@MNK1958 Hello, your best bet is to first visit our website and learn about slip discs and pinched nerves. LoseTheBackPain (.) com. Then you will want to search our site to learn more about Muscle Balance Therapy
Well, 1st off, the spinal column is fairly sensitive. I've learned this after getting hit by a car while cycling. I didn't think I was hurt but after the accident, an EMT lightly ran his fingers up my spine & I felt pain; interesting. I do triathlons and I'd like to think I'm fairly in tune with my body. I've found quite often the simplest of exercises often provide the greatest rewards..like speed training or yoga. I think it is irresponsible to suggest that this product is virtually useless.
SO I tried the back to life. My complaint is the height adjustment. Im 5'5 and if I set it to 5'4 if feels more like its compressing my spine- at 5'6 it puts my legs to sleep.
The audio is so absolutely unstable that I cant stand to listen to this review beyond the introduction... bummer! My husband bought the machine. We got it today in the mail... just curious what people have had to say about it.
on the back 2 life site it says you won't notice any improvements for a month. This isn't something that releives pain right away. I was in a car accident and have SEVERE back pain. After 2 months I'm almost better using the back 2 life.
@JJECKLE13 You definitely don't have to suffer. There are alternative products that may work for you. Visit our site and learn more about your specific condition.
This device is a freaking joke. My dad sent me one after he used it a few times, when I had a herniated disc in my lower back (he is a sucker for "as seen on TV" type stuff). It does...nothing. There is hardly any immediate sensation of movement or decompression. I wouldn't even waste my time trying it out for a month to see if it works over time, because it won't. I ended up giving it away to somebody else, I wonder if they still have it or if it went out on the curb with the trash!

I bought this after a severe car accident, going to the chiropractor 2 times a week. In between visits this was a Godsend! The small motion is all that is needed to first RELAX the lower back and hips and then slowly and calmly helps to re-energize, loosen up and relieve the tension in my lower back/hips. You have to stay on it and rest afterwards to get the full effect. It isn't a "one time use", it is a constant. The more relaxed you are when you start the more beneficial it is.
@Charley711away711 Yes, you are right. You cant use it once and think it will help, you have to be consistent and use it atleast once a day for atleast a week before you really notice a difference. It isnt a cure but it sure does relieve pain to where you can actually do simple things in life. This is a great machine, only problem I had was that it isnt super sturdy but I take care of it and if I had to buy another one, I would. Great machine.

It sound like it might work, I have a bulged disc L3 and L4 (lower back( it the same motion the physical therapist was trying to get me to do by doing exercises, but I found my muscels would tense up when pushed, the does not do that, its passive... Though I have not tried it yet
My father used to suffer from back pain, almost 3 times a week and everytime he has colds, the pain s so severe. When he saw this item, he immediately bought it and tested, and the product did make him well, and sometimes when the signs of backpain shows to start, he will just use it, and eventually he's ok. Just follow the steps, and patience too is a must. Thanks to the product, it really did made him back to life.
I have had bad lower back disks for years. Tried this for 12 minutes and got up without any pain and a lot more mobility. Been on it for a few days now and can say it has give me a lot of relief in the s1, l5 and l4 area. Nothing works for everyone but this one helped in my situation.
I've got a borrowed nubax at the moment. Only had it a week. At least I can say it hasn't hurt me yet, but hasn't helped yet either. I will report back if it starts to do anything different.
Bought this a couple of months ago. This machine is a scam. Legs go to sleep using it, and the more you use it, the greater the lumbar stiffness it creates. It's actually crippling. This device has NO THERAPEUTIC VALUE whatsoever. It should be removed from the market before someone actually gets seriously injured from using it.
es realmente buenisimo...me alivia el dolor de la espalda hasta eliminarlo por completo.....es suave y efectivo.....yo tengo una hernia en la columna....y ahora ya no uso guateros ni remedios.....llevo recien un mes usandolo y con exelentes resultados..y eso que lo uso solo cuando tengo dlores de espaldas

glad I saw ur channel... was gonna get it.. my backs been hurting for a while ive tried chrio works a lil but lower back pain returns... Make you can link me some good video to help my back out...
My back to life machine came in today. It's awful. Don't waste your time or money. It made my legs fall asleep. Cause they tell you to adjust height higher for more advanced. All this did was strain my knees and but feet to sleep. Doesn't do anything to your back. Not worth it even as a last resort which I am up too. Is there another home device that helps your back out there???
In Australia the Back2life costs nearly $400 - a lot to pay for anyone in a low paid job. I have a bulging disc at L5 S1 - apparently quite a common injury. I would love some feed back from users before I fork out this kind of money - especially if its not going to work! I'll bookmark this site to see if anyone has posted. cheers, A
This machine may help some people, but generally one should stay away from it. There is no evidence to prove that this machine actually works, and there have been some cases where the machine has worsened the back pain. This machine may actually contribute to the misalignment of the spine, or contribute to the herniation of discs between the vertebrae. Generally, one should stay with a back pain specialist rather than use this product.
I blew out a disc in my lower back. The pain was excruciating. I did disc decompression therapy with a Chiropractor. I was completely pain free after 6 weeks. Afterwards I saw commercials for the back 2 life machine. It seems to do the same thing that the disc decompression therapy did. That also felt like it wasn't doing anything but it was a god send. My mom, a coworker, and someone he recommended it to all LOVE it. My advice is try it. If it doesn't work after 6 weeks, return it.
@LegPains Not sure what the machine was. I would lay on a table and the machine was on the end by my feet. A harness went around my waist and a line connected the harness back to the machine. The machine would gently pull stretching the vertabrae and then relax. The chiro explained that way your muscles get fooled and don't tense up from a constant pull. He also explained that as the vertebrae expanded it created a vacuum in the disc which helped to pull back in any bulging disc material.
@LegPains It definitely wasn't the huge DRX 9000 machine. It looked more like VAX D but there weren't any handles for me to hold on to as it stretched my back out. I just laid on the table and it felt like nap time lol Worked like a charm.
this is so funny, the commercial says 5 "easy" payments of 39.95, and they also say you won't even pay $200 for it... and I just did the math and the cost was $199.75
@meatsticks367 try buying one in Australia - its 3 easy payments of $99 or $399 once! I'm not even considering it unless I hear from some people who have tried it!
Jesse makes very good observations with it. Based on what I see from this video I agree with him about the hip getting a small distraction. I can see that the lumbar spine may get a "LITTLE" motion, which may be beneficial for someone who has a very STIFF (or very arthritic) lumbar spine and hesitates to move or do stretches due to pain. The motion is so small these type of people may benefit from it. As a physical therapist I would never recommend this machine to one of my patients.
Where are the independent double-blinde studies utilizing control groups? There are none, because because the manufacturers and marketers of the product know it is hogwash.
@javito77 - I agree... it's a great product... it delivers much better results... allows you to control the amount of traction and is very easy to use. Be sure to watch our video review of the Nubax as well.
i have this device, and it actually does work. i use it with 8 lb ankle weights on each leg. as a powerlifter, i know a thing or two about back pain. before using this, i was in constant pain. i tried everything from pills and creams to chiropractors, inversion, massage, all kinds of stretches and exercises.. and this thing took care of all my back pain after a few days of use.
$200 is definitely worth it, after all the time and money wasted on all the other stuff.
Yeah very greed to see someone objective talk about it, those commercials are full of bs and they all use expensive words so people dont understand it.
I have lots of lower back pain. Thanks for the review I will not by this now. I always hated the as seen on TV stuff. I have never had anything really good with those kinda items.
