Description

Body correction device capable of swing motion {An Inversion Table with Swing Motion}

The technology disclosed in this specification relates to a body correction device capable of swinging motion. More specifically, the existing inverted exercise device further includes a moving part that moves the head, upper body, or lower body of the body left and right and up and down to enable swing motion. It is about a body correction device that does.

Existing inverted exercise equipment is used to reduce the load on the spine, etc. by pointing the head of the user's body toward the ground. However, existing inverted exercise equipment cannot effectively improve physical discomfort symptoms such as cervical stenosis, and there is the inconvenience of having to manually adjust the angle each time when used. In addition, existing inverted exercise equipment has the disadvantage that the risk of accidents may increase when performing dynamic movements as the body simply flips up and down, and most importantly, it is possible to adjust the usage environment according to the user's physical health condition. There is a problem that a method is not provided, so a new exercise device that can improve this problem is required.

The present invention aims to solve the above-described problems and other problems associated therewith.

An exemplary purpose of the present specification is, unlike existing inverted exercise devices, to include upper and lower moving parts that can provide a left-right or up-and-down swing motion to the upper (scapular area) and lower (hip area) of the body, It provides body correction equipment that can effectively improve physical diseases such as various spinal diseases (back pain, disc herniation, sciatica, degenerative spondyloarthritis, glenoid syndrome, and muscle stiffness).

According to the present invention, it provides a natural stretching that gently stretches the muscles in a safe inclination angle range and decompresses the spine and all weight-bearing joints, while stimulating left and right swing and up and down of body parts to strengthen the spinal erectors and fine muscles in deep layers. It corrects the muscle strength of the spine and the balance of the front, rear, left and right sides of the spine, making it possible to recover and improve the strength of various spinal diseases through non-surgical treatment. In other words, inverted decompression through the present invention helps reduce the pressure on the disc by expanding the space between the vertebrae, and at this time, the soft tissue of the disc sufficiently absorbs moisture to restore its original function. It increases the nutrient content as well as plumping the disc so that it has better shock absorption and flexibility.

When the height of the disc decreases, a balloon effect naturally occurs and presses on the passage of the nerve root exiting the spine. In addition, as the height of the disc decreases, the height of the intervertebras sequentially decreases, and the soft tissues (muscles and ligaments) around the spine that fixed the spine according to the original intervertebral height become loose and lose the fixation power of the spine. As this happens, the stability of the spine itself completely collapses, and various spinal damage diseases, including back pain, appear.

Therefore, the present invention is primarily in an inverted decompression position to ensure that the disc is well hydrated, and by adding a swing exercise in the upper and lower parts of the spine, which is operated as the main function in the present invention, the normal disc height is restored and the spine is restored. By strengthening the surrounding soft tissues, it creates a normal, healthy spine.
