How 'bout the one I use? Stand in a doorway, hold on if you like, raise up on your toes and drop gently back to the floor with your heels. Talk about cheap! Even I can afford it.

    If you do a search you'll find a ton of information, many
    articles, on both the benefits of rebounding, AND the dangers of
    rebounding on a mini tramp.  On a mini trampoline is a "great" way
    to damage your feet, ankles, and knees.  DON'T DO IT!!!  But there
    is no better excercise than rebounding on a good "rebounder" - the
    kind that usually cost at least 300 bucks and have the right kind
    of springs and material.  I'm not sure how the giant backyard ones
    measure in this equation - have no experience with them and
    haven't researched them.  Probably, almost certainly, better than
    the cheap minitramps.  But I'm sure there is a range of quality
    with them as well, some better absorbing and cushioning the stress
    of the landing than others.  Sara

    Marshall,
    Some time ago someone on this list gave information on a doctor
    who advises rebounding but NOT with a mini trampoline.  Do you or
    someone else have his name or the article?
    Thanks Mary
