Key Features

EZ Reach Ankle System

During my first few inversion attempts, my constant fear was sliding off the table completely.

With the safe and comfortable ankle locks of the Teeter EP-970, I was able to overcome that fear.

I feel secure with the triple lock and the snug fit of the ankle support. The footrest is also adjustable so it is comfortable for any foot size.

I love that the handle for the ankle lock is quite long. Because of my back problems, I appreciate the minimized bending requirement.

 

Preset Inversion Angles

I prefer starting off with mild inversion to allow my back to warm up before proceeding to more acute angles.

The EZ-Angle Tether has preset options of 20, 40 and 60 degrees.

It enables you to easily adjust and control your inversion and makes it easy for you to adjust and control your inversion.

 

ComforTrak Bed

While its backrest is not padded like some inversion tables, I like how it feels as if it’s naturally part of my back because it flexes with my movement.

There is a removable head pillow that I can place wherever it feels comfortable.

It also has nice accessories for extra comfort.

There are Accupressure nodes that provide targeted pressure for muscle relief. These have 4 options to meet different user heights.

I also love the lumbar bridge! I can really feel the deep decompression as it supports my lower back.

 

Function-Filled Handles

The handles are primarily for assisting you in going back to the upright position.

But the Teeter EP-970 Ltd has every handle and grip surface especially designed for better comfort and maximized stretching.

In addition, there are strategically located handholds in the ComforTrak Bed. You can hold on to them and pull yourself for added stretching and realignment.
