See a photo of the Freedom Chair above and
get a brief description below.

The Freedom chair is designed to give the maximum ergonomic benefit to the sitter with a minimum number of manually-adjusted controls. Once the chair is fitted, no further adjustment is required. The idea is that movement, which is essential for a healthy body, shouldn’t be constricted by locking mechanisms and manual controls. In other words, sitting comfortably isn’t something you should have to think about.

You can try out this innovative, ergonomic
chair for yourself.

Why not try a Zero Gravity Recliner?

If you've ever had a doc say, your back will feel better if you lie on the floor and put your feet in a chair, I've got some good news for you.

You can't see TV very well in that floor position, but you can buy a very comfortable chair that accomplishes doc's orders at stores all over the country.

It's called a "zero gravity recliner" because it reclines to the same position as lying on the floor with feet in chair, only without the hassle or TV deprivation. Honestly, there are recliners that do not stress the back, in fact HELP THE BACK, for most people, and they're easy to find.

Why does this chair make a difference? Just as docs have been suggesting for years, the back is better if you get your feet above your heart because in addition to helping circulation, this position also helps the back.

When the knees do some of the work of supporting the body in a "zero gravity chair", there are few to no pressure points on the back. This is the same position the astronauts lift off in for space travel.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Perfect Chair, (pictured above article)
a zero-gravity recliner, is available at

RELAX THE BACK,
4526 Oak Lawn, Dallas 75219, for info. 214.521.5999
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your back feels better, sometimes very quickly, because you have eliminated the pressure on the point where you have been hurting.

This is not rocket science, it's logical and even better readily available.
More good news: you can buy either a manual or a motorized version, so it works for most everyone.

My personal experience is very positive. I had regular lower back pain and sometimes my back would simply "go out", and I'd be in bed a few days.

Now I spend about 20-30 minutes in the chair listening to the news, (who can watch it these days) in the full zero gravity recline position. After that I can come up in the chair to a good position for watching TV and still be doing a great thing for my back.

Zero gravity is virtually pressure-point free for your back and half-way up is still very supportive and healthy allowing for diminishing back pain.
Try it, you'll like it.

The following questions are answered
on this page of this new blog.

Other questions are in archives.

Please ask a question, if you like.

I have arthritis, which seems to get
worse each year. Someone told me
there are foods that can help ease
arthritic pain. Can you tell me if you
know of any and what they are?

While I know living in the present
is the smartest way to live, it is not
easy to do.
Sometimes I linger in my past, which
depresses me; and sometimes I think
about the future with more fear than
I know is realistic.
Tell me how to work harder at staying
in the present, the here and now where
I really want to be.

As someone who is new to sales,
I need someone to tell me how to
be a more successful closer because
I already see that is the path to the
big bucks in sales.

Tell me how to become more confident. I know my self-esteem
isn't the highest, but how do I improve my self-image and my
opinion of myself. How do I build self-confidence?

Back Pain Diminished While Driving

Sacroease lumbar support is the answer to diminished back pain, especially low back pain, as many have discovered during the 60+years life of the company. An old line company and one you can count on.

How does this amazingly simple support actually work? It helps relieve low back pain and discomfort by lifting the user up from a slumped posture (which clearly causes back pain) to an upright position that not only feels natural, but also is more healthy and ergonomic.

This product actually gives the support most vehicle seats do not and provides a firm, comfortable sitting position and proper support. Stress and strain on the lumbar spinal area is lessened, often eliminated.

Sacroease offers flexibility too by providing products that contain the visco-elastic material called memory foam, which gives extra cusioning and comfort. Or for those suffering cocyx or tailbone pain, there is a model with a cutout section offering just the right amount of support by providing an open space in the back. No cocyx pain.

Using Sacroease will make a world of difference, specially to someone who drives a lot, by eliminating slouching and chasing away the low back pain which accompanies it. You'll be amazed at how much more comfortable the commute is or better the driving long miles on the road.

