Backrack™History & Expertise

Page 3: Innovative technologyin spinalcareand painrelief

How istheBackrack™ different?Effective, safe and unique - developed by a specialist.Backrack™is constructed from high quality, ethically sourced wood, and consists of a number of lateral spindles, each featuringtwo nodules either side of a central channel.

Back pain may be caused by bone deformity directly linked to compression. This is when your spine becomes squashed orshortened from its natural length. Backrack™works directly on the cause of back pain by decompressing your spine. By treatingthe cause rather than just the symptoms, you can banish back pain – for good. It has a unique concept and application in backcare.

If we can decompress the spine, which the Backrack™ does, we can treat the causes, and hence the symptoms, of back pain.

How does theBackrack™ work?

Page 4: Innovative technologyin spinalcareand painrelief

Backrack™is very easy to use. You simply lie down on the device and do a series of exercises that concentrate on particular areas ofyour back and neck.

Your spine is physically suspended in the channel of the Backrack™and nodules push up under the joints of your back.This allowsyour spine to lengthen and decompress, reversing the effects of a range of back problems. The Backrack™ is based on orthopaedicmedical expertise and is entirely safe and effective. Backrack™ can be used at homewithout medical supervision.

Patients are instructed to lie on the rack, in a central position, with their knees bent:The Backrack™mirrors the natural curvature of the spine so that the back is fully supported in a neutral position.

The wooden nodules push up, on either side of the spine, lifting the individual vertebrae, causing them to pivot about the joints inthe back.

As a result the joints are decompressed, the spine lengthens, joint mobility and soft-tissue elasticity increases, reducing stiffness andback pain.

Additionally the pressure on the joints and the inter-vertebral discs is lowered, reducing the risk of spinal osteoarthritis andbulging or herniated discs.

Finally, the pressure on the spinal nerves is reduced, which alleviates symptoms such as acute local pain, sciatica, and pins andneedles.

This is very important: Backrack™is designed to remove unwanted stress on the spine while maintaining the beneficial pressure.

Backrack™treats the causes, and hence the symptoms,of back pain. The spine is decompressed, reversing the effects of gravity aswell as injury, bad posture and old age.

If you would like to know more about how Backrack™works, please read our advanced explanation. Full details for use of Backrack™are contained in our instruction manual.

The rack itself is constructed from high quality wood and isethically friendly. It consists of a number of lateral spindles, eachfeaturing two nodules.

When viewed together, the nodules are positioned on either side ofa central channel.

The spine is physically suspended in the channel of the Backrack™with the nodules pushing up under the joints of the back, allowingthe spine to lengthen. In effect, the spine is decompressed,reversing the effects of gravity, as well as injury, bad posture, andold age.

The Backrack™, therefore, treats the causes of back pain resulting inalleviation of symptomssuch as sti ffness and muscular pain.

The Backrack™is based on the principles of orthopaedic medicine sothe spine is decompressed in a safe and reliable manner and notsubjected to any sudden movements.

Backrack™can be used at home, without supervision.

Backrack™Science

In order to develop a fundamental understanding of the Backrack™ mechanism during thetreatment and prevention of back pain symptoms, a finite element analysis was performed. Thisnew and innovative approach is used in many scientific projects for specific applications. In this case itallowed to simulation of the displacement parameter affecting decompression of the facet joints ofthe spinal vertebrae along the whole length of the human spine - see Figure 1.

The simulation was carried out on a single spindle for three different parts of a human spine:thoracic, cervical and lumbar. Measurements were performed for a number of scenarios: a personof average weight laying in a standard position, and for situations when an increased localload is applied to different parts of various exercise positions of a person lying on the device.

A three-dimensional finite element structure of a single spindle composed of two pseudo-ballsand its analytical mesh is shown in Figure 2. The dimensions and shape agree with the patentedmodel. The modulus value of the material in consideration was specifically chosen, as well as theload distribution along the whole length of the human spine for the final element calculation. Thisallowed the actual displacement values along the spindle to be obtained as a result of the appliedload to specific points. This displacement is directly responsible for the mechanical movement ofthe facet joint leading to stress release associated with back pain problems.

