My recent purchase of a Teeter Hangup Inversion Table was a great experience. Service of ordering and shipping from Amazon was outstanding. The table has been instramental in relieving pain caused by a pinched sciatic nerve. Thank you for this opportunityto share.

I've used my Teeter 5000 inversion table for over 3 yrs, nearly every morning (I can't convince my other half to strap in on the luggage rack for trips out of town...). I don't do the full inversion, just 50-60 degrees. Gentle torso twisting and rocking motions with head to left and then to right after 5 minutes or so "inverted". This definitely helps keep my back and shoulders gently stretched along with my floor crunches and a loosening routine in a 90 degree exercise pool several mornings a week as well as taking Mag citrate complex caps daily . After 2 herniated discs, 1 epidural injection and untold grief with lumbar muscle spasms, I don't think there are any better conservative approaches without adding the cost of massage therapy. This table is really pretty solid once you are on it. It can be folded but we leave it intact on the upstairs landing. I did have a minor part issue when I first received it but that was quickly fixed by the manufacturer. Price is right on Amazon with free shipping. Local back stores often carry this and other brands if you prefer to try them out (in some cases). I would definitely purchase another Teeter F5000 should this one wear out or become damaged (with bugs or highway debris if my other half is convinced that it could be strapped on the luggage rack for vacation travel!)
back pain... September 24, 2008

My pain in my back in a long history.
I was in a car accident about 2 yrs ago. Ever since I have been on the rack I like to call it (Spinal Decompression), Physical theropy, medicines, chiropractors, etc... I had pretty much give up. I have my back days and good days, even as much as good months and bad months. Thing is when you feel good you try to be careful not to hurt yourself again, which is hard since the pain is gone you dont know where its going to strike again. I actually have 2 herniated dics and osteoarthritis at the age of 32. I played lots of sport, I still weight lift often, but I cant stay in the gym long enough to loose the weight I gained after my accident. Seems like when I start loosing the pain comes back 10 fold. I just cant take it. It was also really bothering me when people said your back is messed up because im overweight, well numb nuts ever thought I might be over weight because my back is messed up???? DUH! I was in great shape before my accident, it sucks when old friends see me I have to explain what happened.
Ok on to teeter, I will write another review if anything changes. I just put it together before work, pretty easy, and jumped right on, its quite nice and comfortable. I went 90 right away, I am physically fit and can take it no problem. It was a nice stretch. I dont know about the whole sit-ups thing though haha but after getting off I felt like a new man. I was actually in some decent pain today. What is nice is alot of time I left the chiropractor in more pain then I went in. Off the teeter I felt great, felt light, felt like I could do anything. Here I am at work 2 hrs later and still feel good. If I can do it before work and after work, man o man will that be nice... I hope teeter is my savyour.
Great Product September 11, 2008
I use the Teeter Hang Up every day. I was having so much pain from sciatica that I could hardly walk. The Teeter has helped get the pressure off my nerve and I almost feel normal again.

This is a very well made machine. However, it really did nothing for mine or my husband's bad backs. Its uncomfortable to hang totally upside down and we never really got it at a lesser angle to hang comfortably for long enough to be helpful. Also, its hard to hold your feet stiffly for a long time frame.
