Has anyone ever heard of this and/or used it? Apparently many practitioners get a height increase usually because of the fact that it improves their posture and reduces spinal compression.

I'm looking to do all I can to boost height and posture prior to going under the knife with regards to lengthening limits. Much as I would love the maximum lengths possible I realise this won't be possible based on a variety of factors.

Yeah obviously I knew that re: it doesn't stretch the legs. But I mean it's about being realistic about the femoral and tibial lengthening also given my diabetes (which is very well controlled) but I also need to keep an eye on my kidney functions with regards to pain medication therefore might have to endure the pain with lower strength analgesia or potentially take ACE inhibitors I don't know for sure. I am aware of one surgeon who has operated on someone with kidney issues and has been successful so it is possible. It's just a shame with Covid I can't visit these clinics and ask the questions I need to ask.

Quote from: ghkid2021 on February 11, 2021, 07:27:37 AMWhat's your height and goal height? Is LL not enough for you? Once you do these mega stretch routines, you have to do it for the rest of your life if you want to keep the gains.

Goal height? As much as possible without looking stupid and/or causing harm. LL would certainly be enough but one can never have too much of a good thing unless it's fried chicken.

I'd take an extra inch or so from AT right now if I could. The more I can get with everything combined with LL the better.

But there's only so much height you can gain from LL not to mention the costs and in any case we lose height naturally as we age. Doing exercises and stretching for posture has benefits other than a small height increase in any case.
