Invented by Dr. David Vitko, a chiropractic physician with over 30 years of experience, the BackTrac helps relax muscle tension, improve spinal joint mobility, relieve tender trigger points and gently stretch your spine. The BackTrac provides this deep, invigorating massage and more. In fact, the BackTrac is designed to provide five professional treatments at once – right in the comfort of your own home. The BackTrac provides acupressure to reduce trigger point tenderness, a deep massage to aid muscle function and to gently stretch your spine. It also puts motion through tight, restricted spinal facet joints. Lastly, the BackTrac exercises core muscle groups that support your spine, like abs and hip muscles. You won’t notice the exercise because you will be too busy enjoying the invigorating massage the BackTrac is known for. It provides an intense massage, and is designed for people who want to aggressively treat their back pain at home. You’ll need to be able to get down on the floor and back up safely to use this product. If there’s any question as to whether you should use the BackTrac, please consult your physician or health professional.
