Anyone familiar with how good or bad these are ?

I have two friends who sure need something like this.

Thanks

I don't know about that particular device, but I looked into them a couple of years ago. I have pretty serious degenerative lumbar disk disease. Torn meniscus, arthritis, compressed nerves, the works. Schlepping too many tons of hay and sitting too many horses too many years. I'm not a candidate for surgery. I settled on an inversion table. I bought the Teeter Hangups you see advertised all the time on TV. The Teeter is made far better than any other I've ever found. Results are instant. Your back unzips as soon as you flip over. 3 or 4 minutes is all it takes. I use it every day and have had great results. Look, the point is to stretch the back, muscles as well as joints and reverse the effects of gravity. You can partially do that lying down, but you get the full effect hanging upside down. It's easy to learn to do. Highly recommended. My neurologist suggested it. Forced traction hurts, when you let your own body weight do it, it's a lot more pleasant.

i'll agree on the traction sucks part.

I hadnt looked at that one. Sure didnt come up searching for lumbar help.

Damn, I can see I have been in the wrong business. Did a more complete search for 'inversion tables' and there is a whole world of them out there. Pricing seems to range very widely too. ~$100 to ~$500+

I bought the entry level Teeter Hangup at 299 with free shipping from AMZN. It's built like a tank and very stable. Couldn't be happier with it and can't imagine needing any other bells and whistles.
