Full Testimonials

Since receiving my Backchamp a couple of weeks ago I have been using it mornings and evenings with very positive results. Having spent too many hours and too much money visiting various specialists regarding my misaligned pelvis, using Backchamp has eliminated my back pain and allowed me to get back to running again. I remain amazed that something seemingly so simple can work so effectively.

Thank you so much for allowing me to get back my life!

Just to let you know that most of my 'clients' are students as I lecture in Exercise and Health and Moving and Handling People. I will certainly recommend your product to them as I have had some very good results myself. I moved house two days before the Back Show and what with all the lifting and heaving heavy boxes, bending and twisting, you can imagine I was in agony. I hobbled to the Back Show with my complementary ticket and visited your stand. One of your colleagues showed me how to use the Backchamp. I bought one straight away and have not had a twinge since! Is it a miracle, or is it the placebo effect? Who cares, I feel great!

I finish work today and shall not be in contact with any students until the end of September, but will definitely recommend your product to them, my colleagues as well.

Many thanks.

I just had to email you to put on record my enormous appreciation for the Backchamp. Using the Backchamp is now an integral and essential part of my life and has given me the power to maintain a trouble free back. I have been using it for some ten months now, and am well on the way to a permanent cure for lifelong back problems. Furthermore, the Backchamp is so easy to use that anyone could incorporate it into even the busiest schedule without any effort. I have suffered from back problems most of my life, with continual back ache and frequent visit to the osteopath when my back “went”, since an initial sporting accident which was put down to the ubiquitous “slipped disc”. Anyone who has suffered from back problems knows how draining and demoralising this is and will appreciate how empowering it feels to be able to take control and do something about it yourself.

The BackChamp is brilliant. The elegance and simplicity of the design should win it an award. It is discreet, compact, portable and incredibly easy to use. It has proved effortless to incorporate its use as a regular part of my daily schedule, and that is saying something for someone with my history of trying many things but never persisting with them!

Once again, thank you and congratulations on a wonderful product.

Best Regards,

In February 2004 I suddenly started to experience quite severe spasms in the small of my back. As I did not have a history of back pain and as I could not recall any incident that could have caused the pain (i.e. an accident or lifting incorrectly), I persevered until it got to the point where the pain was unbearable.

A friend put me in contact with a Chiropractor, who initially X-Rayed me and advised me that I had a couple of vertebrae out. After 7 sessions of electronic pulses being aimed at the muscles in my back, I decided to look elsewhere for treatment as I was getting steadily worse. I contacted a Physio who had been recommended to me and, to be fair, after 5 or 6 sessions of intensive massage, I was able to walk upright again, however the relief was only temporary and the pain would always return after 4-5 days. As the pain was now becoming unbearable I was sent via work to see a consultant who referred me to BUPA for an MRI scan.

The scan proved to be inconclusive and indicated that there was nothing too wrong with my back. However, the excruciating pain that I was suffering was not a figment of my imagination! After over 10 sessions with an Osteopath I was advised that I should consider having injections into my ligaments even though the exact nature of the problem was not known. This set alarm bells ringing as it began to feel like I was becoming a guinea pig.

At this point a friend of mine told me about the Backchamp. I am not a great believer in ‘alternative’ treatments but to be honest, I was at the stage whereby I would have given anything a go. After using the Backchamp for a few days, it was doing the job and pretty soon I found that the pain was easing and life was beginning to return to some sort of normality.

Since I started using the Backchamp regularly in November 2004, the pain in my back has eased by 90% and on most days I barely notice it. While my back is still not 100%, I am aware that I can continue to get better by regular use of the Backchamp.

Whenever I have read testimonies before, I have always doubted their authenticity, but I would note that I am just a normal family man with a normal job and without an endless history of ill health. You don’t have to believe me but if you are reading this and you suffer really bad pain to the bottom of your back, so much so that you can barely stand up straight, then I would strongly recommend that you buy a Backchamp.

My wife has noted a significant improvement in ease of movement in her back since she started using the Backchamp twice a day. For example recently she had a spell of gardening, with the usual after effects of stiffness in her lower back, which was much relieved after using the Backchamp several times. I think she will try and incorporate it into a daily routine.

I notice that the pain I used to get in my middle back and down my leg (often after prolonged standing) has been much better and far less troublesome since using the Backchamp. It was getting quite painful after standing, say, for twenty minutes or so. Now I use it before and after any standing or bending.

