returned it. didn't really work out for me September 7, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
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.
Teeter Hang Ups F5000 Inversion Table September 4, 2008 Inversion table is as described. Is easy to set up and use. Well balanced and you feel secure. Padded ankle bar is a plus. It has helped with my lumbar spine.
teeter inversion table review September 2, 2008 Great product. really well made and easy to operate..have used it for about 3 weeks now, and my back feels a whole lot better.. Great not only for the back, but stretching out all the muscles from the ankles on up..
Does wonders for my back September 2, 2008 Got it 1.5 months ago and have loved it. It takes some getting used to, but my lower back feels much better. When I do it routinely, I don't wake up in the morning with back pain! I was a bit nervous about the whole upside-down and am I going to fall and break my neck thing, but I don't have to go to an extreme angle to get a lot of benefit from it.
Even my neck feels a bit better (pinched nerve), though this is not as much much help for that issue as I had hoped.
The trick is making it part of the daily routine. I have it folded up in the bedroom, so it is easy to ignore it until the pain comes back.
Coudn't use it due to WARNINGS about medical conditions September 2, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I've heard such wonderful things about the TEETER hang-up. I have a friend who has this same model and loves it. It helped his back tremendously.
It arrived on time, very well made, and a nice DVD for assembly/use.
I purchased it online, put it together, THEN watched the enclosed DVD and read the documentation. I was very disappointed that I fell into a category listed in the WARNINGS as a DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT. I have a hiatal hernia and the product documentation specifically stated NOT to use this product. I called my physician and he would not comment on it's safety (or not), only that I do indeed have this condition. : (
NOTE: The list of medical conditions that should NOT use this product is quite extensive.
It would have saved me a bit of time if this full list of exclusions would have been listed on the website for the product (excuse me if they were there and I didn't see/find them).
