How Do You Hang Off The Bed To Decompress Your Spine?

To safely decompress your spine at home, lie flat on your stomach near the edge of the bed and let your upper body hang off gently, supporting your weight with your hands or elbows. Stay relaxed and breathe deeply. This uses light gravity to create a small amount of traction. However, don’t overdo it, start with short sessions and stop if you feel pain. For deeper decompression, professional traction or inversion therapy under guidance is much safer and more effective.
