Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Whether you want to reduce back stress or fatigue or stimulate your blood circulation, the Ironman Gravity 1000 inversion table makes a great household accessory. The inversion table contributes to your body's overall health by optimizing lumbar traction, thereby relieving pressure on your vertebrae discs and ligaments. And when your back starts to relax, the rest of your body follows. The table can also help with such areas as increasing body flexibility for improved athletic performance, reducing the effects of aging due to gravity, and relieving lower backaches due to sitting or standing.

The Gravity 1000 boasts a durable tubular steel frame with a scratch-resistant powder-coated finish. The backrest, meanwhile, is made of a tough nylon material that's extremely durable yet still comfortable when the table is in use. Most importantly, the inversion system is a breeze to use: once you rest your body against the nylon backrest and slip your feet into the ergonomically molded ankle cushions, simply reach your arms over your head. As your arms go up, your body gradually inverts up to 90 degrees. The only inputs are your energy and gravity itself.

Users will also appreciate the tough rubber non-skid floor stabilizers, which keep the table stable while you invert, and the extra-long safety handles, which provide an easy return to an upright position. Other details include a height-adjustable frame up to 6 feet 6 inches; support for up to 300 pounds; vinyl safety side covers to protect hands and fingers; and a durable spring-loaded ankle locking system. The Gravity 1000, which folds into a compact footprint for easy storage, measures 25 by 62 by 49 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 46 pounds.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Value, Solid Piece of Equiptment, June 11, 2008

By	L. Gordy (Jacksonville, FL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I received a manual and detailed instructions for assembly. My husband and I spent about 45 mins putting it together - I wouldn't say it was real easy, but it wasn't rocket science. This inversion table is built solid - it doesn't appear to be "cheap". As soon as I got on it, I felt a difference in my lower back. I have a herniated disc between L4-L5. I wasn't sure that an inversion table would provide much "decompression" or traction. The stretch I felt in my lower back was immediate, and it felt very similar to the stretch I felt when I had DTS (like a VAX-D machine) at my chiropractor's office. The DTS machine is expensive and the most you can use it is three times a week, but you can use the inversion table several times a day if you have the time. However, you can't stay inverted for long - I can't imagine ever being inverted for more than 10 mins at a time, and I only stayed inverted for a few minutes each time. It only makes sense that if you feel funny, sit up/stand up on the machine for a few minutes until you feel normal and then try again for less time.

The big drawback of this and most other inversion tables is that getting out of the inverted position requires you to bend at the waist and sit up - maybe there is a better way to do this, but it doesn't really seem that you can control the rate at which you sit up. For me, sitting up like this after my lower back has been stretched/pulled, is uncomfortable - but with my herniated disc its expected for me to have discomfort when I bend or twist. I know that there are inversion tables out there that have more sophisticated "righting" mechanisms, but they are at least 3x as much as this one. I think this device is a great price - perfect for some one trying inversion therapy for the first time. I don't know if after using this table for a few weeks, I'll notice long-term improvement or if it will just provide temporary relief. I will post again after a 3-4 weeks to say whether I think its significantly improved my back condition or not.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great table for the price., December 21, 2007

By	GSMRN "Gerry" (Toledo, OH) - See all my reviews

This is my first inversion table and I chose it because of the price and 300# rating. It is extremely well constructed and amazyling sturdy. Given the fact it is one of the cheaper ones on here, I did not expect it to be such a great product. I would defenitely recommend this to anyone whether experienced or new to inversion tables.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Choice!, January 1, 2008

By	Joseph S. Shockey Jr. "mumbles" (Missouri) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I received my inversion table as a gift. Assembly was fairly easy and I had it together and ready for use in less than 30 minutes.

After the first time I used it, I felt the benefits. My entire body felt much more flexible. I can only imagine how I'll feel after using it for an extended period of time. I plan to incorporate inversion therapy as part of my daily workout.

Great choice for anyone looking for an inexpensive way to get into inversion therapy. I can't imagine getting anything better at two or three times the cost.
