The NEW GENERATION in back pain management

The BodyBolster™, is a self inflating postural support that combines ‘tool and skill’ with a self treatment capability wider than any other self help tool available. Developed by a team of Australian physical therapists for the purpose of allowing relaxation of the muscles and mobility of the joints. Its firm yet flexible texture is designed to ‘allow’ movement, rather than forcing movement; the firmness supports, while the flexibility promotes movement. The springiness switches on core muscles (for improved strength) and promotes erect positive posture, avoiding lower back pain, shoulder aches and neck strain, so it strengthens as it supports!


Research shows that ‘active’ sitting can improve the fitness and alertness of employees and reduce pain and fatigue… the BodyBolster™ is an excellent strategy to promote ‘active’ sitting…

Conventional foam or plastic supports are ‘passive’- holding the torso in a static position. This weakens the muscles (they turn off) and exacerbate the problem.


The BodyBolster™ provides ‘active’ support because it is air filled - allowing micro movement through the spine. This relieves stiffness, shoulder aches and back pain.
I have used the BodyBolster extensively with elite athletes to referred physiotherapy clients….it has allowed me to provide movement options I had only been able to provide in less efficient ways.
