Importance of Spinal Health
Why is spinal health so important?
It may not surprise you to learn that the spine is, quite literally, the backbone of the body. It’s what allows us to perform every movement, from brushing our teeth in the morning to climbing into bed at night. What’s more, every one of our cells is controlled by our central nervous system and without the support of the spine, this is unable to function properly.
According to the National Institutes of Health, every one of us has an 80% chance of experiencing some form of back pain in our life. Spinal problems can be caused or worsened by a number of factors:
– Injury
– Poor biomechanics
– Muscle weakness
– Over activity
– Bad posture
– Standing for long hours
– Sedentary lifestyle
– Impeded mobility
If any of the above apply to you, it’s vital to stay informed and ensure you’re giving your spine all the support it needs.

Support
When our body rests, it’s the spine’s opportunity to rejuvenate and relax. To ensure it gets the most out of this time, make sure you’re using furniture which allows the body to rest in the most comfortable and aligned way possible.
Exercise
The core muscles located in our abdomen and lower back are designed to support the spine and take pressure off the back. Keeping these muscles active in a safe, regular and responsible way can be a great way of maintaining your spine’s health.
Massage
There are numerous health benefits to regular massage therapy, including increased blood flow, enhanced relaxation and easing tight muscles throughout the body. It can be an invaluable way of both treating and preventing spinal issues.
Our products combine the most significant advancements in acupressure massage, relaxation and ergonomic design to provide users with everything they need for long term spinal health.
