(More customer reviews)Through the years I have had issues with my back. I am a surfer. I have had experiences where I do nothing more than bend to the side and all of a sudden that spasm feeling takes hold and I can barely stand up straight. It can take up to two weeks for the pain to go away and the muscles/bones to go back into place. I had a bad experience with a Chiropractor years ago and I was really afraid of them. After returning from a vacation last year which ended in the same back spasms, I finally decided to give the Chiropractor a chance to take away this pain. I was lucky enough to find one that was able to put the bones back into place. I was able to move properly and the pain was gone in one day.
A friend of mine who also happens to be a surfer/bicycle enthusiast and in his 50's, has worse back issues than me and he told me about the Saunders Hometrac lumbar unit. It sounded like just the thing for me as we may be moving to an area where it will be very difficult to get to a Chiropractor. I have tried it out several times when I feel that my back is getting a little sore and maybe starting to go out or just not quite right and IT IS GREAT! I had a hard time working in the yard and now I barely feel anything after bending over for long periods of time. Even surfing and light lifting no longer leave me with a sore back. This unit stretches the body in the lumbar area and pulls everything back into place.
I will provide the information I was given (use these at your own risk as I have : ) as there is no information in the instructions. I'm assuming it must come from your doctor even though these can be purchased without a prescription. I weight about 190 lbs. and am 5'11" tall. I was told never to pump the pressure up more than half your body weight. At 190 lbs. that would be 95 lbs. For me, I feel that is too high . Start out your first time at 20 lbs. pressure for 10 minutes, then 40 lbs. for 10 minutes. I'm good at 40lbs but 60 should be OK too. This should not be a painful process. The two units will start to pull apart gently easing the lumbar area and hopefully for you, putting your back at ease. You may be a bit sore for a little while after but by the next day I was back in perfect condition for me. Again, the above information is from my experience only. I'm sure your Dr. or Chiropractor can confirm the proper pressure for you if you feel necessary. Please start slowly and I hope you feel the relief I have. Good luck!
