Inversion therapy is not new. Yoga masters and practitioners have preached the benefits of inverted poses for thousands of years. However, not all of us can commit to mastering the skills involved in achieving inverted yoga positions.
In the 1960s, a California chiropractor named Dr. Robert Martin addressed the effects of gravity on the human body, including the benefits of inversion therapy. Inversion therapy caught on in the 1970s and turned into a full-blown craze in the 1980s after Richard Gere popularized gravity boots in the hit film, "American Gigolo". Controversies subsequently abounded due to poorly constructed equipment by some manufacturers who jumped on the bandwagon. From the 1980s to the present, one brand stood out in the commitment to rebuild the reputation of inversion tables for safety and quality. Teeter Hang Ups. The brand name has become synonymous with "inversion". In 2008, The Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table received the highest rating of all the fitness equipment featured on Good Morning America.
After several years of evaluation, the US Army Physical Fitness School has decided to incorporate inversion into its world-wide physical training doctrine. What better endorsement can a fitness program get?
Teeter's medical-grade standard inversion therapy tables include the Teeter Hang Ups EP 550, which gives you great value for you money, and the top-of-the-line Teeter Hang Ups EP 950.
