7.2 Exercise caution during use
Despite its many advantages, inversion therapy or using an inversion table is not
right for everyone. If you have one of the following symptoms, consult a physician
before using the product (the following list contains only examples and is in no way
exhaustive):
• Use of anticoagulants (substances that thin blood such as aspirin)
• Weak or fractured bones: The pressure of body weight may worsen these
conditions.
• Conjunctivitis due to a virus or bacterial infection
• Glaucoma (constant excess intraocular pressure)
• Cardiovascular problems: Consult your physician before using the product if you
have any circulatory disorders.
• Inguinal hernia or diaphragmatic hernia
• High blood pressure (above 140/90)
• Infection of the middle ear
• Pregnancy
• Retinal detachment
• Spinal injuries
• Stroke
• Transient ischemic attacks
The inversion table is designed for a maximum user weight of 135 kg.
IMPORTANT: While on the inversion table, always adjust your weight and make
movements carefully and calmly, as the table may tip over if you move suddenly, leading
to serious injury or death.
7.3 General notes
Always wear appropriate clothing and footwear when working out. Keep children away
from the unit at all times, especially while it is in use.
7.4 Directions for use
Before use, adjust the foot rest length setting so that the table could remain in a
horizontal position without being held by the handles when you are lying with your
arms by your sides. Your body weight is then balanced and you can adjust the incline
by slightly moving one or both of your arms. As a general rule in inversion training, the
greater the incline angle, the shorter the duration.
