Back Cracker Device Back Stretcher for Lower Back Pain Relief, Multi-Level Adjustable Spine Board for Herniated Disc, Sciatica, Scoliosis, Lower and Upper Back Support With EVA Cover

I’ve been curious about this back stretcher for a while; I’ve seen the ads and after a few months of not getting any relief from upper back pain I bought it. It was super easy to put together, I was excited to give it a try.I was underwhelmed the first try, I had it on the lowest setting, so I moved it up a notch. I started at my low back and slowly moved it until it was between the shoulder blades. It hurt! The pad had a lot of knobby things on it to aid in pressure point massage- I lasted about 10 seconds. I picked up the booklet and read it for the first time and it clearly states that you may want to put a towel over the knobby bits the first few times until you get used to it.Over the course of a week I used it several times a day working my way up to lasting a minute on it. I finally moved it up to the highest setting and my upper back finally popped and cracked for the first time in months and the pain relief was instant.I’m used to the pressure points now and actually enjoy the massage it gives. This isn’t something you can just lay on and boom it works, it is a process that is well worth the time spent.One tip, bend your knees when using it so your back stays in contact with the floor it’s a lot more comfortable that way.

It’s a little hard, added something soft for comfort. Definitely what I needed to stretch out my back, I work on Diesel engines for a living and there are days when I need to just lie on the floor, this helps give my back that extra stretch it needs to feel better, definitely a game changer.

I had 2 bulging discs in my lower back along with one herniated disk from a work injury (construction worker). I went to all the doctors and they wanted to fuse my back with pins and rods (didn’t happen and won’t). 15 years later was still going to chiropractor and my back was the worse it ever was (excruciating pain). Thought I’d try one of these for the heck of it along with a piece of plywood between my mattress and box spring, and I’ve been pain free for almost a year now. This is amazing! I’m not a doctor but I swear it feels like it sucked those discs back into place 🤷‍♂️

This is the 2nd stretcher of this type I've purchased. The quality is fine, it's easy to use and adjust however the lowest setting is too arched, might be better for a taller person I'm only 5'1". But if the arch works for you then it does wonders for back pain and migraine relief.

I normally use a foam roller but thought I would try this back stretcher to see if I could have additional relief in my back pain. It does help with stretching and it’s very comfortable to use, it also has ridges that help crack your back as you stretch.

Love! Takes a bit getting used to but once you do, it's awesome. I also use it while working throughout the day and it helps prevent me from slouching at times when work gets intense.For some may want to lay something over it prior to starting use. And would not recommend 15 minutes a day right off the bat, definitely work your way up to it. It took me about 3 days to get used to it. Definitely worth it and less expensive than all the doctor appointments and meds they throw at you THAT DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

My husband has back issues but he used it once and said he didn’t like it.

This may be good for the young yoga-teaching 18-year old who does gymnastics on the side! It’s not really for me. It hurts me to lay on and that’s on the lowest setting. I DO NOT have a bad back, just need to stretch once in a while, but I simply can’t use this device!
