    Invented By A Physio,
    To Perform Like A Physio


    BackHug founder Chongsu Lee, an engineer-turned-physical therapist, saw the limitations of traditional treatments during his 10+ years of experience. His desire for better back care led to the creation of BackHug, a robotic therapist targeting stiff joints to deliver consistent, effective relief.

    From 0 to 10, the pain level is now around 2 or 3, but before that, when I didn’t use the BackHug, the pain level is around 8 and 9. I can move around because the pain it’s just only moderate now compared before.

    I’ve noticed a real big difference since I’ve been able to do it every day, or every other day, as opposed to every week or every other week. I feel that my sleeping is better, my strength, my energy is better.

    The first time you use it, it’s great. The second time you use it, it’s great, and then you start to notice the benefits. It’s the funny things, after 10 days you, think…Oh, I'm putting on my shoes a bit easier, or I'm bending to pick things up a bit easier.

    I thought “I’m just going to relax on BackHug” and I actually fell asleep on it. I was there and I fell asleep, for 3 hours, and I think that was my body saying “you need to relax” and obviously I was completely relaxed
