way for beginners to start out, perhaps with a view to adding the gravity boots to their holistic regiment at a later stage.
The prices for these tables and gravity boots vary across the different brand names and the many suppliers that are distributing them. Some inversion equipment, including the two types of tables can range from as low as $74.99 up to around $399.00. The gravity boots can range from $94.95 to about $159.99. So, as you can see there is a price range to fit a variety of peoples’ budgets.
