There are 3 BIG PROBLEMS with High Angle Inversion Tables that Gravity Pal Solves. High Angle Inversion Problem #1: Potential Ligament Damage and Ankle Pain.

What most people do not realize is, that movie kick started a movement away from Low Angle Inversion and toward radical Upside Down and High Angle Inversion. The history of seeking relief from gravity goes back to ancient times. There are reports from around 400 B.C. of Hippocrates observing people being lashed to ladders that were then hung upside down; presumably the “patients” were volunteers.
