Active, Passive and Functional Trunk Exercises—All in One!

The Total Back allows the optimum exercise intensity regardless of the patient’s level of conditioning or severity. Unique pelvic stabilization allows isolation of lumbar extensors in any range of motion.

The Total Back provides a specific lumbar extension workout at a fraction of the cost of computerized machines! It promotes strength, flexibility and coordination through controlled functional exercise.

Adjusting the table angle allows either mild exercise in a pain free range, or intense conditioning. Any level of intensity is easy to achieve!

The Total Back is the only exercise device to allow “side sit-ups” in a manner that requires co-contraction of the spinal stabilizers. This forces the back to work in a functional, not artificial, way. The angle of recline reduces the load on the spine by 20% to 30% and allows for spinal positions in flexion, extension or side lying through a range of 110 degrees. “Side sit-ups” are great for the obliques, transversus abdominus, multifundus, quadratus lumborum and erector spinae muscles.

The Total Back also includes a full-size wall poster featuring 28 numbered exercises to aid in developing a customized exercise program.
