Lower back problems can prevent you from walking, running, jumping, sitting, standing, bending, lifting or doing anything physical. All can become a laborious chore.
So how can it also be with lower stress than walking?
When in the standing position all of your upper body weight is supported by your lumbar region of the spine and corresponding muscles. This applied weight works to our disadvantage when we exercise or walk. The muscles and discs are supporting the weight and trying to flex at the same time.
We would definitely want to apply the least amount of stress when we are exercising as the less stress you put on your back the faster you will recuperate.
The BackPro can provide you with this relief in the easiest way possible.
When lying on the BackPro, your weight is fully supported by the table construction. The coefficient of friction between the sliding and fixed parts of the table is .25. This means it only takes 25% of the force to move a weight horizontally as compared to lifting it. Any table motion would impart only 25 pounds of force per 100 pounds of upper body weight with an opposite resistance to the force applied.
This resistance would be within the lower spine and would impact the discs and pelvis. With the BackPro, you will find less strain on the lumbar spine than would be experienced when standing or walking.
While physical activity is necessary for a healthy lifestyle, the BackPro will create a relaxing, stress free environment for recuperation and will return you to your active lifestyle once again. Recovering from an injury or chronic, nagging back problems doesn't have to be unpleasant by any means.