Blog Critique #5

Aching Back Relaxed

Got some sore pains in the middle of your back that your just dying to get rid of? Dont know what to do or how to treat it? Just visit this blog and you will find out all the information you need to know from a 10 year profesional. Just sitting and reading some of the posts makes me want to keep up with this blog and try out some of the ways to relieve pain. Onto the template of the blog, I like how you have put you own mix into the sidebars and have even put in some google ads. It all looks pretty decent, except for the one small long and skinny Ad which with Firefox createst a horizontal scroll bar, which I'm not really a fan of. Mixing it up with Amazon and some other ads for other sites brings a cool look. Some of the alternating colors in the posts I'm also not really a fan of, but if that floats you boat than make sure to bring the paddle. Overall I like the site and its unique flavor and content.
A job well done.

BACK PAIN DIMINISHED WITH MASSAGE CHAIR

by: Caroline Colby

Available to the retail market beginning in the 1980's, massage chairs are finally becoming one of the most popular home therapy products on the market. These chairs were developed to provide the benefits of massage therapy to the home user on a regular basis.

Also, by being placed in one's home, it affords a great deal of convenience. Massage therapy has been used for centuries to treat pain, help with relaxation.
Massage is also credited with boosting the body's immune system through the stimulation of reticular cells. Like a traditional massage, the massage chair is designed to reduce tension, reduce headaches, relax muscles and alleviate pain. Massage chairs are thought to help sufferers of digestive problems, circulation problems, and chronic fatigue. Earlier models of massage chairs were not very effective.
But as technology developed, the mechanisms became more realistic and reliable. While a massage chair may not be able to simulate the total therapeutic benefits of a massage by hand, at the very least, it provides massage motions that are consistent. Some people even say that the electronic massage is in fact better as the motions never tire and they are delivered in a rhythmic and regular fashion. With the advent of improved technology, today's massage chairs can be customized and programmed to meet the user's individual needs.
Programs pinpointing problem areas and allowing choice of firmness are becoming standard, and the choice of mechanisms also varies widely. Some feature popular shiatsu style kneading action, while others employ vibration and rollers to achieve that "ooh, ahh" sensation.

With increased technology and rising consumer demand, the price of good quality massage chairs should continue to drop. This will result in a massage chair becoming more affordable to more families. In time to come, perhaps, the massage chair will no longer be considered a luxury item.

Back Pain Diminished with High-Tech Mattress

Not only will your back be better, but also the rest of your body and mind will be much improved with a visco-elastic mattress. The healthiest, most comfortable mattress is clearly one made of visco-elastic material not one with coil springs, air inside or latex.

There is lots of proof of this fact from reasearch done in hospitals, clinics and most significantly perhaps the exploding sales of these mattresses. Sales have been declining for some years of mattresses with coil springs, while air and latex have increased only by a small percentage. Not the large percentage gain of visco-elastic. There is good reason for that development.

Visco-elastic material, developed for the astronauts by NASA, conforms to the body and eliminates pressure points. So you sleep better, likely deeper, as you don't turn as often as on other mattresses. Some might say the most comfortable mattress for you is the one that feels the best, but there is more to it than that.

Sales of coil spring mattresses are declining and the sales of mattresses with visco-elastic inside are exploding. There are good reasons for that and it is clearly factual. Industry research has been released showing a dramatic increase in sales of visco-elastic mattresses.

One major brand is called Tempur-Pedic. Such mattresses mold to the body and thus eliminate pressure points that coil spring mattresses in effect create. When the body is contoured in a visco-elastic mattress and there are no pressure points, one tends to sleep better, more deeply because you don't toss and turn as much.

This amazing material is almost indestructible and so manufacturers of these mattresses can offer a 20-year limited warranty, whereas most other mattress manufacturers offer only 10. True, visco-elastic mattresses may cost a bit more, but they last longer. It is rare for them to develop sagging or body impressions.

Typically, after use the mattress comes back to its original shape and this is why some refer to the material as "memory foam."

Do yourself a big favor and look into the mattresses proven to give you and your back the best night's sleep possible. These mattresses are available in stores all around the U.S. and many stores in other countries, as well.

