Inversion Table

Has anyone ever been told you can't use an inversion table with lap band? Just bought one but never thought about if I could use it or not.

    It is a table where you hang upside down. It is suppossed to be really good for the back. I suffer from lower back pain. Every doctor I have seen said weight lose would help my back. 80 lbs. lost and still have back trouble.

    Inversion tables are pretty much a flat board that spins to were your feet are above your head causing decompression of the spine. They are useful in treating lower back pain. My chiropractor said though he doesn't think they are worth the money. Lay on the floor with your feet perched on a table or wall with your back flat and arms out to the side and it does the same thing and its free.
