Inversion table and blood pressure monitor

• C+30+80

diagram for demo

Blood pressure monitor and inversion table. Two blood pressure measurements are taken. One with the arm above your head and heart and the other while inverted. By treating the body as a purely physical system, we can use the following equation of pressure. Realistically, the change in pressure will be less, as the body has many coping mechanisms to handle such variations. Obviously everyone will have a different change in height, so adjust accordingly.
