Decompression Therapy, Inversion Therapy Tips Jesse Cannone & Steve Hefferon, Healthy Back Institute: The second therapy brought up by Jesse Cannone, founder of The Healthy Back Institute, to Steve Hefferon, Fitness Trainer and Certified Massage Therapist, is that of De-Compression Therapy, which usually involves Inversion Therapy. The Healthy Back Institute markets a number of terrific Inversion Tables and both Jesse and Steve endorse this form of therapy.
Jesse Cannone, author of Teh 7-Day Back Pain Cure, and Steve recommend starting slow with a 25% slope for a couple of week and then moved to 60% and, when ready, full inversion. Jesse points out that this form of back therapy has been going on for thousands of years and has helped untold thousands of patients on their road to recovery and onto fitness and an active lifestyle.
7 key benefits of inversion for the back pain sufferer
While relieving your back pain is your primary reason for considering inversion therapy, there are a number of additional benefits many people experience with a regular program of inversion. Here are 7 good reasons to use inversion therapy:
Maintains your height. Regularly inverting will help you avoid the “shrinkage” that naturally occurs as a result of gravity over a lifetime.
Improves circulation. When you’re inverted, your blood circulation is aided by gravity rather than having to work against it. In addition, with inversion, gravity helps the lymphatic system clear faster, easing the aches and pains of stiff muscles.
Relieves stress. Everyone knows that a full-body stretch is rejuvenating! An inversion table provides the same feeling of relaxation as a yoga class – with a lot less effort. Many people find that they sleep better with regular inversion therapy.
Heightens mental alertness. Any upside-down activity increases the supply of oxygen to the brain, which many experts believe helps maintain mental sharpness.
Increases flexibility and range of motion. With inversion, your joints stay healthy and supple, meaning you can remain as active as you were in your younger years.
Improves posture. The stretching that comes with reversing the force of gravity on your body helps you sit, stand, and move with more ease and grace.
Realigns the spine after workouts. Running and other aerobic activities inevitably compress your spine – often unevenly. One-sided activities such as golf or tennis often pull the spine out of alignment. During inversion, minor misalignments often correct themselves naturally.
