A year ago my husband suddenly came home from work bent over in horrible back pain. Had the symptoms of Sciatica, however the Xrays and MRI showed nothing in the area. He was put onto anti inflammatories and pain killers which he hated. 2 weeks of laying in pain and no answers, His knee started swelling as well. I hauled our inversion table out of the basement and got him onto it, that is the one thing that started getting him upright again and moving. After a few days, he was pain free and it hasn't returned. He stands in one spot in his job,on cement so I believe compression is happening with the discs of his spine. The inversion board is terrific and I highly recommend it for anyone in back pain. Just start out easy and work you way eventually into full inversions.

Oh you are so right I think same problem my 6'4" husband stands on concrete at work and so we got the inversion board to try to resolve the aches. Truly does help and we keep it out so we use it. I was getting aching from working at an ergonomically incorrect desk at a new job and this has reduced trips to the chiropractor. We looked at a variety on line and chose the Max Performance brand. I am still not completely inverted as we have only had it a short time.
