FAR Infrared Back Support

We're really excited to announce the addition of a new product.

The FAR Infrared Back Support helps to reduce back pain through either heating or cooling the area of your back that is causing you discomfort. The heat increases blood supply to your back and the cooling action dulls the pain.

Another key feature of this product is that it's a belt too, so provides good support and helps with your posture.

It fits a variety of waist sizes going up to a maximum of 46".

We believe this product offers a very exciting alternative to the more traditional back care products on the market.

Trouble in the car

One of our latest customers complained about the back pain he was enduring due to sitting in his new car.

Unfortunately this is quite common for people, especially in the sportier models.

We had a long chat with him and decided that he should take a look at the section of our website 'in the car'.

This area of the site has lots of products that can help with back pain in the car, ranging from the Obusforme back rests which come in a variety of sizes and the Backfriend which has both a seat and backrest, to the more expensice Therapeutica products.

The customer bought an item and is giving it a try right now, If it doesn't help then we'll except the return and try another product.

Back Pain Relief – On the Move.

Who is affected?

Travelling and especially driving plays a big part in people’s lives these days. More and more people are driving as cars become more affordable. This has inevitably resulted in a huge amount of traffic on the roads, which unfortunately results in traffic jams and long periods sitting in the car. The journeys which should take us just 20 minutes can often be double that – especially if we live in large towns or cities

Why are they affected?

Unfortunately this is not good news for our backs, which were never designed to spend such a long time in chairs that cause backs to bend in an unnatural way. Over time the pressure that is caused by sitting in this bent over position begins to become a problem for our backs and the result is back pain.

What can be done about this?

Thankfully there are some answers out there to help with such problems. A highly recommended product is called the Back Friend, which can be placed into a car seat (or just about any other seat). The idea behind the seat is very simple and that is one of the reasons why it is so effective.

How does it work?

When a Back Friend is positioned in a seat it enables the driver or passenger to travel in a comfortable and more upright position. This takes away the pressure from the back that was causing the pain and allows that back to support its self, in the correct way.

There are no gadgets that vibrate or heat up or flashy control devices that can adjust the seat, and so very little can go wrong with it. I believe that is why is has become such a popular product with so many people.
