Do Inversion Tables Work for Back Pain?
Back pain can be a result of chronic stress, poor posture while sitting and working, or injury. Inversion tables are traction therapy. The Mayo Clinic states, “some people find traction temporarily helpful as part of a more comprehensive treatment program for lower back pain caused by spinal disk compression.” Inversion tables provide therapeutic traction between compressed discs. They are one tool that can be used for a pain-relief strategy. Add diet, exercise, stress management and good postural habits, too.
