June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month. This year we’re raising awareness that bowel cancer can strike at any age.

The incidence of bowel cancer in younger adults is rising in New Zealand. 10% of bowel cancer patients are under 50 – that’s more than 300 a year. Each year about 3,000 New Zealanders are diagnosed with the disease and more than 1,200 will die. That’s as many as breast and prostate cancer combined.

Sunday 10th of June

Most people who have had long term Back or Neck issues are really skeptical about finding something that actually works. This is the reason we have been travelling the country letting people try our inversion table for themselves.

Over the last 11 years we have sold over 10,000 Teeters, this means most people have actually heard of them or know someone who’s got one. The way the Teeter table usually works is you will get a certain amount of serious relief, this relief usually lasts for a short period of time and gets longer with more use.

No matter how skeptical you are the results prove themselves. Treatments are free and only take around ten minutes.
