Login for More InformationThis project aims to develop a device that simultaneously alleviates myofascial pain and corrects kyphotic posture, offering a solution for individuals suffering from upper and middle back discomfort.
Project Overview
Back pain and poor posture are common issues, with thoracic kyphosis affecting 35% of adults aged 20 to 64. Current solutions focus on either myofascial pain relief or posture correction, but not both. Our goal is to develop a device that combines deep tissue massage with posture correction techniques. This device will target key muscle groups, improve blood flow, and promote proper spinal alignment, providing a more comprehensive solution for back pain management.
