Back pain can–and likely will–impact everyone at some point. I, a fairly active 28 year-old, experienced back pain for the first time at the end of last year.
I never really expected to get back pain (despite working in marketing for a company dedicated to providing better back care treatment at home). I’ve read books and research papers to help do my job well, and everything I learned told me that I would get back pain, especially as the body starts to change in and around your thirties.
Still, I hadn’t had back pain before, and felt it unlikely that it would come along in any meaningful way anytime soon...but it did, and even a month later it is affecting my day-to-day life.
It’s clear that back care is an area of healthcare that requires innovation:

BackHug’s been great for less pain and less spasms. Just incredible. My medications have reduced, too. So, when I come off it, I feel energised. I feel much looser, much much looser. I have hardly any spasms at all June Rodger |

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, and you start to notice that. And it’s these little things…these are things that people pick up on: the natural things that are happening easier. The cost, the time of going to see a professional is out of peoples hands, so to have [BackHug] in the house is fantastic. Andrew Johnson |

I used to have a massage every month, I used to go to the acupuncture every month, BackHug more than covers that. To have something like the BackHug, which is so effective in helping reduce your muscle tension in the comfort of your own home, available to you 24/7, £99 is a small price to pay. Jessica Colson |

Once you’ve got the BackHug you can have at any time you want, any time of the day. You pay for it and you’ve got it, whereas if I was going out to a physio I would have to get transport there and transport back and things like that, and it would be expensive, you know, for half an hour. I used to go every week, probably about just over a year ago, and it was costing a fortune, you know, and it was half as good as this. John Vickers |
