The incident took place in Powerhouse Gym, Santa Maria, California, a popular local workout spot. The involved woman’s identity remains undisclosed. The unfortunate event took place when the woman tried using the inversion table. However, it went all the way back, more than it is supposed to, leaving the lady trapped upside down. An inversion table is specifically designed to provide spinal traction by relaxing the user, improving blood circulation, and alleviating back pain. 

“I’m stuck in this reverse, like, back decompression thing that like, I don’t know. I just can’t get anyone’s attention at the gym, at powerhouse gym in Maria. And I think the thing went like too far and I’m just stuck upside down and I cannot get myself upside right,” the woman said in the video when she called the police officials to ask for help. She continued by stating, “And I just can’t I can’t get back up. I’m trying to get my buddy’s attention but he’s in the other room lifting and this is this is so embarrassing.”
