Dear Bill,
On behalf of the Doctors of the Florida Chiropractic Association Sports Injury Council, I would like to thank you for providing us with the Back Revolution.
I have used many of your competitor’s equipment and have found them uncomfortable and unsteady. The Back Revolution is head and shoulders above all the similar products on the market. I was extremely impressed with the stability and quality of craftsmanship of the Back Revolution.
The Back Revolution is one of our most used pieces of equipment at athletic events. Compressive forces placed upon the lumbosacral region are extremely high in many of the events we cover. The Back Revolution gives the athlete a quick, controlled way to decompress this area between play. I have also found the Back Revolution extremely useful in a lumbosacral strengthening program to include hyperextension, rotation and crunches for affordable for a patient to use in there home as well. It supports the pelvis and legs and allows for proper biomechanics much better than hyperextension benches found in many gyms.
Once again, thank you for your support. You have developed a quality product that has filled a void in the management of low back pain in athletes and non-athletes alike.
Sincerely,
Patrick J. Helma, D.C., C.C.S.P.

Dear Mr. Kaiser:
This very belated letter is to let you know that the Back Revolution has been a very welcome addition to our small low-tech rehab room in the Whittier Chiropractic Health Center.
The best describe the benefits of this machine I would like to relay to you a story. Due tot he cutbacks in support staff on campus I am very often working in my office on the weekend trying to catch up on the mounds of paper work that pile up while I am seeing to the needs of our patients and interns during the week.
On one particular Saturday I came into my office which is near our rehab room and within a minute one of our on-campus security officers came around the corner. I was quite surprised because there was no reason for anyone to be in the Health Center on the weekend. The sheepish grin o the officers face told me that something was “up”.
Upon questioning him I discovered that he had been in the Rehab room “hanging” on the Back Revolution! He admitted that when he could not get into the clinic on a regular basis he often took his breaks on the weekend in the Health Center to utilize the Back Revolution. Having suffered from psoriatic arthritis for over 20 years he has found the Back Revolution to be the one form of therapy that has given him the most relief from his pain and muscle spasm.
As his story is dramatic I have asked this patient to write a letter to you also with his endorsement of the Back Revolution and as you will note he is so impressed with this anti-gravity device he is interested in purchasing one himself so that he does not have to schedule appointments in the Health Center or “hang” during his breaks at work.
This is just one success story from one patient with the Back Revolution but I think it very well illustrates the benefits of your anti-gravity device.
My best wishes to you and sincere apologies for the belatedness of this letter,
Sheila A. Hanes, D.C.

Dear Bill:
Thank you so much for providing me with a Back Revolution with the new upgraded support bars. I have one of each now and by far the vast majority of patients exercising on this piece of equipment prefer the use of your new upgraded version. It makes them feel much more confident in being able to get on and off the machine safely and I am certain that it is also much safer since the time it takes for patients to reach the handles is much reduced.
Thank you again for your thoughtfulness and consideration in making this available and be certain that it is being put to good use. Thank you also for providing me with a copy of Frank Zane’s Text which I have found very enjoyable reading.
Please keep me posted regarding any changes and let me know if I can be of any service regarding suggestions for design change.
Best wishes as always,
David E. Stude, M.S., D.C.

“Prior to my 4:00 am workouts, I regularly use The Back Revolution which helps to take pressure off of my lower back, enabling me to begin exercising more effectively. The Back Revolution has become an indispensable piece of equipment in my own gym.”
