Customer Reviews of Spine-Worx Back Realignment Device
Customer Review: Better than a chiropractor!
Summary: 5 Stars
After going to a chiropractor for well over a year with a chronic back problem, with the most heinous side effect of extreme neck stiffness, I was willing to give either an inversion chair or this product a chance so I could potentially avoid re-upping with the chiropractor. Essentially with the chiropractor's five to ten minutes of expensive weekly adjustments (back, neck/head), I was at best maintaining my results with the occasional setback. In other words, I was not making any forward progress, merely fixing what was still getting knocked out of alignment on occasion. I also had a bad sciatic nerve in my right leg that was exacerbated by long daily drives in my car (and driving the one day after work to the out-of-the-way chiropractor didn't help). The chiropractor's work was unable to provide any relief for that and he suggested (on my coaxing) that a lumbar support might help (prior to that he was suggesting pulling my seat as close as possible to the steering wheel, which rarely worked).
Anyway, long story short, with the price of inversion chairs, I was willing to give this low cost Spine-Worx device a try based on some of the comments on here. When I took it out of the box and laid on it the very first time, it was rather uncomfortable, but sure enough, after 15 minutes, I felt really good. Everything truly did seem to get put back into place where it was supposed to spine/vertebrae-wise. Again, I hadn't felt that good in years.
Initially, I was using it almost every day and after most every bodybuilding workout. More recently, I've come to the conclusion that it's best to use the device only when you suspect a problem might be creeping up or you put lots of pressure from the top-down on your back (such as squatting with a barbell or neck-wise when you're working shoulders). It's not necessarily the greatest for neck stiffness, as I had a bad problem with that once even when using this, but I believe I have resolved that too for the most part, mostly by making a slight adjustment to my placement on the Spine-Worx. Otherwise, I've had no real problems whatsoever, and in fact as a nice bonus, my sciatic leg rarely acts up in the car (certainly not during my typical 1 hour+ one way work trip, only during a one way 4 hour trip in a snowstorm). It has truly worked wonders. I may mate this with an inversion chair at some point, but it really is fine as-is. I highly recommend it, especially for the price.
What I didn't like, however, was the lack of instructional material. I even went to the manufacturer's Website and there really is little guidance in the proper use of the device. That's something that really needs to be addressed. I realize that having the "lower back" indicator on the device should tell you all you need to know about the ends where your lower back and conversely your head should go (the latter of which dangles off a bit if you don't put a pillow under your noggin), but some educational material about placement and other options would be appreciated. Also, be careful in getting up. I've found you can sometimes fatigue your back by laying on the device and it helps to have a partner pull you straight up off the device rather than trying to roll off to one side or the other, which runs the risk of knocking something out of alignment again. Obviously laying on the device at times can be more intense than at other times, all depending on the condition of your back at that moment. Just be aware of those things and I think you'll be quite happy with the device. Good luck!
Description of Spine-Worx Back Realignment Device
Designed by a chiropractor, this natural back support system uses your body's own weight to apply controlled pressure to the spinal vertebrae. As you lie on Spine-Worx, your spine is pressed firmly against the length of its two unique padded and contoured rails, injection-molded to fit the natural shape of the mid- and lower back. The vertebrae in the spine are gradually and gently encouraged to realign into their natural positions, which helps to relieve backpain and improve overall mobility.Massage & Relaxation
