The hammock allows for deep stretching, strengthening and release. The “art of inversion” - being upside down and decompressing the spine to open the vertebral column, helps with circulation, assists with the elimination of toxins and impurities and offers ways to stretch that would be impossible on the floor. Enjoy the fun with your friends.
