How long would you use the inversion table for each time?

Re: Inversion Therapy
It really depends... we suggest most people start out slow, meaning a minute or two (maybe less) and not complete inversion...
Then gradually build yourself up to more time and work towards full inversion...
Like everything... "it's all an experiment" and you have to really listen to your body.

Ok, what would you suggest as a maximum time once you were comfortable with it?
Thanks for the quick response!

Re: Inversion Therapy
I find that more than 3-5 mins can be a bit much for some people. As I always say, experiment.
For me, whenever I invert, it's full inversion for 3-5 mins and I tend to do it only occasionally, kind of on as needed basis... whenever I feel tight or have not stretched enough or consistently.

I have a hyatica hernia, and I have heard inversion cannot be used with this injury. I really want to try it.

Re: Inversion Therapy
I usually go for 15 to 20 minutes at 30 degree inversion and it works fine for me.
