Everlasting Comfort Lumbar Support Board Back Stretcher for Lower Pain Relief - Adjustable Spine Decompression with 88 Acupressure Nodes - Back Cracking Device with Chair Strap for Posture Correction

What a relief it is! This small and portable device really provided some relieve for my mid-back pain. After a long day on my feet, lying back on this device stretches out my back and relieves built up stress.

As expected. Works well and easy to use.

Update: I was about to move from 3 to 4 stars, then I remembered I paid about double to get one of these with the "made-for-it" memory foam pads attached. That being said, use it without the padding... much more useful tool. Everything mentioned below is accurate and pertinent still. Its more likely to give out and do nothing useful at the first notch... Learning through experience. I still assume its great for average sized people. If you're tall/big or (I assume short/small), find something that isn't one size fits all. Whenever I attempt to really stretch out my lower back, it just caves in on itself Original: As the title says, its a one-size fits all made for the average person. From that perspective, it fills its role. That being said, the main foam padding was compressed and basically useless on arrival - hopefully readjusts to have a purpose over time out of the shipping packaging. Further, for me personally, it just isn't quite big enough. Having only one size I'm not sure how they could better serve a global population - outside having multiple sizes. That being said there are positions that are still great, and its a valuable tool, but one, I'm able to make it intentional for one portion of my back, and two, if I make it lower back, I can feel the material giving/shifting under my weight, rather than being something that holds firm to force my back to stretch. All that being said, I see the value enough to keep it, and this review is coming from an athletically built 6'2" 230lb man - I doubt my complaints will translate to the broader population. Just ya know, if you're a bigger guy like me, there are probably solutions made for us that are far better suited than this. Maybe not too... The memory foam pad is a great touch, but seems to completely eliminate the value of the "acupuncture points" on the hard plastic portion of the device.

Many of us spend much of our day with our back in flexion or with the upper body leaning forward, such as when we slouch in a chair. This allows the abdominal muscles to relax, contract and become shorter over time pulling the upper body forward and increasing the stress on the lower back muscles to compensate. The purpose of this product is to put the back into extension, or increase the arch in the lower back. This creates a very significant stretch in the muscles around the core and is not very pleasant. However, the benefits may be seen later when you notice movements that used to hurt, don't hurt as bad or at all. I've been using this about 2 weeks, and pain that I used to feel in my left leg when bending forward is gone and my low back pain after long periods of standing is noticeably less. I try to use it at least once each day for one or two, two minute sessions. The arch setting is adjustable to 3 different positions. I suggest the lowest position to begin with. This puts the least stress on the back and allows the body to become familiar with the product. When this becomes easy then move to the middle position. It's not easy to do, but you will get the most benefit if you can relax and allow the shoulders and tailbone to sink toward the floor. As for sturdiness, the arch is made of a flexible plastic. I can feel it give when I first lay on it, but it seems to regain its shape when I get correctly positioned. I weigh only 170 pounds. I can't say how it would perform for someone who weighs 220. For comfort there is generous padding on the arch. The center has a cushioning strip of rubber for the backbone. There is also an additional cushion which can be placed on the arch. Both can be used or removed as desired. Expect this product to cause discomfort during use due to the stretching of the core muscles. This should quickly subside after you finish your session and the back returns to a normal position. If the pain continues for more than a few minutes, I would suggest discontinuing use of the product. It is great to stretch tight muscles, but may be counterproductive if there is some structural issue with the spine. If you have any doubts talk with a medical professional.

It didn’t help with sciatica pain. Thought I had 30 days to try it.. but the window to return just expired yesterday 😣

Nicely made and certainly stretched my back.

I've been seeing a chiropractor for years for several problems, and my back always hurts in one way or another, especially the base of my lower back. I've tried all kinds of stretchers, exercisers, and physical therapy over the years, and almost nothing I bought helps. But this Everlasting Comfort® Back Stretcher really does help relieve the pain! It takes 30 secs to put together and is super easy to use, the directions are great. The only negative is that when you lay down it feels like it's going to break. That give could totally be just how it works, but it makes me tense up for a bit when the point is to relax on it. Otherwise, I'm really impressed with this thing!

I have suffered from sciatic pain for the past few years. I've had the injections, which worked, but wear off. I tried this and I instantly felt relief and have had 6+ hours sleep a night since. Cheaper than any medication I've been given so far and it is helping me. Best thing I have ever purchased in years.

Der Back Stretcher ist sowohl leicht zu benutzen, als auch trotzdem vielfältig. Die Höhenstufen machen einen enormen Unterschied aus. Die höchste Stufe ist für mich zum Beispiel noch nicht zu erreichen. Der Effekt der Akupressurpunkte ist eher zu vernachlässigen, aber das dehnen des gesamten Rückens ist mehr als angenehm nach einem Tag, an dem man sich nicht besonders viel bewegen konnte

Även lägsta nivån känns hög för min rygg, men det kan ju vara jag som är känslig.

Excelente. Já o uso há várias semanas e é exatamente o que precisava para esticar as costas. Bastante resistente. Aconselho.
