There was an article in MPI's Dynamic Chiropractic, January 15, 1993 edition that should interest you. My training is as a Naprapath, which is based upon injured, therefore tight, connective tissue. Therefore, I feel that a modality such as your BodyBridge has great merit.
I have been using a BodyBridge since September of 1992 and consider it to be a formidable weapon in the battle for good health. I definitely consider it is something that is much more than a backache suppressor.
My advice, if you'll allow me, is that you recommend that anyone using the BodyBridge take it easy and not to try to straighten themselves out in too short a period of time. It took many years for a body to tighten and cause symptoms and it will take a long time to reverse the symptoms. Use the BodyBridge to see the change in body mechanics it can make.

I am taking a few minutes to respond to you in regard
to the BodyBridge table I received months ago. The service was very courteous
and I received my order in less than a week - maybe it was four days! The
product is well designed and is made of top quality materials and is well
crafted. The quality of the vinyl is especially noticeable and is professionally
mounted. It should last for many years.
I ordered the BodyBridge to help increase my back and
shoulder flexibility due to injury I suffered in a car accident years ago.
I have some residual nerve damage in my arm which causes neck and shoulder
pain. I missed doing the back bridges I had done in gymnastics before my
injury. Since I do yoga, I've wanted something to help my back flexibility
and BodyBridge is something I'm still using, unlike other health devices
which one can lose interest in after a while, and is working for me.
It is easy: no setup involved. I hop on it and use it
both lying on my stomach and on my back. I like the latter position better
because it stretches my back, but lying on my stomach can be relaxing and
I have used it to meditate, very comfortable. It relieves tension and eases
pain for me.
I do not use it strenuously, just in my spare time, once
a day or so sometimes for as little as ten or fifteen minutes lying on
my back. I anticipate gradual improvement of my back and shoulder flexibility.
To increase the stretch I raise the table a bit to make for a more acute
angle. The rubber feet hold it in place on the rug.
So congratulations on a great product. I, for one, am
grateful you are making the BodyBridge. It is well worth the investment.
I am going to go use my BodyBridge now!

I am a massage therapist who loves the BodyBridge. I use
it often during very stressful days, hardworking days, and whenever I feel
the need to relax.
My husband, retired after 21+ years in the Navy, is prone
to back spasms caused by disk compression in his spine. He uses the BodyBridge
to provide a gentle form of traction that helps him stay mobile.
I'm ready to incorporate the BodyBridge in my practice
but it hasn't made it out of my home yet. We LOVE it. I'm so glad we purchased
it. I may have to get another for work!
