Medicine is always evolving and so is the technology linked to its effectiveness. Modern-day chiropractors use technology solutions to further solidify the effectiveness of their practices. More often than not, people suffer from posture issues. Often this is due to long hours in the work chair and then bad postures at the dinner table or even while sleeping. Because of this, we rarely make a conscious effort to fix our poor posture since we’re all so busy. Only when it becomes a painful issue do we care to visit a doctor. Then, many tend to opt for pain-reducing medication to manage their discomfort.
Prevent stooped posture and avoid humped back as you age.
Posture Pump® is our go-to solution for all posture problems. It effectively decompresses the shape of your spine and hydrates the joints and discs in your neck and back. This all-in-one solution for posture issues is completely non-invasive and drug-free. The best neurosurgeons in the world regularly recommend it as an effective treatment for posture problems.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
How does a Posture Pump® work?
With the easy-to-use hand pumps and specifically angled air cells, the expansion and contraction of these air cells create alternating hydration of the spinal discs and joints. Postural restoration occurs when the air cells are left inflated for longer time periods (around 15 to 20 minutes).
How long will it take before the results are seen?
Everybody is different. Some people might feel relief and a reduction in symptoms immediately after use. For others, it may take longer to experience gradual relief – a lot of it depends on their symptoms.
Is there any research on Posture Pump®?
Yes, there is! Two IRB-Approved MRI studies to research the effectiveness of the Posture Pump® were conducted by Dr. C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D., a neurosurgeon, researcher, and author. These studies showed that the Posture Pump® effectively decompressed, reshaped, and lubricated the discs and joints of the spine. It also showed disc bulge resorption.
One study also compared it to a commonly used form of traction. It improved the cervical (neck) curve in 72% of the study subjects as opposed to the 8% who used the traction device. Posture Pump® also increased the average disc height in the subjects TWICE as much as those using the standard traction device. Dr. Shealy stated, “considering the cost, effectiveness, and ease of therapy, use of a Posture Pump® is now the first choice of treatment for any sort of cervicogenic pain or headache.”
How often should I use Posture Pump®?
The Posture Pump® can be used at least 2-3 times per week, and if needed, daily use is also possible. Some people find the most effective use of a Posture Pump® at night to help them relax and sleep better. Others find its morning use to be rejuvenating as it increases the range of motion and relieves stiffness for the whole day. People who work out or play sports greatly benefit from the use of a Posture Pump® for a few minutes before and after their workout. It helps in relieving painful neck and back stiffness endured after their workout.
