can you get stuck in a full inversion? is there a pivot control to build up to full inversion?

There is a safety strap to adj. to the level you want to be at before you climb on.

Yes you can you become completely inverted I have not done any ab workout, because I can not stay inverted for very long, the blood runs to my head This is very hard to assemble, the instuctions are not very good. If you do purchase this, when putting together finger tighten the screws first and then tighten after assembled. I used a small rolled up towel behind my back for strech, that seems to help. If I could do over, I really dont think I would purchase.

I experienced the same thing the first couple of times. Once the table is setup properly for my height, all I have to do is move my arms from my upper body to below my waist. You still need to bend down to unlatch the ankle locks, but your back will feel better after inverting a couple of time and the pressure comes off the nerve. I've had the 4--5 disc removed 20 years ago and experienced nervre pain occassionally, but this has help to eliminate that in two to three inversions.

once you have it set, pivot is tightened with a bolt (wrench provided), you make it as tight as you want. Sloppy to no movement. I have mine set to very hard to move so I can still adjust it some without loosening bolt. To raise or lower some (minor adjustment) there is a screw at top, and the left right slider bar is with a knob but still no movement if wanted

You sure can do it alone but I would recommend having someone around for at least the first use. It also depends on your physical habilities and overall health condition. Hanging upside down might not be a solution for everyone no matter what device you are using. Please remember the balanced horizontal position can be rapidly shifted almost by moving a finger....... Finding your balance and managing downward movement is a bit subtile!Hope this would help!

When you are fully inverted it locks into place. You don't have to do anything, but need to bd fully inverted. Your back doesn't really touch the table any more when you are fully inverted.

I apoligize, but have no idea what a rotation inversion feature is. Do to that I don't believe it does.

It doesn't but I have done a few crunches on it without it flipping back up. There is also a safety strap that it comes with that could probably be rigged to lock it in full inversion. It's plenty stable for exercise too. But you would have to "rig" it.

Not that I'm aware of. I flip it upside down and use a Wixey gauge to get me where I need to be.

Yes it does allow full inversion....it has an adjustable safety strap that allows you to choose what degree you want to invert at. It is said to start inverting at 35% and overtime work your way to full inversion.

You can adjust the angle by adjusting the strap underneath the table. I have mine let out completely because I invert completely upside down but it can be adjusted to however far you want to go. God bless you!

It's pretty easy. I've found it's easiest to grab the top middle and pull to the angle I want. The only thing I could consider a downside is that to adjust back down you have to go past the highest adjustment to go back down.

Sorry. I can't answer that as I don't have an inversion table. I bought the back stretcher as a very much less expensive alternative to an inversion table. I think if you have an inversion table it would work by itself better than the back stretcher. Good luck.

Nope. It is a very simple pivot. It can flop this way, or that way. That being said, if you put your feet on it when it's tilted all the way one way, it won't move easily. You have to adjust where your weight is to make it rock.

Thanks for the clarification. I didnt know if that was the limit or not, i assumed i could at least get some directional control but i guess not.

it's really hard to say....my best recommendation would be to try to use one in a store or something. this is one of those things that you gotta try it to see if it works for you. i can't really say it's helping me too much, but my issue might be different than yours...also, you can set it not to go fully upside down, so you can do a low angle inversion if that works better for you...bottom line, make sure this is the product for you before you spend $300 - $400 on it...hope this helped !!

Not sure, but I guess you could, but the whole thing would have to be upside down. I have not encounter your issue. Try it out. Wish you luck.
