The technology behind getback exercise therapy for back pain is world leading within modern exercise-based rehabilitation. With seamless integration of usability, safety and data capture, getback exercise therapy devices have transformed how patients approach back and neck pain treatment and rehabilitation.
Combining state-of-the-art engineering with decades of research, getback exercise therapy devices cater to a broad spectrum of users, from early-stage rehabilitation patients to elite athletes.
Bio-mechanical precision: The foundation of safety and effectiveness
At the core of getback exercise therapy devices lies bio-mechanical engineering – meticulous design that ensures safety, isolation of targeted muscles and optimal results.
getback devices for back pain and spinal rehabilitation incorporate:
Correct posture: Devices are designed to promote proper alignment and posture, maximising the fatigue of targeted muscle groups.
Isolation: getback™ devices specifically isolate and strengthen the deep spinal muscles (Multifidus) recognised as a cause of back pain by the United States Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The devices also minimise compensatory behaviour from other muscles to enable optimal training stimuli for the targeted deep spinal muscles.
Natural resistance curves: The devices are designed for isoinertial loading, where resistance corresponds to muscle capacity at each point of movement, ensuring safe and effective resistance throughout the full range of motion.
Automatic adjustments: Personalised settings for resistance and range of motion ensure patient safety, enhance training precision and reduce injury risk.
Usability: a patient-centric approach
getback™ devices are designed to empower back pain patients by making exercises straightforward and intuitive. Key usability features include:
Visual guidance: Intelligent software provides real-time feedback and compliance monitoring on device screens, ensuring the correct execution of exercises.
Ease of use: From automatic adjustments to visual cues, getback devices enable independent usage, even for patients with limited mobility.
Safety beyond standards
getback™ devices are the only exercise rehabilitation system included in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods [ARTG] as Medical Devices Class 1. Safety features include:
Optimised resistance curves: Resistance curves align with deep spinal muscle capacity, preventing excessive strain at any movement stage.
Range of Motion Control (RMC): With colour-coded visual cues, patients are guided to stay within the prescribed safe movement range. If they exceed these limits, the system issues an alert.
Joint alignment: Devices are meticulously designed to align with dynamic joint movements, ensuring safe and effective exercise for all users.
Specific vs. functional training
One of the unique advantages of getback devices are their focus on isolated training. While functional training has benefits, isolated training is crucial for rehabilitation.
By specifically targeting the deep spinal muscles (Multifidus), getback devices address compensatory behaviours often seen in patients with back pain. For example, the Hip-Fix feature on the Back Extension device ensures that hip extensors are blocked, allowing the deep spinal muscles to activate entirely.
Extensive research validates the benefits of isolated training in restoring normal movement patterns in the deep spinal muscles and preventing recurrence of back pain. By incorporating these insights, getback offers tailored solutions for rehabilitation and performance enhancement.
Experience the getback difference
With a harmonious blend of bio-mechanical precision, user-centric design and scientific validation, getback devices are the ultimate solution for safe, targeted and measurable exercise therapy for back and neck pain.
