An inversion table flips you upside down so gravity pulls on your whole spine at once.
It can feel good for a few minutes, but the pull is general, not aimed at the level causing your pain, and you cannot control how much force lands where.
An in-office decompression table works differently.
It applies a guided, adjustable pull set to a specific angle and level, gently lowering the pressure inside a disc, the cushion between your spine bones.
It works in slow cycles of pull and release, which helps the disc take in fluid and nutrients, and the setup follows an exam.
There is also a safety side that gets overlooked.
Hanging upside down raises the pressure in your head and eyes and can strain the heart, so it is not a good idea for people with high blood pressure, glaucoma, or certain heart conditions.
A home gadget cannot examine you, aim the stretch, or screen you for those risks, and that is the real difference.