The graphical presentation of the lumbar region in standard lying position is presented in the graphics below.

Graphical presentation of the lumbar region in standard positionThe linear graphs illustrate the symmetrical displacement in the direction of the applied load occurring alongthe spindle under certain loads. These vary in a systematic way, translating the load and therefore, theequivalent stress into the relevant part of the spine, causing pain relief. The initial standard position for thecervical, thoracic and lumbar regions of the spine is shown in Figure 3.As the load varies during specific exercises performed by a patient on the Backrack™, the displacement of theweight bearing fluctuates accordingly, increasing its function over the affected regions, as demonstrated inFigures 4, 5 and 6.

*The Backrack™ device simulation, shown above, reflects and reproduces actual situations related tomechanical back pain conditions.*The device has the potential to relieve back pain in a systematic manner, with the patient being intotal control of treatment duration. This is of paramount importance when treatment is performed athome, or under other unsupervised conditions.*The device is ideal for relaxing the spine and for the prevention of back pain.*The Backrack™ is simple and easy to use and affords relief from back pain.

Backrack™ - Testimonials

5 out of 5 starsI love thisBackrack™ !

5 out of 5 I followed the instructionsand did the exercisesasdirected and I feel better than ever now

5 out of 5 starsWow, the resultsare amazingand it feelsSO good!

“I love this Backrack™. It is an awesome addition to my wellness arsenal. I have used it as recommended on the box. It is a brilliant design by B.M.Luklinski of the Luklinski Spine Clinic in London. Uti lizing this Backrack™as advised helps to alleviate the pressure on the vertebrae of the spinefrom the cervical vertebrae to the sacral area which allows for better circulation and function. It is comfortable to use for 15 minutes, 3 times aweek, I can see great benefit. My cervical and lumbar area is feeling better already. This is a great investment for my spinal health which as far as Iam concerned, as a nurse, is a crucial part of our health since every organ, nerve systems and cell is innervated from the spine. I wish everyonecould have this in their homes to use. I hope a lot of people are able to benefit from the unique, brilliant design of the Backrack™. Very sturdyconstruction as well as easy to utilize!

“My husband and I have both have back problems. I have had them since I was a kid and was injured in gymnastics. I thought that maybe thiswould offer some relief from the pain, and ease my wallet from constant trips to the chiropractor. I have been using my Backrack™ for about 10days now. I will admit, it was a little rough getting started. I followed the instructions and did the exercises as directed and I feel better than evernow. As soon as you lie down on the apparatus, you can feel your spine realigning and things moving that haven’t moved in a long time. It tookme a little bit to be able to do the exercises with ease and no pain, but now I can do them with no problems. This back rack was worth everypenny”

“What an amazing contraption! I was not sure that the Backrack™ would work for me because I have arthritis and fibromyalgia along withdegenerative disk disease and several other issues. My neck and back hurt ALL THE TIME. The first thing that I noticed when I took it out of thebox was that the wood is absolutely gorgeous and very sturdy, this thing is built so well! The other thing I noticed right away is that the roundpieces that massage your spine down the centre and the rods that connect them to the sides are all one carved piece, wow! Other units that Ihave tried like this had separate pieces for those (the rod usually goes through the round piece to connect the two sides) and this could causepinching as well as create an “unsteady” feeling while using it which, is why I never purchased one. They usually fall apart pretty easily too but,not this one! As I said, this is beautifully and so well constructed, I am super impressed with the Backrack™. When I first tried the Backrack™, Ican’t lie, it was a little painful during use. BUT, the relief immediately after practising the suggested exercises outweighed the discomfort somuch that I use it 3-5 time per week now! I know I will continue using it for a very long time too because it has helped so much and it is built sowell that I know I will have it for a very long time. I am so glad to have a natural and healthy way to help my neck and back pain now, whilemaking my spine healthier with each use! The Backrack™ will help so many people that suffer from back and neck pain and I will be suggestingit to many friends that have similar issues as I do or even those that have healthy spines because, this will help them KEEP a healthy spine!”