With thanks and I hope you continue to get good feedback from users.

Best wishes,

Just to let you know that since buying the Backchamp, I have used it more or less everyday to keep my back aligned. As a result, I have not had any back pain!

I make sure that if I have lifted something heavy that I use my backchamp immediately after to prevent any back pain and so far this has worked very well. I am looking forward to no more back pain in the future...

Thank you for a great product.

I have used the Backchamp at least twice daily since last August 2005. It really is an excellent back pain product. It eases the discomfort of my lower back pain and stiffness. In addition to this, I have noticed a marked improvement in my posture. At 86 years old it is my best friend. It goes everywhere with me. I would be 'lost' without it.

I would like to thank you and the fantastic Backchamp for helping me cure a chronic back ache condition that I was suffering from for nearly 10 years!

I have tried lots of different therapies. These have included Physiotherapy, Osteopathy, Acupuncture, Acupressure, Magnet Therapy and Chinese Massage Therapy. I was referred to the pain clinic at King George Hospital in Essex and have also had Ayurvedic treatments. But nothing has worked like the Backchamp.

I therefore unreservedly recommend the Backchamp to anyone who has a back ache problem. FULL MARKS TO THE BACKCHAMP!

With kind regards and warm wishes,

I can hardly believe that I'm relieved of my back pain, I keep thinking this can't be happing, my back has been a problem for ten years, lower backache, mid back as I have a slight scoliosis, neck stiff and painful sleep disturbances etc...

I've been seeing osteopaths, chiropractics and currently seeing a cranial sacral therapist, which has been easing the pain time for longer. I can't wait to see him in two weeks time and show him.

You did a demo on me with the Backchamp and we heard a pop. I did have a discrepancy that day of an inch difference. Since using the Backchamp 3 times a day my legs have become more even. I cannot believe how the tension has gone in such a short time. In 7 days the tightness from my occipital down to my left ankle has gone!

I shall most definitely be using the Backchamp daily for always.

I have been waking up so refreshed and feeling so light and calm. Thank you so very much for this amazing invention. It reminds me of that old saying... " when you now how, it is so simple" !

I have no doubt that the Backchamp will be a great success.

Best wishes,

Since 1950 I've been plagued with back trouble.

Orthodox medical treatment supported by state of the art investigations, has failed to provide lasting relief.

Happily the Backchamp has helped enormously and I'm very grateful for it. I look forward to continuing improvement and I thoroughly recommend the Backchamp to anyone with back pain.

Warm regards,

I had a terrible pain in the small of my back. I own a landscaping business and cannot afford to not be working, so after some research on the internet I bought a Backchamp on the off-chance that it would help.

I still don't know exactly what was causing the pain - (though I now suspect it was some kind of misalignment) - but using the Backchamp has helped tremendously! Now any time I feel a twinge I use the Backchamp and I can physically feel my pelvis move and releive the pain.

Thank you.

I bought the Backchamp after my Osteopath told me that one of my legs was longer than the other. He said that this was because my hips were out of alignment and that this was putting pressure on my back.

From the first time I used it, the Backchamp made an incredible difference. Now most of the time I can feel and tell when my hips have gone out of alignment and when I use the Backchamp I hear the click of the hips being re-aligned. When I get up and walk I can feel the difference straight away. It really is an ingenious device!.

P.S. I'm sure that it also has a slightly strengthening effect on the surrounding muscles!

After suffering a severe head injury some years ago which led to Traumatic Stress Disorder, walking or running with ease and normality was only possible with a difficult gait. I was recommended by my therapist to be treated by one Alexander Barrie.

Alexander Barrie introduced my to the Backchamp, a device which enabled me to align and keep aligned my pelvis. This revolutionised the quality of my life, in that I was able to walk and to run with no significant difficulty thenceforth.

The successful use of the Backchamp runs counter to all previous medical opinion on my physical condition.

I would gladly recommend to everyone the use of the Backchamp device to enable them to be erect in posture and to maintain their pelvic alignment thereby allaying back-pain and other musculo-skeletal aches and pains, such as with shoulder and neck and more.

As you know I have been using your new Backchamp device for some time now in order to re-align the lower back and pelvic region. It has helped my aches and pains enormously.