Back Pain

by: Lucy Nicholas

Back pain is one thing most likely to elicit a twinge of sympathy from
the hardest of hearts. It is estimated that every person in the world
will suffer from it in his/her lifetime - mild to serious, chronic or
temporary.

You could get an attack at any point along the spine, especially the
lower back area which takes on the maximum weight and stress. Most
common causes: strain or bruising of muscles; sprain or injury to
ligaments; and spasms when the injured muscle knots up as part of the
body's attempt to immobilize it to prevent further injury. Other causes
include osteoporosis, arthritis, a slipped disc, or even excessive gas,
besides more serious causes like tumors, diabetes or kidney
malfunctions that emerge in a doctor's clinic.

Blame it on your Lifestyle

An important factor and one that is entirely in you hands, is
lifestyle. For instance, improper postures while sitting and sleeping,
and carelessness during walking, stretching or playing, especially when
you are overweight, are few common causes. Grand illusions of being a
Hercules incarnate and lifting heavy weights or improperly hefting them
around are other frequent errors.

Bad posture is the biggest culprit. Desk jobs mean sitting for hours
before computers where we unconsciously slump into odd positions. Or
twist our backs frequently while trying to reach for something behind
or beside us, or stretch forward too far; too fast. We also
unconsciously slip into awkward positions while reading or watching TV
sprawled on the bed or sofa.

Sit up

Chairs with gaps at the lower back level are deadly - avoid them. And
if you think you are invulnerable because you have that perfectly
'ergonomically' designed chair; know this - most people unconsciously
lean forward in such a way that their lower back moves away from the
chair base and thus remains unsupported.

Get up and Walk around

Sitting anywhere, anyhow, for long periods means that dangerous
pressure points develop along the back. The load on you back is the
highest when you are sitting, less while standing and least when you
are sleeping.

The golden rule is to get up and walk around every 15-20 minutes. When
on a long drive, get out of the car, walk around, stretch you limbs
after every two hours. While driving, the back of the car seat should
not recline beyond 30 degrees and ideally the seat bottom should be
tilted up slightly in front.

It's not a high

Avoid regular use of high heels - they hamper good posture, ruin you
body's alignment and hurt the back, feet and neck. Our feet are
designed to bear the entire weight of the body evenly across their
surface. However, the feet and legs are placed in and unnatural
position when you wear heels. Most of the pressure is transferred to
the front of the foot.

Stressed Out

The modern-day stress epidemic is another factor since back pain can
be psychosomatic. Stress/emotional problems both cause back pain and
aggravate any existing pain. Yoga and meditation sessions are effective
in such cases.

Weak stomach muscles heighten back strain and cause you pelvis to
twist abnormally. Regular and proper exercise help tremendously since
it keeps joints mobile, muscles conditioned and, more importantly,
raises your pain threshold.

Don't over Exercise

Doctors receive many back-pain patients who are victims of
improperly-trained gym instructors or half-baked yoga teachers.
Suddenly launching into heavy, unaccustomed activity is a sure recipe
for disaster.

YOU CAN GET PRESSURE OFF YOUR SPINE

It's really amazing if you've never had the experience, but you can instantly
get all the pressure off your spine.

How? One fast way is an inversion table. Yes, you can safely hang upside
down and decompress your spine immediately.

By allowing body weight to decompress the spine on an inversion table, you
will be doing what some call inversion therapy. Instantly, pressure is relieved
on disc, ligaments and nerve roots.

You can relieve the pressure on an inversion table and feel less discomfort
and pain from muscle stiffness, shoulder tension, and general back pain.

Inversion table are available to test drive and buy in many stores throughout
the U.S. and in some other countries as well. If you've never tried this therapy,
you may find it gives you fast relief and considerable comfort.

Using the table allows you to counteract the forces of gravity that pressure the
spine during so many daily activities such as picking things up, sitting at a computer
keyboard for hours, standing, or sitting in a vehicle.

You should find relief and comfort, as well as improved circulation and increased
flexibility. Try this table and you'll very likely like it a lot.

