The Backpod strongly and safely stretches out the upper back which drives most neck problems. The elliptical form of the therapeutic device allows comfortable stretching over the gentler longitudinal curve and greater leverage over the tighter transverse radius. The support cushion is made of TPV material, while the integrated energy compression cones adapt smoothly to the spine to augment the contact surface. A transparent base allows the complexity of the structure to be seen and appreciated.
Statement by the Jury
The exciting colour and material effects lend the Backpod a young and agile appearance that underscores its health benefits.
