Back Pain Treatment

In case you’ve ever looked at any type of back pain treatment you will notice there’s no shortage of products out there claiming to cure your back pain. Some specialize in lower back pain, some specialize in upper back pain, some claim to do it all. There are many factors to consider when it comes to finding the best back pain treatment for you or your loved one, and you want to be sure to make an informed choice.

Issues Vs. Symptoms

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could just take a pill and magically make the back pain or discomfort go away? Sadly, no such pill exists that addresses the root of the problem – pain relief medications just temporarily mask the pain. The long term effects of taking pain pills can vary, but some may do more harm than good.

Is Surgery The Answer?

Surgeries to remove a slipped disc or spinal fusions are all-too-common solutions to back pain. Patients in the U.S. are actually 40% more likely to get prescribed surgery as a solution for back issues than any other country in the world, yet many experts believe that 90% of back pain can be resolved with less invasive options that let the back heal itself.

Better Back, Better Body… Better Life

Imagine having an in-home back pain treatment product that not only helped reduce your back pain, but also helped to relieve stress, improve circulation, increase oxygen to the brain, increase flexibility, improve joint health, and just made you feel better overall? Used by Hippocrates all the way back in 400 BC, inversion therapy with Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Tables has helped millions of people all over the world to relieve their back pain and improve their quality of life.

Medical Studies

Many medical studies have backed the benefits of inversion therapy, demonstrating important benefits such as:

• Patients who were unable to work due to back pain could return to work after using inversion
• Inversion reduces the need for sciatica back surgery
• Inverted traction is a more effective back pain treatment than mechanical traction machines found in doctor's offices
• Inversion increases spinal length
• Inversion reduces EMG activity (an indicator of muscle pain)
• Inverted traction decompresses the lumbar area
• Rhythmic traction can lower blood pressure
• Inversion reduces disc pressure
  

Using a Teeter inversion table helps relieve back pain in four main ways:

• Rehydrates the discs: when inverted the separation in the vertebrae allow for increased moisture to flow into the discs, resulting in increased nutrient content and increased shock absorption and flexibility.
• Reduce nerve pressure: Increased height of the discs increases the size of the passageway for nerve roots to exit the spinal column. Less nerve pressure or pinched nerves.
• Realign the spine: The traction applied decompresses the spine so misalignments can naturally fall back into place.
• Relax tense muscles: muscles are gently stretched as circulation is increased, which helps to reduce tension.
