NEW Flex Technology
EP-550 with Adapter Kit
Teeter Hang Ups EP-550 Inversion Table rotates on a pivot system. With simple arm movements (rotation is accomplished by shifting the weight of the arms), the table easily rotates to any comfortable angle. The smooth rotation allows for oscillation and intermittent traction. Adjustable roller hinges allow you to pre-select three levels to control the aggressiveness of rotation, and the tether strap allows you to pre-select the maximum angle of inversion. Comfortable ankle clamps hold you securely while inverting.
And you don't need to fully invert to feel the benefits! With the advanced bed design featuring “Flex Technology” (see image right) you can mobilize and stretch while partially inverted for a more effective decompression experience.
Of course, if you decide you'd like to go to full inversion (half of all users do), Teeter Hang Ups offers the most reliable and responsive inversion tables on the market. While at 90°, you can continue to mobilize, stretch, and even perform inverted exercises like sit-ups and squats! The EP-550 securely and easily "locks" in this position and can be released with simple arm movements.
Although most people find the standard ankle clamps on the EP-550 comfortable, some user's may want more support. That's why Teeter offers a way to convert the table for use with Gravity Boots. Be sure to check out the Teeter Hang Ups EP-550 Sport, which includes the Adapter Kit (CV Bar and Gravity Boots) plus EZ-Stretch Traction Handles - two great accessories that take the Teeter inversion table to the next level!
The EP-550 Inversion Table folds compactly for storage in a closet, corner or under a bed. Every table comes with an instructional DVD and laminated owner's manual. Comes 85% pre-assembled, with the tools needed to complete assembly.

Teeter Hang Ups Power II Inversion tables have been designed with ease-of-use in mind. Unlike inversion products made
for home use that require individualized adjustments, this motorized
unit is operated at the push of a button. The table slowly and easily
rotates to any comfortable angle, allowing for a relaxed inversion experience
every time. Users will appreciate the quality of workmanship and smooth,
quiet motor.
The Power II provides an
easy way to perform inverted stretching or strengthening exercises. When the table rotation is stopped at any angle, the bed is sufficiently
fixed at that angle to allow stretching and light exercise without bed
movement.
Every table comes with an
88-page medical research book on inversion written for "nonmedical"
people. Some assembly required.
The DEX • decompression & extension provides all of the benefits of inversion while holding the user in the 90/90 position, which is the optimum position for decompression of the lower back. From this position, the user is in a body position relevant to gravity that maximizes muscle performance during back extensions while helping to prevent hyperextension.
Improving upon the traditional roman chair, the unique design actually reduces the load on the hamstrings by placing the knees in the relaxed 90° position, rather than forcing less effective, straight-legged exercises.
The DEX II is a forward-rotating, user-controlled inversion machine. The body is placed in a 90/90 position, which helps to flatten the lumbar curve for greater separation of lower vertebrae. Traction is applied to the hip joints and spine, with no loads to the ankles and knee joints. The DEX II is ideal for back extension exercises - it works like a roman chair, but with better ergonomic support – and the unique traction handles offer a method for stretching and increased decompression.
With Teeter Hang Ups®, you can achieve a better back, better body ™ in just a few minutes a day. Experience a wide range of benefits, including relief of back pain, improved posture through better alignment, enhanced circulation and reduced stress. When you want a natural, in-home solution for a healthier back, try inversion – if you value quality, look to Teeter Hang Ups.
Developed by an Inversion Innovator: The industry leader since 1981, Teeter Hang Ups has focused solely on producing the best value inversion equipment with time-proven design features that ensure dependability and user security.

