I have had a back stretcher for years and I was about to buy another one because It has never worked for my lower back pain ... Thanks to you I found out that I was just doing what the instructions said to do...but I tried it the way that you said and now I can actually feel a stretch in my lower back..FINALLY..THANK YOU SOOO MUCH ❤❤🎉🎉
I'm 28 and have lower backpain for weeks. I've inspired of this video and put a rolled up towel under my lower back as you showed. It really worked, I couldn't even believe it first omg!! I'm so happy, thanks!
Thanks for the advice. The reason I bought this is I suffer from sciatica and have for most of my adult life and it is causing me a lot of discomfort and pain which is affecting my life.
My necks been locked up in one side for about 4 years. I went to the Chiro and he helped me get it to where I can stretch it and avoid any pinched nerve. I used one of these for 3 days and my neck is free. Also freed up my upper hip lower back area.
Thank you so much for doing this! I’ve been using it for a week and had an insane lower back pain on my disc area, now I realized the positioning was totally wrong as you mentioned. So thanks!
Its a pleasure :) gad you found it helpful! it is such a common error. would be good if they had a little more instruction to be honest! If you are struggling with the low back disc, do check out the program on our website - it will help you :) backinshapeprogram.com
wow my dad told me to do the bridge position and i told him no thats not how they have shown online but after so much of information I have understood because of you he was right I should've listened to him . Thanks
I'm 23 years old and I've had sciatica pain down my left leg since I was 17 because of sports and physical activities. Now since I was 19 I work and Blue Collar Job and lift all day. I got the Acemands Back strecher and in three days my pain is completely gone. It was definitely a little painful when I first did it but slowly got easier and easier. Back is still a little sore but it gets better everyday. I haven't felt this good in along time and it's amazing. If your considering getting one do it, its only $20 and I feel great. It's worth a shot.
Great to hear it's helping you, do check out some of the tutorials on our channel page as they will help you build up a little more resilience and control which will help you at work!
THANK YOU!!! I felt like I was using it wrong and it turns out I was, but it was SO right! My lower back hates me and I think with this in the "wrong" position, it'll help tremendously! Thanks for confirming wrong is right for the lower back!
Great work man. There are less people out there who provide this type of vital information. People are blindly marketing any information but there are some like you, who corrects them. Well done
Bought a back stretcher for middle back pain due to posture problems , works well for me immediate relief. Never used it for more than a minute just in case.
Thanks so much for this informative video. I just ordered my first stretcher and my pain, problem is in that lower region. So this information is vital for me when it arrives.
Hope you find it helpful and if you've not seen it, do check out the masterclass video which will help you with the low back issue :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QIYFt7qQbJw.html
Absolutely brilliant video. I spend my days sitting since I work remotely from home. Bought one, receiving this Wednesday and needed the instructions of how to use it. Very educational. And your accent and face is a ++. 😁
this video was so, so helpful. my family got me one of these for my lower disc injury because chiropractic visits were getting too expensive, but every time I went to use it, it was just causing more pain.
Thankyou so much it was very informative & i can immediately see the changes in my lower back. Earlier i too was doing as per the ads but wasnt feeling any difference in the lower back pain but just by doing once as you showed i feel a huge difference in my lower back pain. It has reduced the pain immediately. Thanks once again.
It's a pleasure, it is funny that they don't give good advice with the marketing material! probably loosing out on a fair few customers & good reviews! (you're not the first person to say this)
Thanks for this! I've been using it wrong especially when getting on and off. Only had it a few days so this has been so helpful. Couldn't really find any helpful instructions on how to use till now.
I am glad you found this video helpful! you're not the first to say that! well at least the video is here online and comes up as relevant :D. Make sure you're doing some strengthening work alongside this - the two will work wonders :)
Absolutely brilliantly presented. . This man knows his stuff. Like others no instructions provided when bought the product. Mine is a lower back problem so its makes sense the way you described issues people have with it. Thank you so much. Just need to build up the core muscles now.
Thank you so much for these videos! I was diagnosed with DDD back in 2021 and have had issues with flare up lately and I just bought myself a back stretcher and cannot wait for it to come! I’m excited to see the changes I’m going to be able to make with the advice that you have offered!!
This one video answered so many questions, thank you. I was instinctively doing what you were saying. Its hard to know the difference between feels good and is good, but you showed the mechanics and it makes sense now.
thank you for this! The place I got mine from had no instructions and I was using it completely wrong. I was going to return it until I saw your video. I just tried it this way, and I got a really great stretch on my lower back and it took away a bunch of tension 🙏
What a great help! Thank you very much. Been having chronic backpain for months now. I bought one of this online, hoping it'll ease my backpain, but after every used, this thing made it worst! I followed the instructions that comes with the device. I thought I got scammed into buying one of this 😆 I never thought I'm using it all wrong. Good thing I found your channel 😊

I have a thing called True Back. It has the Apex down further . I’ve use the True Back for close to 20 years after having a boat with sciatica. Thank goodness it’s never came back. I do a little tulip on the True Back every so often.
Thanks for the great advice. I have been using my back stretcher for T12 L1 issues and it has helped a lot, however I was getting on and off incorrectly. So thank you for that great tip. It's also great to change position and stretch my lumber region as you have shown. Also I love your awesome socks 🧦 👍🏻🥰
It's a pleasure :) glad you found the video helpful. yeah using it to also help that lower lumbar level will be handy long term :D Glad the socks made an impression too :D
Your video was so helpful! I have sleeping issues so tend to spend most nights on my sofa + I'm way overweight so wanted to get myself a back stretcher to help me. Followed the guidelines from the manufacturer and I have put so much stress on my upper abs that's it's unbearable! With your advice, it helps immensely. Thank you 🙏
It's a pleasure, we're glad that the video helped you! if you need any more help do check out the program for more guidance: backinshapeprogram.com plus our youtube channel in general :)
: I have used a back stretcher succesfully against lower back pain (from a disc rupture 15 years ago) the wrong way! Will be interesting to try it your way, and see if it is even better…or more comfortable to use.
