Avoid Back Surgery With Inversion

Tune in this weekend to the popular, nationally-syndicated Oldies radio show Shake, Rattle, Showtime with Jim Parsons to hear Jim and Roger Teeter discuss inversion.  Roger tells about the astounding results of a preliminary study done in the UK  at Newcastle University with the Teeter Hang Ups inversion table. The doctor who performed the study was so impressed by the results that he now regularly prescribes the use of a Teeter to help his patients rid themselves of back pain and avoid back surgery.

My daily inversion routine uses both the inversion table and the DEX.

I invert first on the table, usually going immediately to full inversion for 2 to 3 minutes.  I also use the traction handles to add to the traction.  Once I feel fully decompressed (which takes no more than a minute), I do a set of inverted squats to get some extra fluid into my knee joints to help them recover from running or water skiing –  whatever the day’s activities have been.