The Lynx offers a compact, portable solution for stretching, relaxing and decompressing the body. With ankles secured in the contoured foot supports, pushing firmly with hands on the leverage handles results in a great stretch.
The moderate, self-administered traction achieved when using the Lynx helps to realign the spine, increase flexibility in the joints, promote relaxation and improve posture through better alignment. Decompressing the discs helps them to rehydrate for better shock absorption and reduced back pain.
Doctors, physical therapists
and sports trainers recognize inversion as a safe and effective form
of therapy for the spine and weight-bearing joints. In fact, the
US Army is writing Inversion into its worldwide physical training manual
that will be adopted for the new millennium.
Inversion elongates the
spine, increasing the space between the vertebrae, which relieves
the pressure on discs, ligaments and nerve roots. Less pressure means
less back pain.
Inverting yourself to as little as 25° for even a few minutes can
help relax tense muscles and speed the flow of lymphatic fluids which
flush out the body's wastes and carry them to the blood stream. The
faster this waste is cleared, and fresh supplies of oxygen are introduced,
the faster stiffness and pain in the muscles can disappear. A study
conducted by physiotherapist L.J. Nosse found that, "EMG (electromyographic)
activity, an indicator of muscle pain, declined over 35% within ten
seconds of assuming the inverted position. See
Medical Studies
Inversion Helps Improve
Circulation and Accelerates the Cleansing of Blood and Lymph Fluids
The cardiovascular system is made up of the heart, veins, arteries,
and capillaries. It is your body's transportation system, carrying food
and oxygen to your body's cells. Your heart pumps blood through the
system: oxygen-rich blood from the lungs goes out through the arteries
and waste-filled blood comes back through the veins to be cleansed and
recharged with oxygen. The cardiovascular system also retrieves blood
from your legs and lower torso, carrying it upwards against the force
of gravity. Inversion allows your body to work with gravity to ease
the circulation process.
Unlike the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system has no pump.
Only the alternate contraction and relaxation of muscles moves lymphatic
fluid "uphill" through capillaries and one-way valves to the
upper chest for cleansing. Inverting the body so that gravity works
with, not against, these one-way valves helps to push the lactic fluid
up to the chest. The faster the lymphatic system is cleared the faster
the ache and pain of stiff muscles disappears.
Inversion Helps Increase Oxygen Flow to the Brain Your heart
must work against gravity to pump blood up to your brain, which is the
body's largest consumer of oxygen. Although it is only three percent
of the body's total weight, the brain consumes 25 percent of the body's
oxygen intake.
Win Wenger, in How to Increase Your Intelligence, noted that "only
those brain cells which are close to an ample capillary blood supply
are thoroughly developed. Away from such source of supply, brain cells
remain undeveloped and useless. " Wenger describes "upside
down activities" to increase oxygen supply to the brain. He states,
"In short, you can much improve the physical state of your entire
brain." A brain that is better nourished simply works better.
Some people claim that increasing the circulation of blood to the head
through inversion may also improve the color and tone of your skin,
stimulate mental alertness, and improve hearing and vision. In addition,
some claim that hair will be healthier, and may even grow again, if
the scalp is well supplied with blood.
Peter Russell notes in The Brain Book that the deterioration of the
brain is not directly linked to age alone. Rather, this deterioration
is caused by hardening arteries and high blood pressure, both of which
decrease the supply of oxygen to the brain. Thus a major step in reducing
mental deterioration (or senility) over time may simply be increasing
the oxygen supply to the brain. Keeping the brain active and well supplied
with oxygen may help maintain your brain function and mental sharpness
throughout your entire life. (NOTE: If you have high blood pressure,
consult your physician before starting an inversion program.)
Relieves Varicose Veins:
By stimulating circulation, inversion has been known to relieve varicose
veins. Varicose veins are caused when blood pools in the veins due to
weakened one-way valves. The downward pull of gravity causes blood to
slip back, and over time the vein will distend and become painful. When
inverting, the pressure is relieved and the heart is able to clear the
blood from the lower body.

