My hips are all jacked up again, which makes my legs feel a lot like toes or fingers that have been jammed, except, well, bigger and crankier. I need a tall, strong person to lift me up by my ankles and shake me. I totally think that would fix a lot.

Gravity boots...

Or save pennies, for $150? there is an inversion table at Costco. My only complaint? You're only flipped back about 140 degrees, not fully hanging.

Actually, lay across a bed with your arms & chin hanging over and relax below the chest. Then have a significant other pull your legs up & back. A variation of this was seen on Down & out in Beverly Hills. I used to pull Mik's feet to get her ankles unlocked when she was prego.

Granted, I have not had bad hips... back, knees, ankles, elbow, neck... all those go out on me, but my hips have done relatively well for some reason.

If you're going to go inversion table, I'd suggest the Hang Ups 5000 (which can lock at full inversion) and pay to get the conversion bar and gravity boots to use the table for full inversion (the clamps on those tables cut off the circulation in the tops of your feet if you fully invert).

It works great. Worth every fucking penny I spent on it.
