Why do we need Lumbar support?
Lumbar supports come in all shapes and sizes—from simple wooden boards to padded chairs with backrests—but they all serve one purpose: to provide extra support for the lower spine area so that it doesn’t become fatigued from supporting too much weight on its own (or because there’s been too much sitting).
Lumbar support is an important part of standing for long periods of time. When you stand, your back muscles are required to support your body weight and keep you upright. While this can be accomplished through muscular activity and good posture, lumbar support helps ensure that these muscles don’t fatigue or weaken over time.
What is Back hammock?
This innovative product helps to alleviate lower back pain by providing lumbar support while standing at your desk or working site. With its unique design, this stand-up desk accessory supports your body in several ways:
it provides lumbar support during long periods of standing; encourages movement throughout the day;
keeps you active both mentally and physically.
How do it work?
There are three ways to use the Back Hammock:
— Static mode: relax and lean against the Back Hammock while standing
The Back Hammock is helpful for people with back pain, bad posture, and other types of back problems. It can also be used to help you improve your posture while sitting at your desk or computer desk.
— Active Mode: Swing your body and stay active
Swinging your body is a great way to stay active while standing. As you swing, your body will naturally release tension and keep the blood flowing through your muscles. This helps prevent muscle soreness from setting in after sitting for long periods of time.
The more time you spend moving while standing, the better it will feel over time—and this can help with other areas such as mood disorders and depression as well!
— Active Mode: Move your body front to back to feel the resistant pull
The active mode is a stretching exercise that helps you feel the resistance pull of your body when moving from one side to the other. It’s important not to move too quickly or too slowly, but rather just enough so that you can feel it in your muscles and connect those feelings with what’s happening inside of you.
