we specialize in development of back pain relief products for chronic lower back pain. Backlife is the first consumer device to use CPM (Continuous Passive Movement) an approach developed and approved by back pain specialists, to treat back pain. Endorsed by leading orthopedic physicians and back care experts, Backlife combines the basic of the most effective physiotherapies for relieving pain in the lower back, at the comfort of your home. How does the device work? The user lies on his back, totally relaxed, with knees bent over the device in a position known as the ‘Semi Fowler’ position. The device moves the lower back vertebrae in a regular circular motion (a motion known as ‘Anterior-Posterior Pelvic Tilt’). This forward movement, Posterior Pelvic Tilt, performs a circular motion which levels the hip arch, gently releases the vertebrae, increases metabolism in that area, enhances blood flow and enables the passage of oxygen and nutritional material while speeding up disposal of waste products.
This motion, first described by Dr Maitland, the father of modern physiotherapy, helps restore mobility to the patient and to their damaged tissues. At the same time, the repeated motion soothes pain sensors and facilitates the release of endorphins, which assist in providing relief.
A Backlife session lasts 12 minutes. After 12 minutes, Backlife automatically switches off. Is it harmful to use Backlife if you dont have back pain?