Fun in Bed without Porn or Passion
---and Reduce Back Pain Too

Amazing results can be achieved with the luxury and ease of an adustable bed. You can have the fun of sleeping better and waking more rested. Why do you sleep better?

Because the bed moves and massages with the touch of a remote, you can have the most ergonomic and healthy positions to sleep in a moment. Most think massage is fun, as well as relaxing, soothing.

Simply by raising the feet using the remote, you take pressure off the back and usually relieve some pain and stress.

Some people need to sleep with their heads elevated because of a variety of problems including acid reflux. This position is easy to accomplish with an adjustable bed.

Sitting up in bed to watch TV or to read is easier with an adjustable bed, as you can change your position with a click on the remote. It's just that easy.

Why not have your significant other serve you breakfast in bed or soup when you're sick? It's all much easier with a bed that moves with just a touch of a remote.

Try it out and you'll love the luxury, and very likely your back will also be better. Now doesn't that sound like fun, and you'll be feeling like having even more fun---maybe walking along a beautiful beach or by side of one of the breathtaking rivers pictured in some of the photos of this blog.

Adjustable beds are available at back stores all over the U.S. and likely in other countries as well.

Getting Rid of a Pain in the Neck

There are many neck problems that require medical or chiropractic treatment, but some are much simpler to cure. Did you know a good pillow with a contoured cervical roll has helped, even cured, many people?

Why does this make a difference in how you sleep and how does it improve your neck, shoulders, and upper back? A pillow with a cervical roll helps to straighten the spine between the head and the body. You may be sleeping in a way that actually makes your neck hurt.

This advanced pillow is not inexpensive, but it lasts longer than most; and it actually promotes deeper sleep in many people. It also may be the cure for the pain in your neck.

Such a pillow must be of a good quality visco-elastic material to be truly therapeutic. You should visit stores that carry such pillows and ask for help in choosing a pillow that fits your body. You don't want a pillow that is either too thick or too thin under your neck when you sleep. That could make your problem worse.

But, the right size and quality pillow can make a big difference. I know because I've slept on one for many years. Not only do you tend to wake without neck and shoulder problems, but also you seem to sleep more deeply, wake better rested and with more energy.

Find a store soon that specializes in quality and contoured pillows with a cervical roll built into it. You'll be so happy you took this simple step to sleeping and feeling better.

BACK PAIN DIMINISHED WITH MASSAGE CHAIR

by: Caroline Colby

Available to the retail market beginning in the 1980's, massage chairs are finally becoming one of the most popular home therapy products on the market. These chairs were developed to provide the benefits of massage therapy to the home user on a regular basis. Also, by being placed in one's home, it affords a great deal of convenience.

Massage therapy has been used for centuries to treat pain, help with relaxation. Massage is also credited with boosting the body's immune system through the stimulation of reticular cells. Like a traditional massage, the massage chair is designed to reduce tension, reduce headaches, relax muscles and alleviate pain. Massage chairs are thought to help sufferers of digestive problems, circulation problems, and chronic fatigue.

Earlier models of massage chairs were not very effective. But as technology developed, the mechanisms became more realistic and reliable. While a massage chair may not be able to simulate the total therapeutic benefits of a massage by hand, at the very least, it provides massage motions that are consistent. Some people even say that the electronic massage is in fact better as the motions never tire and they are delivered in a rhythmic and regular fashion.

With the advent of improved technology, today's massage chairs can be customized and programmed to meet the user's individual needs.

With increased technology and rising consumer demand, the price of good quality massage chairs should continue to drop. This will result in a massage chair becoming more affordable to more families. In time to come, perhaps, the massage chair will no longer be considered a luxury item.

Programs pinpointing problem areas and allowing choice of firmness are becoming standard, and the choice of mechanisms also varies widely. Some feature popular shiatsu style kneading action, while others employ vibration and rollers to achieve that "ooh, ahh" sensation.

With increased technology and rising consumer demand, the price of good quality massage chairs should continue to drop. This will result in a massage chair becoming more affordable to more families. In time to come, perhaps, the massage chair will no longer be considered a luxury item.

