Not sure, most popular for Achilles/plantar fasciitis (BTW, Treat Your Own Achilles Tendinitis, The 5 Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution helpful too)

My boyfriend has Sciatica and he now swears by the Teeter 960. When we first got together about 5 years ago, he suffered debilitating pain from this awful condition. I had a different (lesser) model inversion table at the time and the first time he "dangled", it relieved so much of his pain, he talked me into buying a sturdier model (he's kind of a big guy.) Personally, I suffer from a herniated disc, between L-5 and S-1 and it has ended my relationship with my Chiropractor. My father has had back surgery and has both arthritis and fused discs and he also "dangles" daily. Trust me, nothing feels as good as putting yourself in traction.

I'm having trouble with this too. Just did a little experiment: the problem is the glass cup and not the steel handle, because no matter which handle I use on one particular cup, it slips off. Washing and drying the exterior of the cup didn't help.

Hi Donna I would say yes there would be a replacement for broken items including the cups. Although I use mine quite a bit have had no problems with anything breaking. Contact Amazon shop site and I am sure they will be able to help you. Thanks Dorothy

It is as advertised. The rubber cups have a tendency to fall off of this item which I knew because we have had this item before. I put some super glue on the threads and screw them back on and they last a lot longer. We have a walnut tree over our driveway and we use the gopher to pick them up to save our backs. My wife and I have both picked up hundreds of them with no problems. We also use them to "police" the area by the road from the many driveby litterbugs in our neighborhood. Great invention. Could it be more durable? Yes. But it's cheaper than a chiropractor bill and better than other models I've seen. Hope this answers your question. It is as advertised.

One bag play sand from Home Depot....but it had so many pebbles in it. We filtered out largest ones. Maybe someone else has better play sand. Do NOT use paver sand as this will harden when wet and of course it will with water so close. Sand from a garden center maybe? But... One bag was sufficient even after pebble removal. Enjoy your table!!

I had trouble w/the one I bought long ago. The bean shaped ball can be replaced at local shops like Gart or Big 5 sports in our area. I gave it away long ago since it required too much jumping for my knee conditions. I don't know if anything else broke or not but I had read quite a bit of negative feedback. Mostly HE is annoying. I prefer Denise Austin or the 5 mi walking CD's. Stairs are cheaper workouts!

Stanley may have gotten a bad bottle, but I also get the impression that he is a sad, lonely, bitter, spiteful, unhappy human being and he has my sympathy.I have had mine for going on four years. It is really amazing how well they work. I have given half-dozen or so as gifts, and everyone loves them. I see them everywhere now too.Getting to the point, I checked hydroflask.com, and regrettably it looks like they are no longer making the sport cap. I don't like them, but mom uses the one on her 'flask daily and loves it. I think we should encourage them to bring them back, don't you?

I did and it didn't seem to matterMuch one way or another. If I got a positive sometimes I would redo with the cup but for the most part stream seemed to work just fine. Good luck!

I'm sorry - I know absolutely nothing about the Shelti Breakout table. I would hope that for an extra $400, it would be a nicer version. My only comment is that two players broke at the ankles shortly after our purchase. Carrom replaced them free of charge, but it was surprising they broke under normal playing conditions. I would try to find both games in a local store and compare their features and quality first-hand.

I would not buy again. Net never stayed closed. I have seen thicker gauge steel. My daughter broke her ankle jumping on it. Will never get any kind of trampoline again. The American academy of pediatrics thinks they are one of the most dangerous items for children. Good luck.

You are really going to laugh at this answer. I bought this chilly mat for myself Karen not Gary. I suffer night sweats and this is awesome. I love it wished I had it years ago. And I did buy a small one for our male frech bully he over excites and he has his own fan I have placed his mat in front of his fan and he has started using it more. It works however he seems unsure about laying on it.

Got mine August 2012 and it's ... failing. I completely turn it every month, it's under a mattress pad, I weigh about 120, but it's developed "cracks" and where my hips are (yes, I know laying down your hips are the heaviest area), it's really kind of "crushed". I loved this SO much - fibro, herniated L4-5 with recurring sciatica, arthritis but now I have to think about trying to scrape up money to get a new topper and I'm not sure I want to get another of this one. Mine hasn't lasted a year and it's just me and occasionally my cat.

The knee cushion on this was very hard. My mom made me a really thick cushion that was covered in fleece and attached underneath with elastic. Think the old dish covers that snugged over the dish with elastic. It was a lifesaver! My knee was very sore even with the cushion. Find someone who sews to make something before you need it. I would recommend several layers of cushion as opposed to one thick piece of foam. I hope you heal up quickly!

Did not help me at all - I had to return my inserts. But the inserts bought from gravity defyer seem to be the best so far. I agree with Rams1526, will not cure the issue. You can try Sombra pain relieving gel for some additional relief.

I agree that the handle is below average for use on wear and tear. It breaks easily, although I do not even use my set anymore after the first couple of tries. If memory serves me correctly I thought the warranty covered parts for 1 years..but not completely sure. Sorry you are going through this. In future, I would HIGHLY recommend changing to the blue rubber type cups where you use your hand only to apply. They take some getting use to also, but in the long run they are worth the investment I think. Good luck.

Im going to save you much grief and advise you stay as far away from the gamer as possible. This gamer had great review vet only a few. RED FLAG! I would put money down that those were employee or family members trying to help their product along. You have to have clean hands to use it....... well I dont know about you but my kids hands are always getting into stuff and getting dirty. Good luck.