43% of Teeter Hang Ups customers purchaseTeeter Hang Ups products for relief of back
pain. 57% purchase for wellness issues (circulation, relieve stress,
and decompression).
Dr. Nathaniel Wirt, D.C. "Hanging a few minutes everyday made my back stronger and eventually
all the pain disappeared! My back became stronger than it had ever been.
I began exercising, including walking and jogging, with no back strains
resulting. Today I am 55 years old, my posture is good, and I am healed.
The daily inversion stimulated postural and circulatory changes in my
body. Better posture was practiced, (standing straighter with thighs
tightened and shoulders back). This caused my abdomen to flatten out-
no sit-ups or crunches. Other physical changes occurred: My complexion
improved and wrinkles and fleshy parts of my face and neck diminished!"
When inversion is coupled with posture and toning exercises, internal
organs assume their proper position. For example, from left to right,
the spleen, stomach, pancreas, liver, and gall bladder are supposed
to rest just under the diaphragm and "move" with every breath.
When organs are not in their best physiological position, these membranes
are compromised, effecting nerve and blood flow."
Dr. Robert Bouvier, MD "We have found
significant improvement using various inversion techniques which needs
further exploration. However, we are very excited about the results
thus far. After two weeks on the inversion table on a daily basis urinary
incontinence disappeared in two female patients. We have used the inversion
table on chronic bronchitis as well as asthmatics."
Dr. John Huber, D.C. "I have been using your inversion products in my chiropractic
office for the past 14 years. Your inversion equipment is the best on
the market, and my patients have benefited greatly from their inversion
therapy."
Amy Jane Simons "I think the STL inversion equipment is an invaluable tool in
back rehabilitation. My physician recommended the use of your inversion
table three times daily as part of an active course of physical therapy
I noticed results almost immediately. My back injuries have almost completely
healed."
Victor Faraci "After using {Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Equipment}, I have noticed
an amazing change in my flexibility, after only a few weeks of use.
My golf game is much improved due to greater shoulder mobility. I whole-heartedly
attest to the benefits of this product."
Christopher Peterson "With the Teeter F5000III I noticed a remarkable improvement in my
posture and my walk. Before using the inversion table I had muscle spasms
and back problems."
Clara Smith "Inverting daily keeps my body stretched, relaxed, symmetrical.
The adult acne that I've had since the age of 29 has nearly disappeared.
The cold hands and feet that I have experienced for years has disappeared.
"
Nancy Smith "In 1982 I started inverting. I was 52 years old then, and over
the years I managed to change just about everything; everything from
a badly misaligned hip, feet with corns and a walk with a limp to bad
tarter on my teeth. Yes, it changed that too! "
John Matalamaki, motor cycle
racer. "As a long time motorcycle racer with a chronic bad back, I've
been very impressed with pain relief I've gotten with the daily use
of Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table. It is the best rehabilitation and maintenance
device I have ever used."
Donald Myrah, mountain bike
racer. "In the past I have often had problems with my lower back tightening
on training rides and during races. After using your the Teeter Hang Ups Inversion
Table, I do not have the problem with my lower back tightening as before."
Rick Maisel, Active Athlete
"I have found that 100 upside down sit-ups are equal to 1000
regular sit-ups (with less strain on the back)."
Mike Sandber, Skydiver "Getting inverted relieves and relaxes not only my joints and
vertebrae but lets my organs and blood flow more naturally. Being inverted
at least 30 minutes a day improves my performance capability by stimulating
my vestibular system and allows decompression of my spine to occur."
Jim Whitesel, Seattle Seahawks
Football Team Trainer "Professional football places a great deal of stress to the
lumbar sacral area of the spine. Inversion assisted stretching is quite
beneficial."
Dr. W G W, Chief Department
of Surgery "I would like to report to you that I have had extraordinary
success in patients using inversion. Its essential value is the ability
of the patient to prevent the onset of a more irreversible symptom complex
by having the device available."
Product Quality "40% of Teeter Hang Ups consumers say that Quality is the most important
reason for purchasing Teeter Hang Ups products.Teeter Hang Ups has received many
letters testifying to this fact."
Derek Snow, Birmingham, AL
"I've made a lot of purchases for gym accessories, but never
have I been as pleased or excited about a product as yours."
JF Sylar, West Jordan, UT

could benefit from if they were aware of its benefits."
Ron & Elizabeth Dutcher
"Thanks again for such a well-made and well-conceived piece
of health-giving equipment."
Bob Sherin, Miami, FL "From its simplicity and durability, the expertise put into
the design of Teeter Hang Ups is manifest. I can say in all honesty that your
product has markedly improved the quality of my life"
Patricia Perkins "I'm enjoying your very well-made machine. After [working out]

WA "Thanks again for 14 years [now 18] of quality service. Safe,
affordable, and effective products like yours are what we need in the
health profession."
Chris L. Harrison, D.C.,
Vestavia Hills, AL "I really have a hard time expressing in words how happy I am
that you have engineered your products in the way that you have. Right
now, I will settle for thank you, thank you, thank you."
· Sheffield, F.: Adaptation of Tilt Table for Lumbar Traction.
Arch Phys Med Rehabil 45: 469-472, 1964.
175 patients who were unable to work due to back pain were treated.
After eight inversion treatments, 155 patients were able to return to
their jobs full time. Study concluded that the main basis for improvement
was the stretching of paraspinal vertebral muscles and ligaments and
possibly the widening of intravertebral discs.
Study found significant improvements in a variety of diagnosis including
spondylolisthesis, herniated discs, lumbar osteoarthritis with sciatica,
and coccygodynia. Patient experienced traction in a modified hip flexed
position.
It is worth noting that previous to his use of inversion therapy, Dr.
Sheffield regularly used mechanical traction with weights and pulleys.
He considered inverted traction much more effective than mechanical
traction.

increases the spinal length. Study concluded there is a correlation
between a reduction in emg activity and an increase in spinal length.

