Neck Restore
• Place the Neck Restore on the inversion table at your desired height.
Feed the Hook & Loop straps through the holes and secure on the
other side of the table bed (Figure 1).
• Properly mount the table and secure the Ankle Lock System
(see Owner’s Manual for details). Gently lower your neck onto the
Neck Restore to check its placement.
• The rubber insert should sit comfortably at the base of your head. You
may need to modify the placement to ensure the Neck Restore aligns
with your neck in the most comfortable position. (Figure 2).
How to Assemble
• The Neck Restore may be used while lying down on a flat surface or
while attached to your Teeter Inversion Table.
• Use of the Neck Restore may impact the rotation of the table.
Set the Angle Tether to a moderate inversion angle and use a
spotter until you are able to find the correct balance settings
and are comfortable with the operation of the table.
• The Neck Restore works between intermediate to moderate
inversion. Full inversion (900) moves the body away from the device.
• With its rotating axel, you have the option to move your head and
rotate the Neck Restore to adjust positioning or to apply variable
pressure to help target trouble areas (Figure 2).
• Begin with short 1-2 minute sessions and increase only as you feel
comfortable. Discontinue use if you feel any discomfort, dizziness,
or numbness.
•
TIP:
Detach the rubber insert from the mount (Figure 3) and place in
the freezer for 15-20 minutes. Attach back onto the mount to deliver
a therapeutic cooling sensation.
•
TO CLEAN:
Remove the rubber insert from the mount. Clean with
warm water and gentle soap. Allow the insert to air-dry before
re-attaching to the mount.
The Teeter Neck Restore provides support of the upper neck/cervical spine for self-administered suboccipital release, a technique to
reduce tension in the supporting muscles. With its rotating base, you can easily position and apply variable pressure to naturally and
gently loosen tight, sore muscles in the neck. The Neck Restore can be used as a standalone self-massage tool or attached to any Teeter
Inversion Table for use while inverting.
