1. Glowing skin.. flush nutrients & oxygen to face and hair follicles of the scalp, giving you a natural ‘face lift’ and healthy glow.
2. Natural anti-depressant.. flushes adrenal glands stimulating the release of endorphins making you feel uplifted.
3. Aids digestion. When you invert, it allows gravity to work in a way that gets things moving along.
4. Improve Immunity.. Inversions help stimulate lymphatic cleansing and drainage, clearing toxins from tissues.
5. Promotes sounder sleep… studies have proven that EMG activity, (a measure of muscle tension) declines by 35% within 10 seconds of inverting. Muscle tension can contribute to feelings of anxiety & insomnia.