Lumbar Distraction. Arch Phys Med Rehabil 66: 100-102, Feb 85.
Study found all subjects experienced intravertebral separation in the
lower lumbar vertebrae. Study concluded that although mechanical traction
has been used for centuries, only gravity assisted traction (inversion)
offers an effective means of achieving pelvic traction at home.

presents no risk to normotensive healthy subjects.
· Dimberg, L, et al: Effects of gravity-facitliated traction
of the lumbar spine in persons with chronic low back pain at the workplace.
116 people were enrolled in the randomized controlled trial which lasted
for 12 months. A randomized controlled trial with two training groups
and one control group was conducted to asses the effect of gravity inversion
on pain level and absenteeism due to LBP. Average age = 44 years. 77%
men
Group 1: used inversion for 10 minutes 1/day
Group 2: used inversion for 10 minutes 2/day
Group 3: control group
Results after 12 months of training program: 1. The employees in Group
1 and 2 decreased sick days due to back pain by 33%. 2. Average sick
days to due back pain fell by 8 days per individual in the treated group.
3. "Inversion is an efficient and cheap way to improve employee
health and possibly reduce sick day costs to the employer."
Nachemson, Alf, et al:
Intravital Dynamic Pressure Measurements in Lumbar Discs. 1970.
Study measured internal disc pressure (in the 3rd lumbar disc) through
a range of activities, including standing, sitting, bending and vertical
and supine traction. The study suggests that a traction load of 60%
body weight is sufficient to reduce the residual pressure of 25% standing
body weight to zero.
______________________________________________________________________ CONTRAINDICATIONS
Inversion therapy can provide innumerable benefits to your health.
Inversion can relieve back pain, decompress the spine, stretch muscles
and ligaments, relieve stress, improve circulation and help maintain
overall good health.
However, inversion is not for everyone. If you have any of the following
health conditions, please do not invert without your licensed physician's
approval (this is not an exhaustive list - it is intended only for your
reference.)
Anti-Coagulants (Use of): Blood-thinning drugs or aspirin to reduce
clotting of the arteries and blood vessels. The use of anti-coagulants
signals people at risk for circulatory problems. Advise speaking with
a physician before inverting.
Bone weakness, recent fractures, skeletal implants: Having a person's
weight pulling down when inverted may exacerbate these conditions. Osteoporosis
is a calcium deficiency disease in which the bones become porous, brittle,
and very weak. Advise speaking with a physician before inverting.
Conjunctivitis - (Pink eye): An inflammation of the transparent
membrane that covers the front surface of the eyeball and the inner
surface of the eyelids caused by bacterial or viral infection. Advise
speaking with a physician before inverting.
Glaucoma: A condition of elevated pressure within the eye because
of an obstruction of the outflow of the clear, watery fluid circulating
in the chambers of the eye. The resulting pressure (which is imperceptible
without an eye exam) kills cells in the optic nerve, which can lead
to a gradual loss of vision. Anyone with an eye condition should speak
with a physician before inverting.
Heart / circulatory disorders: Any condition involving the circulatory
system. Speak with a physician before inverting.
Hiatal hernia, ventral hernia: A hiatal hernia occurs when intra-abdominal
pressure increases cause a portion of the stomach to move into the chest
cavity through a weakness in the diaphragm. A ventral hernia develops
at the site of previous surgery, usually along vertical incisions. It
may also result from weakness in the abdominal wall. Advise speaking
with a physician before inverting.
High blood pressure, hypertension: A common disorder in which
the heart is pumping blood through the circulatory system with a force
greater than that required for normal blood flow. An elevated blood
pressure which exceeds 140/90. It is true that certain people should
not invert if they have uncontrolled high blood pressure. However, inversion
can cause a state of relaxation that results in a drop in heart rate
and BP (sometimes even lower than at a resting state). Some doctors
have used inversion as a treatment for high BP. Advise speaking with
a physician before inverting.
Middle ear infection: The middle ear helps equalize air pressure
in the ear. A person may feel discomfort or disorientation during inversion.
Advise speaking with a physician before inverting.
Obesity (extreme): In some people obesity can be associated with
the undetected onset of many of the circulatory and eye problems mentioned
above. The weight capacity of each of the inversion products should
not be exceeded.
Pregnancy: Pregnant women should exercise caution when inverting.
Advisable to talk with physician first.
Retinal detachment: A separation of the retina, the thin, delicate
membrane covering the rear portion of the eye, from the optic nerve.
Usually results from a hole in the retina that allows the vitreous humor
fluid to leak. Treatment is almost always surgical. A retinal hemorrhage,
in most cases, can heal by itself. Anyone with an eye condition should
speak with a physician before inverting.
Spinal injury: Any severe spinal cord trauma requires a person to
consult their physician before inverting.
Stroke: Occurs when a blood vessel in the neck or brain becomes
blocked or when a vessel in the brain bursts open. Symptoms include
paralysis, difficulty speaking, memory loss, and impaired thought processes.
Transient ischemic attack: Often called a "mini-stroke,"
a TIA occurs when the blood supply is temporarily interrupted to a part
of the brain due to a blockage. Often precedes the onset of a full stroke,
and requires immediate action.
