Description

Back pain during and after sitting affects millions of people worldwide. Many of them are healthy individuals who just find sitting uncomfortably; others are already being treated for their back pain.

The BackFriend is the only solution to eliminating back, leg and hip pain when seated.

Much of the discomfort is due to poor seat design but it also depends on the activity you are undertaking while seated.

Your angle of vision, the load in your hands and shoulders, the operation of levers or pedals (in a vehicle or plane) can all lead to postural stress on the back.

A backrest should take the weight off the spine up to the mid-shoulder level to prevent backache.

The curve of the low back support must fit you properly and prevent your pelvis from rolling back.

The inclination of the backrest must be adjustable. The thickness of the backrest should not significantly reduce the depth or height of the seat.

 

All of these awesome features are met by the BackFriend Back & Base.

  • Portable lightweight seating system which weighs less than 2 kg for the largest model.
  • Inbuilt contoured carry handle enables you to easily take it wherever you go.
  • Folds up for carrying and is compact so easily packed in the overhead plane cabin.
  • Superior grade foam padding for added support and comfort.
  • Hard-wearing quality commercial fabric.
  • Requires no straps to keep in position.
  • Supports the lumbar and thoracic spine.
  • Honeycomb gel cushion can be used on the seat base of BackFriend back and base if pressure relief is required.

Also Available in Wide

Refer to the measurements to decide what width is required.

    AM – July 9, 2021

    I am an 82-year-old woman who has lived with a back problem ever since the age of 18.
    I was told about SoleMate/ergogo and the BACKFRIEND by my friend Erica who told me about a Dr friend of hers who had a special seat that helped his back.
    From that moment my life changed, I met Judy Rynn, Solutionst of ergogo who on understanding my problem has gone way beyond the call of duty in supplying me (and my numerous friends). With the amazing backfriend, a special ergonomically designed seat that somehow eases the pressure on my spinal cord, and enables me to live normally!
    I have 2 seats, one being permanently in the car, the other goes everywhere with me, I’ve used them for years and highly recommend backfriend to anyone with a back problem

    LL – May 5, 2020

    After purchasing the BackFriend for my car about a month ago: it has taken a bit of juggling with extra towels and a bit of getting used to but the BackFriend has definitely improved my comfort in the car.
