Except in very rare cases, full adult height is reached by age 18-20, and no prudent method has been found to increase it. ("Inversion therapy", for example, might temporarily increase vertebral spacing, but normal physical activity would quickly negate this.)
The main region for human growth in height is the "epiphyses", the ends of the (arm and) leg bones. By one's late teens, these areas become "closed" (all calcium and no cartilage) and no further increase in bone length occurs.
