Development of core stability muscles is critical if the body is to remain active and injury free. This is because the core muscles are the foundation of all other movement and when these muscles contract they stabilise the spine, pelvis and shoulders and create a solid base of support.
VertiBaX lower back products are specifically shaped to help these muscles work effectively by providing deep muscle therapy in the case of the Healthcare Sensory Belt, thereby releasing tension in the core muscles, allowing increased levels of pain free exercise, resulting in beneficial development of these muscle groups. The Active Support provides additional strength to the back allowing for longer more intense periods of exercise, thereby enabling the rebuilding of muscle fibres to take place more quickly.
Physiotherapists have been particularly impressed at how the two supports have been designed to compliment each other, something Yorkshire representative rugby forwards are currently benefitting from.