Where Do You Buy these Great Products?

Since some have been asking the above question,
I want to introduce some of the stores where these
great products: zero-gravity recliners, massage
chairs, ergonomic office chairs and Tempur-Pedic
mattresses and pillows.

One of the most innovative stores is called "Back
Be Nimble."

The Beginning:

Video Tour

After 10 years as a successful practicing chiropractor, Dr. Brad Lustick was severely injured in an automobile accident. His injuries resulted in an inability to continue active practice - but strengthened his commitment to help others deal with and overcome chronic back and other body pain.

So, in 1994, Brad, in partnership with his wife, Rose, opened Back Be Nimble to share knowledge of the back and body with the public by selling products for self-care. Brad, Rose and the entire Back Be Nimble staff enjoy helping people by providing them with the specific items needed to improve their comfort.

The Mission:

At Back Be Nimble,

We believe that help for back pain sufferers is real and available.
We believe your participation is vital in your quest for relief.
It is our contention that, other than the obvious acute phase of an injury, most of us suffer painful conditions due to persistent stress or improper practice of our daily routines. With 24 hours in each day, we must address the way we sleep, sit, work and play.
Our goal is to increase awareness of proper lifestyle execution and to review, test, select and provide products that we believe may play an important role in the resolution of painful conditions.

The Clients:

Back Be Nimble's clients include many cherished individuals as well as such high profile organizations as Intel, HP, IBM, Charles Draper Labs, N.A.S.A., Computer City, University of California, University of Washington and many others.

The Rest:

As the pioneer of e-commerce for products of this sort, it is our intention to continue to be your most vital link, offering over 1000 doctor-tested products for shipment worldwide.

Everyone at Back Be Nimble strives to provide the most comprehensive online catalog of ergonomic and therapeutic products available. In many cases we offer more information and more comprehensive online configuration and ordering capabilities than the manufacturers themselves.

While our goal is to help others, it's always nice to know that our hard work is appreciated - so, here are just a few awards, recognitions and kudos of which we are most proud.

Back Be Nimble, located at

B
2405 Rice Boulevard, Houston, TX 77005

other back blog for information
on how exercises and also
acupuncture can help relieve
back, neck and shoulder pain.

I hope the articles and ads in both
blogs help you to get rid of aches
and pains and feel better and that
you will check out both blogs often.

WHY YOUR BACK IS BETTER WITH VISCO ELASTIC

Lower back pain and upper back pain or discomfort can be diminished or exacerbated depending on
what kind of mattress you're sleeping on.
Your back is better, and this has been proven in hospital tests, when you sleep on a mattress made
from visco elastic material rather than old-fashioned coil spring mattresses. Visco elatic material is
sometimes referred to as memory foam.

* Coil spring mattresses are the reason you toss and turn so much at night. Pressure points are actually
* created by coil spring mattresses, and such points inhibit circulation and cause discomfort in your back,
* especially those areas where you have either lower back pain or upper back pain. Sometimes, people
* are not even aware of these pressure points, but they know they toss and turn a lot and then awaken
* without really feeling rested.

Visco elastic material conforms to the body and eliminates these pressure points. Mattresses made of
coli springs or air pockets just don't measure up or provide the same comfort. When you stretch out on
a visco elastic mattress, you are immediately aware of support and a feeling of ease and comfort under
your lumbar region, the upper back and shoulders, the hips and the legs.

* Sometimes people say, it's almost like floating. Visco elastic mattresses actually offer firmness where you
* need it and softness where you want it to feel more comforting. They conform to your body because of the
* pressure and body heat sensing visco elastic material whether you sleep on your back or your side.

You should sleep more deeply and waken better rested and with more energy if your sleep with pressure
points eliminated or substantially lessened. You'll love the feeling of waking feeling so much better and your
back will be better for that kind of rest, because it has been able to heal somewhat from daily stresses and
discomfort that we all put on our backs.

Visco elastic mattresses are available in stores all over the U.S. and in many places abroad. Make your back
be better and go try stretching out on a visco elastic mattress. You'll be so happy you did.
