Warning: injury to foot
Worked well on my back however clamped injures my foot. I had to go to an orthopedic surgeon who diagnosed me with traumatic neurovascular bundle from hanging. I've had edema for about 2 weeks

    Something everyone should at least try
    To be honest the first time I got on I started at the 60° angle and I was a bit anxious after 23 times on it. I've actually been able to relax lay back and watch TV lol I want to get used to the 60° angle before I go to the full 90°, but I do see a big difference in my lower back and my shoulders I go to massage therapy once a month, so I'll wait till this weekend to see what my therapist says. If he actually she's any difference in me.

    Takes some getting used to but worth it!
    Using an inversion table takes some getting used to. I purchased this to help me with my neuropathy and have seen great results in just the first month. It is also helping my back and neck, reducing stress and tension as well as loosening the muscles.

    Overall Assessment From a 95 year old
    The inversion table definitely reverses compression in the spinal column and relieves pressure on nerves especially associated with pain due to sciatica and muscle tension and related pain in other areas of my back. Extreme pain in my left shoulder blade and from right side rib damage in my youth is being relieved. Low back pain from a chiropractor error twelve years ago is being relieved as well. I have overdone inversion time and am very gradually increasing my inversion time. Also I am gradually increasing the inversion angle. Get started with a person standing by just in case your initial balance point settings don't allow you to easily rotate back up. I needed time to regain flexibility in raising my arms overhead to get the inversion rotation started. I also have a bubble gut that was countering my arm weight. When I was inverted my bubble gut slid toward my rib cage preventing me from rotating to the upright position. I used some very light wrist weights to give enough counterbalance weight to invert and then to return to upright. My son was standing by to make sure I did not get stuck. I now have practiced enough to use the Teeter on my own. I am a mechanical engineer and have a tendency to skip over directions. Definitely follow directions especially in relation to the balance point settings. Some suggestions: 1) the low back arch plate needs to be more flexible and longer to allow for a more gentle arch under the low back; 2) advise to not over tighten the ankle restraint otherwise it may be to tight to allow wiggle room to press the release button; 3) I would like to see a softer and lower in height Fit Spine Posture Restore cushions; 4) I would like to have adjustment from upright to horizontal; 5) would be great to lock and unlock the incline position so that sit up type motion or other torso lifting motion and exercise could be done on the LX 9 or other Teeter platforms.

    Another Satisfied Teeter Customer!
    I use to go to a chiropractor for adjustments. Feeling that having my spine manually adjusted could at some point do more harm rather than good. I had heard about inversion tables for years and how gravity could naturally put your spine back into its natural position by using this device for roughly 10 minutes a day. I recently decided to purchase the Teeter. After looking at all of the models vs price I decided on the LX9. I have had this device for a little more than a month and I am already enjoying the effects. I feel like some of the stiffness in my shoulders, neck, and back are diminishing. After becoming disabled several years ago after multiple surgeries on various body parts, I felt the Teeter along with a strict diet and exercise regime would help me in feeling better. Having worked in the pre-hospital health care industry for over 32 years, not following the best of eating habits, due to the demanding rigors of my job, left me beatup and battered physically. The Teeter is simple to use, and by feeling the benefits of what this product is capable of doing, I look forward to the benefits the Teeter will provide me with in the future!

    Learning To Manage Pain Is Key!
    A cousin who drives tractor trailers told me of his successful use of an inversion table (TEETER). Once my back herniation and sciatica left me using a walker, medication and thoughts of surgery, i decided to give the FitSpine LX9 a try. It has been 3 weeks since i began using it. I am walking WITHOUT the use of a walker, reduced to medication on an as-needed basis, and am gradually getting back to normal routine walks, pilates classes and hot yoga! Thank you SO much for helping me deal with my body by moving toward a state of overall WELLNESS!

    LX9 ease of use
    Comfortable and easy to use. Love the handle to lock in the ankles. Was able to quickly progress through the various angles but still haven't quite made the jump to full inversion. I find it very relaxing and probably spend more time than I should inverted.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ AWESOMENESS
    I absolutely love this inversion table and the relief I'm experiencing with gradual progression with the easy to use adjustment features of the LX9... Once it finally arrived it was very easy to set up and begin my decompression journey. I'm so far EXTREMELY PLEASED with my new TEETER LX9 And would recommend this device for anyone with back and severe sciatic pain as I have... or just needing to decompress the spine for a great relief !!!