It is also worth noting that I am very impressed with the design. I am now retired, but my background as a civil and structural engineer means that I know how difficult it is to produce something that is easy and comfortable to use, as well as durable and portable. With the Backchamp you really have excelled yourselves! I particularly like the idea of using friction to take the loads imposed during the technique and the holes and padding make it very comfortable to use. You have obviously taken care to use high grade materials and this really shows in the finished product.

Please feel free to use this testimonial on your website if you wish.

I have been having treatments from a chiropractor for my back problems for the last 17 years.

I was introduced to a technique that re-aligns the pelvis by my therapist who told me that many back problems are due to an unstable pelvis. The Backchamp device enables this special technique to be executed easily and without fuss and only takes a minute or so to do. This is the first time someone has given me exercises for home maintenance for my back. I feel this has given me independence and most times whenever I feel pain in my back or in my knees, a quick couple of minutes on the BackChamp, relieves the pain.

It is unbelievable that such simple equipment like the BackChamp can make such a difference to my back pain. I wholly recommend that anyone with back or knee problems should have the Backchamp with them at all times.

After recieving my Backchamp, I'm delighted to report a success story. Following a hip replacement, I endured a constant and pretty severe pain in my right buttock, which I couldn't identify or wholly understand.

Neither could any of the health professionals nor a variety of osteopaths, chiropractors, or other therapists. It was extremely painful and resisting all efforts to eliminate it.

Two weeks of using the Backchamp - it went on holiday with me to Spain - and the pain has gone!!! My posture has improved greatly and.......my young wife tells me I appear 10 years younger !!!!!!!!!!!!! HONEST !!!!

Many thanks.

The Backchamp is an incredibly clever device. Since buying one, it goes everywhere with me – it is the last thing I pack and the first thing I unpack whenever I go anywhere.

I now know that whenever I am feeling uncomfortable all I have to do is use my Backchamp and I will feel so much better. I am now able to go to the gym three or four times a week something I have not been able to do for a very long time, and even after a three hour car journey after just a few exercises the stiffness disappears.

Thank you for making such a difference.

Dear Backchamp,

Following our telephone last month, just a brief catch up note now that we are back from Jerez and to let you know that the Backchamp proved a greater asset than I could have ever envisaged.

The house we stayed at turned out to be up not one but three dirt tracks!!! These were starting to disintegrate further when we left due to the amazing storms which hit the Atlantic coast. (We ended up in a hotel)

You can imagine the bumping about going up these tracks in a hire car (a four wheel drive would have been more appropriate). My back really suffered and the Backchamp helped enormously. It's brilliant!

Kind regards,

The Backchamp was recommended to me by my father after I had suffered a serious injury to my knee. It had become a persistent problem, one which would lead to my knee locking up either during or after exercising and finally led to my withdrawal from this year’s London Marathon one week before the race.

I had been experiencing these problems since the age of 17 but had been told by doctors that it was caused by a twisting of the knee, as a result of my leg muscles not being flexible enough to give enough support. I was told to carry out a set of stretches and rest the knee completely for two weeks every time the problem occurred. However, this never actually prevented the injury from reoccurring.

After using the Backchamp for a week, the results have been remarkable. I am now able to resume full training, and have also seen my lower back pain eradicated from my daily life.

Thank you,

I had suffered from hip and back trouble for more than 11 years before having the good fortune to find the Backchamp. I had tried everything I could think of with varying degrees of success. Any improvement was only temporary.

However, by exercising a few minutes a day with the Backchamp, I have been able to keep my back aligned and, as a result, I am experiencing dramatic improvement to both back and hip pains.

My deep gratitude is due, therefore, to you and your wonderful device.

Just a quick note to tell you how delighted I am with the Backchamp.

I have been using it regularly now for three weeks and am finding it very helpful in relieving my back pain. I am finding that it really helps to release the tension in my lower back and make it feel more flexible. (The side effect of a flat stomach and better thigh muscles is a great added bonus!)

It really is a terrific help in the battle to keep pain at bay and at last I feel I have more control over my back/disk problem.

I have recently started Pilates and will show this fab device to my instructor. It would definitely be a worthy addition to her studio!

Best wishes,

I wanted to mentioned to you how useful I am finding the backchamp. It really is a revelation and has proved an excellent method of maintaining a good (and straight) back. It's incredibly simple which ensures that when I do the technique, I am confident that I am doing it correctly. Most importantly I take it everywhere with me. Having it to hand means that it has become a regular part of my daily routine – like brushing my teeth. I can't tell you what a difference it has made to my life.

Thank you so very much.
