Innova Inversion Desk with Adjustable Headrest, Reversible Ankle Holders, and 300 lb Weight Capability

Best present I ever bought!
Short Version: Christmas gift, back and knee problems, high blood pressure, easy assembly, works wonders.Long Version:I bought this for my husband as a late Christmas present. He has struggled with back problems for years. I got tired of hearing his daily complaints, and when it started affecting his job and pain was running down his legs, I bribed him with some adult favors (T.M.I?) to finally go and get an MRI. I had a better chance of winning the billion dollar lottery than getting him to go to the doctor, so hey, sometimes you gotta hit below the belt 😉 He was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease and acute arthritis in his shoulders and hips. He’s 45 and I’m 36.But enough about us, let’s get to the table.PackagingThe packaging was great and the pieces were secure. No damage or problems whatsoever.AssemblyThe instructions weren’t great, but my husband is a carpenter and mechanically inclined and he was able to assemble it quite easily. If it would have just been me, I might have had some issues, but together we had it down. It comes with some wrenches, but if you have your own, it’s best to use them. The ones that come with it aren’t the greatest and bend easily. We put it together in about 30 mins, could have been a little faster but the kids just had to ‘help’. I’m pretty sure it folds up, but I haven’t used that feature yet . We use it every day, sometimes twice a day, so we haven’t need to fold it up.The Inversion TableFirst impressions of the table are wonderful. The table was sturdy and I didn’t feel any discomfort or safety issues using it. My husband LOVES it. He said it’s done wonders for his back and I can tell. Before I purchased it, he could barely move at times. His legs would give out randomly and sometimes he’d wince and just sit on the ground in pain. (He was a little more dramatic than that but he may read this.) I was hesitant to get the table at first because he has high blood pressure and I’ve heard that you shouldn’t use these if you have high blood pressure. And his BP is crazy high, many times both numbers are 3 digits. He always blamed his high blood pressure on his high pain level. So, we’ve been using it together and we’ve been going slow. (Please take it slow if you have high blood pressure. It still works.) The available inversion increments are 20, 40, 60, and 80. We haven’t gone past 20 yet. Even at the lowest level he’s seen amazing results. We started using it 2 minutes at a time for a couple of weeks and even though I don’t have back problems (knock on wood), I feel great after a couple of minutes on it too. It’s so relaxing. He’s 6 ft tall and I’m 5’8 and I usually don’t adjust it from his level and it feels fine for me. I’ve read a lot of complaints about the feet and ankle holds on inversion tables, but since we haven’t gone past 20, we haven’t had any problems, but if we ever make it to 80 I’ll update. We are now using it at 4 minutes each still at the lowest increment and we are both loving the results. We’ll move up to 40 soon for 2 minutes and continue to slowly increase our incline. Between using this table and a Turmeric supplement, my husband is 90% pain free and his BP is finally normal.Bottom line:Great price, great results, fast shipping, love love love it. To quote my husband, “I wish I would have got this 20 years ago.”

Great for back pain but takes a lot of space
Fantastic piece of equipment for anyone dealing with back pain or looking to enhance their core workouts. It has been a game-changer for my back pain. By gently stretching the spine, it helps relieve tension and improve posture, which has really eased the discomfort in my lower back. The adjustable headrest adds extra comfort, ensuring you can customize it to your body for a better experience.Beyond back relief, this table is excellent for ab workouts. The inversion angle can be adjusted, allowing you to target your core muscles more effectively than with traditional exercises. I found that inverted sit-ups or crunches offer an added level of intensity, giving a deeper burn to the abs without putting too much strain on the back.The table is sturdy, easy to adjust, and feels safe during use. It’s also relatively easy to assemble. However, its only downside is that it takes up quite a lot of space when unfolded. If you have limited space, this could be a bit of a challenge, but if you can find a permanent spot for it, it’s well worth the investment. Overall, whether you’re looking for back pain relief or a challenging ab workout, the Innova Inversion Table delivers on both fronts

I practised yoga since 1969, but had to stop head/shoulder stands after fracturing vertebrae multiple times starting in the late ‘80s. By 1998, my back pain was chronic so I bought my first inversion table (the expensive competitor). I loved it, my pain disappeared completely w/i a couple of mos., and I continued to invert just for my general health.In fact, so impressed was I that for years I sold these tables through the wellness centre I owned and received a constant stream of positive feedback re. customers’ back pain. Then in 2014, I was diagnosed with late-stage glaucoma, rapidly losing my vision. I had to stop inverting immediately and reluctantly sold my table. My weak vertebrae continued to fracture and back pain became a constant companion again, so severe I could stand up for only a few minutes after 2 fractures in Oct. ‘18. (I don’t use pain medications due to multiple/unpredictable reactions.)After numerous eye surgeries, to my delight my surgeon deemed it safe for me to invert again. I found that the expensive model I’d owned before had replaced its mesh backing with a very hard surface I found far too painful.So I took a chance and ordered the much cheaper Innova.At first, there was a lot of gentle crunching and cracking with the gentle, natural traction as my spine readjusted and decompressed. I like the padded back and the added feature that allows one to choose the max. angle desired and work up to complete inversion. I have been inverting daily now for only 2 weeks (2x/day, the 2nd usually right before bed) and already the pain is diminishing dramatically, my posture is vastly improved, and I optimistically expect to experience freedom from pain again, as in the past.I am thrilled with and grateful for the Innova inversion table. No fancy “new & improved” bells and whistles – just a simple, solid, very effective and affordable piece of health equipment