    Smooth ride
    It's smooth and comfortable. I have only been on one table years ago, put my arm up and in a second was vertical. Blood in my head made me panic and couldn't flip upright. That was not a Teeter ! I can almost stop at any degree just by moving my hand a little bit.

    Should you use inversion with spondylolisthesis?
    I have a grade two spondylolisthesis in L4 and L5 and have read that inversion should not be used with my condition. My doctor suggested that I should try the inversion method to see it that might help relieve the discomfort in my lower back (along with the hip pain I was having). He basically said at this point you have nothing to lose and didn't want to resort to fusion surgery. Well, after a little more than a month of using the LX9 I have noticed a difference in my discomfort level. The discomfort is not as prevalent and I believe it's been a combination of daily inversion and some stretching recommended by doctor. I'm not yet at full inversion, but I am looking forward to going to the next level. The LX9 has helped me and for that I'm grateful.

    Old Man's Back Unacceptable
    I was born in 1957, so I accepted my lower back issues as part of the aging process. A couple of years ago, the 'old man's' back (which I was willing to live with) went to the next level when the sciatic nerve began to make itself known. I don't like taking pills, so I passed on the Gabapentin option and went to PT for a couple of months, and got nowhere. They suggested I build my core, which I did, and this definitely helped. But not enough. I am an avid golfer and one day about six months ago my pain went to a new level - the knife in the back feeling that almost brought me to my knees. I had an MRI done, and felt that surgery was the next step when they found I had a smaller diameter (Thoracic) vertebrae mixed in with the larger (Lumbar) vertebrae. The larger vertebrae, over time, compressed the spinal cord opening to the point it impinged the spinal cord. Naturally, they wanted to start me on a Meloxicam regimen before any surgery. This motivated me to try inversion therapy, which I have been doing now for almost a month - usually twice per day and three times on weekends. So far, the results are good, and I can play golf again, but I think it is going to take more time in my case to restore the compressed vertebrae and have a normal back again. The back feels better, even great at times, and I love the sit ups for building the core even more! I realize this is a lifetime commitment, and statistically I don't have as far to go as most, but for me, it is all about quality of life, and I am not willing to concede anything to the ravages of age!

    Love the teeter.
    My wife and I enjoy using an after a long day at work. It release the tension that we have on our back and also works on my sciatic nerve

    It's a Wonderful Thing!
    After spending a lot of time sitting lately getting some important things accomplished, I started feeling my back tense up. I tried exercise in the pool etc. and could not get it right. It was either a chiropractor or a teeter. I chose the teeter because it made sense to me from the beginning. At age 72 I have used the teeter for a month now once a day and even though I don't invert all the way, my back feels like new. I am proud to have it to use whenever I want or need.

    Never thought it would
    Never in 1 million years did I think this was actually going to help me, when I took it out of the box I was prepared keeping everything so I could send it back. Wow was I wrong!! I even took it to Florida with me on vacation in my RV, that's how awesome it is.. 100% instant relief as soon as the first day, thank you so much

    Stay healthy and play hard!
    I bought my teeter after missing one day of work and not being able to play with my grandchildren. My lower back has been pain free after starting the teeter exercises. I'm 62 years old and I'm back to playing like a youngster again! Water skiing, snow skiing, motocross, and playing with my grandchildren. I have worked at the Kennedy Space Center and related to Mr Teeters technical insight and his sports activity. I'm also the coach of a world class athlete that held the World slalom record for 7 years. Staying healthy is very important!

    It does what they say it does
    I am glad that I ordered something that actually does what they said it would do. I am glad that I bought it. After using it for a month I am confident that I will be using this machine to prevent any back problems that I hear so many people have. I am a painter and because I look up and down alot I have had bulging disks in my neck and my finger would get numb. I had to hang over my bed to relieve it. Now I don't have any numbness anymore and my back feels relief that I get after a night sleep. I I was so excited that I had many people come over to try it and they all wish they had one. My wife started using it now (who does desk work) and says that her back feels better after sitting so long. One thing I added to the machine from the packaging in the box is a soft foam piece held on with the zip ties. I added this so that it doesn't slam down hard when I come down from inverting. I live in an apartment and I don't want complaints from the people below. It works great!
