Inversion Therapy

Inversion treatments are safe and effective. It involves being upside down at a specific angle for therapeutic purposes. This therapy allows the back to be fully relaxed, elongated, and stress free without straining the body. When the body’s weight is excluded from the back and legs, it is easier for the body to relax and release the tension that has accumulated, thus allowing the joints to decompress themselves. Dr. Neilen uses this technique his patients, including those suffering from chronic back pain.

Although nothing is guaranteed to be 100% effective, the majority of patients have had positive outcomes regarding this treatment. Inversion therapy is said to be effective not only for those suffering back pain but to aide in sit ups, crunches, and other core work out methods that are successful to help the back work properly as well. This includes gravity boots for more support that can be used to protect the ankles and legs from feeling too much pressure.
