TESTIMONIALS
Yakov Feldman,
age 55,
Engineer:
I spend hours each day in the office, sitting at my desk, working at my computer. My back really used to play up, and I found myself suffering from a great deal of discomfort that affected my concentration. Once I started using Backlife, I could go for much longer periods of the day without my back hurting. I found that using Backlife really helped to get rid of that nagging pain.
Shahar Goldberg,
Teacher,
age 44:
I spend a lot of time on my feet every day, and by the time I got home at night I was just too tired, stressed and sore to take care of what needed to be done. I just wasn’t functioning effectively because my back really hurt. I started using Backlife on a daily basis and from the first session, felt an immediate improvement. Backlife is a relaxing treatment that helps to keep my back in good shape. It’s definitely worth it.
Gideon Yefet,
lawyer,
age 75:
I never paid much attention to my back, until it started bothering me on a daily basis. Someone suggested I try Backlife. I was a little skeptical at first, but decided to try it anyway then I tried Backlife and after a few sessions, I felt much better.
Shula Rozi,
age 30,
businesswoman:
Back pain used to be a way of life-something I woke up with, and something I went to sleep with. It really affected my ability to enjoy the simple things in life, I felt irritable and out-of-sorts just about all the time. Backlife changed all that –I have a better quality of life and I’m free of back pain for the first time in years.
Edna Arbel,
age 36
consultant:
I’m a very active person with three young children, so when my back went out, it really affected my daily routine. I couldn’t pick up my youngest child because it hurt too much to bend. I didn’t think that backache could be such a problem. I tried hot treatments, cold treatments, bed rest, but nothing really seemed to do the job. Finally, my friend recommended I try Backlife. After a few sessions, the pain subsided and I was able to get back to doing all those things I missed. I’ve told all my friends about it too.

You have asked me to tell you how I learnt about the device and how I feel. The fact is that since I suffer from lower back pain of the vertebrae I am always seeking solutions.
I have visited chiropractors, physiotherapists, pain clinics and done whatever possible, none of which provided much help; the pain continued.
A friend told me about an article on your device which had appeared in the Ma’ariv daily paper. I contacted you and leased the device for a two week trial period.
And indeed, after a few sessions I felt a considerable improvement in the pain, I was able to function and to walk. My situation improved to such an extent that I cancelled my appointment at the pain clinic.
Thank you. I have recommended the device to many people who have purchased it and who thank me for the information.
Thanks

I use my Backlife device twice a day, each time for 12 minutes.
If I’m not lazy, I occasionally add weights - anklets each weighing one kilo. I use a stopwatch and enjoy several minutes of relaxation and a painless back.
Since using Backlife, I no longer suffer from back pain and have finished with pain medication. What more can I say than a simple thank you?

I am in receipt of your letter dated April 10 requesting me to give you my personal story.
I am so pleased with your device that I believe that it is my humanitarian duty to recommend it, to the advantage of those who are unaware that there is a “possibility” of obtaining relief from pain.
A famous professor once told me that: “The world’s population can be divided into two: those who suffer from back pain and those that will suffer from back pain”.
There are those people who arediligent and disciplined (like my husband) and who exercise every day (in my husband’s case, for 17 years). Most people are unable to stick to such a regime and Backlife does the work for them, and more important provides the service.
Twice a day I lie on the floor on a thin mattress with my head on a pillow and think pleasant and happy thoughts while the machine works, and I feel great.
But the main thing is the result! It is almost as if something has been opened up. With breathing problems you try to clear the bronchial tubes in order to obtain relief. Backlife performs a similar activity on the back – “it opens and releases”. Even my family has noticed that I am walking with greater easeand freedom, as if something that had hindered my freedom of movement has been eliminated.
I have taken the trouble to write in greater depth since I am so happy with the device, I love it and am attached to it.
It has helped me enormously!
“Knowledge is power”
That is why I wish to pass on this information to others who are suffering from lower back pain, and who doesn’t to one degree or another!
I saw the device for the first time on a TV news broadcast and since then have been recommending it to everyone.
I have actually become emotionally attached to my Backlife, as though it is a friend who is helping me. I also enjoy the efficiency and attitude of your customer service department. Backlife certainly has “parents”.
I definitely agree that you publish any part of this letter that you wish and I repeat -from humanitarian motives only! To help others!
Regards and thanks

