Back Joy Core - Does It Really Work?

Unlike other devices that you stick behind your back and only give you temporary support, the Back Joy changes the way you sit. It actually forces you to sit up straight which will actually strengthen your core muscles and that's why they call it the Back Joy "Core". So not only can it help improve your posture, but the improved strength you'll have in your core will help prevent future flare-ups.

So How Does Back Joy Core Work?

1. Back Joy Core "Tilts" To Correct Your Sitting Posture.

   

Back Joy Core gently tilts your pelvis forward to induce a neutral position for your spine. Aligning the sacral region corrects the dysfunctional mechanics caused by sitting. The strain and pressure of supporting your body weight is moved away from the spine's muscles and ligaments and placed on proper weight bearing bones (the Ischial Tuberosities). Less strain and pressure means less aggravation and pain.

2. Back Joy Core "cups" Your Muscles To Stop Painful Strains From Sitting.

   

Your body weight flattens your gluteus muscles. Even with corrected posture, your gluteus muscles will flatten under your body weight. Since the ligaments that connect your gluteus muscles to your back muscles require equal tension on both sides, your back muscles must tighten to equalize the tension. This tightening creates new pain causing stresses in your back.

Only Back Joy Core's patented Orthotic Cradling System can cup the gluteus muscles and stop them from flattening, effectively stopping the automatic tightening of your back's muscles when you sit. This avoids pain and strain, and keeps more stress off your back's muscles, joints, and ligaments.

3. Back Joy Core "Cradles" Your Pelvis And Floats Your Spinal System.

   

The lower pelvis spreads apart, and the upper pelvis pinches together, putting increased pressure on the the lumbar-sacral joint and ligaments. Like a pain relieving shock absorber, BackJoy lifts your pelvis up off the sitting surface so you sit as much as 3 inches taller. Your pelvis will float in a natural and protective cradle of muscle tissue. BackJoy restricts the spreading of the lower pelvis reducing pressure on the lumbar-sacral spine. The six components of the pelvis can work fluidly as one unit, minimizing the wear and tear on the sacral joints. No matter how good your posture, if you are not sitting on a BackJoy, you will still have the flattening that will still cause your back to hurt. Only BackJoy can naturally cradle your pelvis, and create the kind of instant and easy to get comfort that will let you sit without pain, for hours. You don't have to sit like a statue for it to work
