Dynaspine’s concept supported by global leader in spinal biomechanics

Stuart McGill is a world leading researcher in the field of back pain. His work is admired and implemented throughout the world. He agrees with Dynaspine; a static back support is not as effective at helping your back as that of a dynamic device, which helps much more.

He says, “stresses develop during sitting that become problematic if they are not reduced. For example, when sitting slouched, muscle activity is minimal but the passive tissues (ligaments and annulus of the disc) become stressed.”

He goes onto explain that thanks to the work of Dr. Solomonow, we are now beginning to understand the effects of prolonged loading on these structures. We have found that prolonged loading can result in back muscle spasms and diminishes reflex responses. “Full flexion during slouched sitting increases disc annulus stresses; this posture has produced disc herniations in the lab” (e.g., Wilder et al., 1988).

The research also found that when we sit with an upright torso posture, higher activation of the psoas and the back extensors is required, which impose higher compressive forces on the spine.

There are ways to reduce the stresses that Dr. Solomonow found. As Dr. McGill explains, “the objective is to make sitting a dynamic activity with frequent posture changes. Changing lumbar posture causes a migration of the loads from one tissue to another.”

We should reduce the risk and make sitting a dynamic task; ideal posture is one that continuously changes. We are delighted that Dr McGill agrees with our view on back pain. The hundreds of back pain sufferers who have used our Dynaspine Back Support would definitely agree!

Dynaspine is a unique back support that was specifically designed following research such as that of Dr. Solomonow. The Dynaspine Back Support has 2 back support plates that are built on a special spring mechanism. This encourages the back muscles to keep moving, provides continuous support through changes in seating positions and also promotes a healthy posture.