I have lower back pain and I will be using my wife's back stretcher, good thing she lost her instructions for this device, thank you for the good instructions 😊
No problem Christopher! If you've had it for a longer period of time definitely take a look at our full program on the site, it will help :) backinshapeprogram.com
its a pleasure, you might find this interesting too (given you mention spondylosis) backinshapeprogram.com/2023/07/degenerative-disc-disease-in-the-low-back-the-essential-guide/
It's a pleasure Alana :D glad it was helpful! the dismount is so important as last thing you want is to somewhat undo the good you've done on the thing!
My back hurts right behind my rib where you say most don't have issues I have always thought that was lower back sometimes it hurts lower but it constantly hurts right below the Middle where you pointed at top of green section
I've used a similar product, and, while I get relief while I'm in the correct position, once I am done, I still only get about 5 minutes of relief from my pain.
These things unfortunately do not fix the underlying issue, for that you need to be doing the right sort of rehabilitative work, which so often people are not. (according to what we see) - if you need help with your back check out the program on the website: backinshapeprogram.com
Sorry to hear that, these two videos could help you: 1) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-90QL7wnntcs.html&t on standing up with back pain, and 2) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S-U91pyu8L8.html on muscle spasm :)

11:59 I have had extremely lower back pain for over 3 months. I have been in the emergency room 3 times it started with a kidney infection and I was treated and my lower part of my back kept me from doing anything…. I am a pastors wife and I couldn’t even go to church because my back hurts so bad . I was informed that my bladder was not emptying from the first CAT scan that I had so I was informed to go to a urologist. It took me about three weeks to get to see an urologist during that time I was in a lot of pain. Spent days in the bed. I then had a catheter put in and was told I had to wear it for 4 weeks … I cried the first week solid… I went back to the emergency room two more trips …I called and begged them to get me in a week earlier if there was a cancellation and they did that was today. They did several test and an ultrasound ,did a scope and could see nothing wrong inside at all wrong. He suggested that I see a back doctor because it might be a pinched nerve and it is causing some problems with my bladder . And another nightmare I have to use a catheter four times a day to empty my bladder…. I did a lot of praying on the way home. I remembered having the back magic thing and thought I will try that I don’t know what else to do it’s a holiday so I’ve got to wait to get into see another doctor. I came home and found it and did it but of course I did it wrong and the Lord blessed me to Google and there you were explaining the right way how to do it I praise God for you and I will try to keep you informed to let you know if this helps me. I just feel like the Lord open the door for me to see this video to help me to know what to do may God bless you for the time that you have taken to explain the right and wrong way to use it. I have subscribed.and look forward to seeing more of your videos. And I will try to keep you informed. May God bless you 😊with Christian love, thank you Sherry.
So long as you've had the kidney and bladder stuff ruled out, its best to work on building back up your lower back, check out the program on our website with that and the support in the membership you should find it helps you tremendously! - the link to the site: backinshapeprogram.com
It is a little confusing to call it wrong position, then preface IF you have lower back pain only. For those using to improve back/spine mobility and unload spine I assume a little higher position or even moving from lower to mid back would be ideal?
I think it is fundamentally only really a useful tool for low back - granted some might find they like to use it for mid back but the thoracic spine will not mould to that shape on account of the ribs to say the least.
If you have any questions please do pop them in the comments below and we will get back to you. 😀 We have also updated this video and compared 4 different back stretchers! To watch this full review click here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-i32tyBpz0pk.html
I have almost the exact same one you used in this video.. is there a way to use this for the upper back/shoulders or neck? That's one of my problems areas ... besides the lowest part of it back... thank you for your time.. this video should have 50x more views
I think realistically you probably could use it for the upper back but the neck it's just too big. To be honest you'd be better off using a rolled towel for the upper back and neck :)
I have one with bumps and use it to treat the whole of my back when on holiday. I just reposition on it . For use at home I have a heavier and longer wooden one which reaches all of my spine. Couldn't do without either of them.
fundamentally alongside a good rehabilitation program it would be a good counter for the rounding that we put on our backs on a daily basis. To be honest though I'd say you're best of starting out with a towel before spending the money on the stretcher :) check out the video on the homepage of our youtube channel - that routine is a good starting place :)
I really have a bad posture and cannot arch my back fully. Im a doctor but never actually have my back properly examined by an expert. Is it normal to actually have a progressive pain in the lower back when i do the stretch? Will it go away slowly as i routinely stretch? Also since my back cannot arch fully i really put my weight on the upper back and neck and it doesnt feel nice, so i put a pillow under my neck. Appreciate all your help in the video 👐
There's quite a lot there, but we would say work on using a smaller rolled towel instead - it is normal for people to experience some discomfort especially if you've had back issues for a while
Thank you so much for posting this. I've been struggling with just walking lately because of my lower back pain (the muscles start to tighten and spasm if I walk even a short distance) so I ordered myself a back stretcher hoping it will help. I would have completely done it the wrong way if I hadn't found your video. Once again thank you in advance.
no problem at all Marcella, Do check out the program on our website as this will certainly help you with your back pain. The stretching of course is one part but people often get caught out either doing the wrong strengthening exercises or not doing strengthening at all. :) here's a link to the website: backinshapeprogram.com/
