Inversion Machine Instructions

Inversion machines use the power of rotating your body on a plane to promote overall better health. The use of an inversion machine has been shown to improve circulation, improve posture, reduce stress and reduce back pain. It is suggested that you use the machine for approximately five minutes twice a day in the morning and afternoon. Set up your machine properly and balance your table before each use to ensure safety.

Instructions

Initial Setup

• 1

  Assemble your inversion machine by following the instructions provided with it exactly.

• 2

  Adjust the foot support arm on the machine to your height in inches. Do this prior to every single use.

• 3

  Ensure that the safety strap is secured to both the frame and table.

• 4

  Adjust the safety tether strap for your angle of incline. It is suggested that beginners start at 25 degrees.

• 5

  Tilt your table to check the maximum angle of incline. You may have to adjust the tether strap to allow for the full range of motion.

Balancing the Table

• 6

  Lock your feet into place using the heel holder.

• 7

  Lie back onto the table with your arms at your sides.

• 8

  Move your hands so that they are crossing over your chest. At this point, the table will start to level.

• 9

  Notice the location of your head. It should be above your feet. If it is lower than your feet, you will need to adjust your height to a higher setting.

• 10

  Repeat these steps until your head is just slightly above your foot in the parallel, or level, position.

Using the Inversion Table

• 11

  Lock your feet into place using the heel holder.

• 12

  Lie back onto the table with your arms at your side.

• 13

  Slowly raise your arms. You will feel the table start to rotate backward. When your arms are completely raised, you will be in the farthest position back.

• 14

  Lower your arms. You will start to move back to the original position. You should return to the position when your arms are by your side again.

• 15

  Use the machine for around five minutes twice a day.