I would like to express my gratitude for your unique invention for the relief of back pain.
I have been bedridden for approximately three years due to increasing back pain. I am aged 36.5 and have 60% disability. My problem is severe, 40º, curvature of the spine since birth. Two days after receiving your appliance I was able to sit on a chair for as long as one hour, something I have not been able to do for almost three years – after about a quarter of an hour I would fall from the chair and lay on the floor as a result of my back having seized up.
I have experienced a miracle. I had thought that the rest of my life would be spent in bed. What good luck it was that I saw you and your pilot father on the Friday evening Channel 2 news program approximately two months ago.
I believe that possibly next week I shall be able to start work again. Not full time, only part time, however this is much more than I have been able to do over the past three years.
I still suffer pain in my upper back since the curvature affects its entire length. My lower back is no longer seized up and the paralysis in my legs has disappeared. My ability to exercise and to strengthen the muscles of my upper back has much increased and now only time will tell.
It is worth noting that my orthopedic surgeon believed that my pain was not associated with the curvature but that its source was psychological. I now see that her claim was totally incorrect since had she been right your appliance would not have helped me.
I am not acquainted with people who suffer from back problems but should I meet any I shall recommend your effective appliance, since morphine, epidural injections and anti-depressants which are prescribed in pain clinics are toxins which may not provide a solution and which may even kill. If an alternative for the relief of lower back pain such as yours can be offered, this is surely preferable.
You have saved my life.
With great appreciation, thank you.

Dear Inventors
Backlife is a wonderful invention since it may well eventually replace the chiropractor who charges up to NIS 200 per treatment.
Should the Health Funds discover in time that this device is more effective than chiropractic therapy they may well recommend their patients to purchase it via the Health Fund at a discount.
After consulting with Dr Mirovsky, who diagnosed that my three lower discs are projecting, he recommended that I purchase the device.
After two weeks I have gained the impression that in the long term it will prove effective. At present I am too heavy (89kg) and although I have no trouble walking, climbing stairs is problematic.
I have also spoken with Dr Meni who is also very pleased with the device.
Sincerely

Dear Sir
I spoke with your customer service representative on 2.5.03 who asked me to write to you about my experience with the device.
I am 44 years old. I have been suffering from severe pain in my lower back and pelvic area for several years, pain that has been continuously increasing. Various therapies (physiotherapy, acupuncture, reiki, shiatzu, tuina etc) only gave me slight respite from the pain and my quality of life continued to decline. Every afternoon I would return home from work suffering from terrible pain (especially in the area of vertebra L3) and fearing that should I make one bad move my back would seize up. I would spend the rest of the evening on the sofa attempting various stretching movements and exercises in an effort to ease the pain. Occasionally with success, but recently with almost none.
I had problems bending, straightening up, dressing, showering, cleaning the house and in many other tasks.
I found myself more and more frequently taking anti-inflammatory medication for the pain. I even had to get rid of my new lounge suite since it was too low and I had trouble rising from it because of my pain.
About two and a half weeks ago, after work, I took a few steps in my home and felt a strong stab of pain, so severe that I fell down on all fours. Several long minutes of suffering passed until I was able to stand on my feet.
Several days later I returned home at 22:00hrs in severe pain. I lay down on my bed and after a few minutes discovered that I was unable to change my position or even move an inch. Every movement caused a severe stab of pain in the region of vertebra L3. Only after four and a half hours, at 02:30hrs, did my back calm down a little and I was able to change my position and sleep for a few hours.
I ordered the Backlife device which I received on 1.5.03. After several hours of use I discovered to my great pleasure that the pain had considerably reduced. After a few more sessions I discovered that my body was “celebrating” – the pain had almost completely disappeared (for the first time in several months), my range of motion had greatly increased and I was suddenly able to perform movements that I had been afraid that I would never be able to make again. The back and pelvic pain that I had become accustomed to suffering at the end of each day had become considerably more moderate and occasionally even totally disappeared for days. Life has begun to look up.
As a person who had become accustomed, unwillingly, to live with severe pain around the clock, to “think twice” about every movement involving the back or pelvic area and to fear making too many moves, the change has been dramatic and my quality of life has improved immensely.
Several days after purchasing the appliance I began to talk about your wonder machine and to recommend it heartily to my family, friends, acquaintances and the physiotherapy clinic on my kibbutz. My father also tested the appliance and returned to me the next day, smiling, for another session, claiming that his back pains had greatly reduced.
I would like to thank you personally for your marvelous invention and hope that my letter reaches you.
With thanks and warm wishes
The Pilates Studio
To Backlife
9 September 2003
We wish to remark our satisfaction from your device.
We are the owner of a pilates studio in Denia, Haifa, and we bought the Backlife device in order to assist us during our lessons with clients who suffer from lower back pain.
We use the Backlife as a completion to each lesson, and it supplies the complete effect needed at the releasing and relaxing stage of the lesson.
Furthermore, our trainees themselves (even the ones without back problems) enjoy using Backlife and demand using it over and over again.
We also thank you for your good service.
