  • Fixed my costochondritis overnight!
I love this product. I love the way Steve August (the inventor) figured out and explains costochondritis - it makes sense. It's about the ribs, not inflammation or nerve pain. I developed costo in 2006 after being prescribed lisinopril, which caused severe coughing, for months. This, in turn, froze up my back ribs and ligaments. At the beginning, my severe chest pain and trouble breathing led to several ER trips in an ambulance, siren on, taking corners on rails. But after all the doctors had done all their cardiac and lung tests, and found nothing, they simply sent me home, unable to explain my pain, and worse, unwilling to help me manage it. I suffered untreated for 2 years when we moved to a new state and I found a pain doctor there who explained I had costochondritis and did prescribe for me. The pain meds were the only thing that gave me any kind of relief. Tylenol didn't work, nor Advil. Over the next 13 years (15 years total), I've developed kidney failure, lung failure, diabetes I, epilepsy and a host of other complex and rare medical conditions. I've attributed so much of my immobility and pain moving to simply being on dialysis. I've attributed my shortness of breath to my lung problems. Enter the Backpod. I ordered this because I'm having a terrible time right now getting pain meds sorted out and I've come to the conclusion that the doctors are not going to help me. I have to help myself. So I reopened my research into this condition. As it turns out, the Backpod now exists - which was not true when I first got costo. This device works to open up spaces between your ribs and move the ligaments between them. I used it for 2 minutes on each side the first night I got it. The next morning I woke up pain-free. It was UNREAL! I haven't had a pain-free morning in over 15 years. I wake up every morning reaching out for my oxys, because I know I need them. My AM pain is always that bad. It's now Day 6 of using the Backpod, plus I've started physical therapy in hopes that the PTs can help me maximize my results and optimize my therapy, which they have so far been very good at. In just 6 days - still NO PAIN!! That first morning I woke up, I took a shower and realized I had so much more REACH in both shoulders, and the same when I was toweling off. So I did some shoulder rolls and I could just hear my upper rib bones crackling right down from the top to the bottom, so I could tell they were loosening up. It felt great! Costo is a horrible condition to try to live with. It limits you in so many ways - mobility, ability to do chores, cook, shop, spend time with loved ones, go out, sit up for any lengths of time - and for me, I'm realizing all of this disability was due to the costo, not my kidneys or lungs. I thought all this time I was just stuck with it. The Backpod is super easy to use. You just lay down on it. You can put it behind you while you lean back on a stack of pillows and watch TV in bed. Then you can move it around - up, down, more to the middle, wherever it feels the best is probably where you need it most. It doesn't require any batteries or charging, and only very little maintenance. My puppy did try to chew on it, but I caught him in time. The big dog just licks it. I don't mind, as long as they don't destroy the thing. Being on disability, a $68.00 cost is high for me, but I decided to go for it and see if I can get myself into a position to start tapering off my pain meds under medical supervision. I had my first narcotic free day yesterday, and I was shocked. I didn't even think about taking any meds. I would so much rather invest this money here and stop having to go to a pain doctor monthly, and stop having my energy and ability to focus be affected by my oxys than stay on pain meds and not have a solution. I never thought I'd ever get better from anything again - all of my medical issues are chronic, and some degenerative. But this one, I cured. I did it by myself, with the help of Steve August, and I did it in a matter of days, after 15 years of hell. If you're in hell from costo, the Backpod is your way out!!! I only wish Steve August's information would infiltrate the medical community here in the US. Doctors here are so stubborn about insisting on what they heard once upon a. time, and they don't do much research as they continue to treat you to see if they can find you a cure. We have to heal ourselves. Thank you to Steve August for paving the way for those of us with costochondritis to do that!! ... show more

  • Incredible device!
I've had this thing for almost 8 years and it's been my go to every time my crappy posture causes upper and mid back pain and strain. It's like instant relief and if you continue to use it as recommended, you'll see a significant improvement in your well being with soooo much less pain, less muscle tension, improved posture-- I have 3 herniated discs in my thoracic spine and having this nifty device in my life makes living with this condition so much easier, significantly less painful and I'm certain it has helped the issue from progressing to something much worse. You just need to remember to stick with it! I'm guilty of stashing it under my couch and coming back to it when my upper back is driving me nuts.. don't be like me, stay dedicated! ... show more

  • Buy it!!!!
Item came quickly, it’s a nice size slightly larger than the average hand size. I have right side thoracic scoliosis and left lumbar compensatory scoliosis, my left shoulder is dropped and I lean to the left so my C7-T1 junction is always inflamed because my cervical spine is also left leaning and compressing nerves, so bad it races my heart, I have developed a dowager’s hump (neck hump) there is a nervy spot on the left side where my shoulder sits lower. I have a $6,000 massage chair, massage gun, foam roller, back stretcher, I get deep tissue massages and see a chiropractor twice a week ( joint chiropractor is affordable) aside from the relief I feel from the chiropractor getting T3 pushed back into place and opening up my chest nothing at home worked. I received it this afternoon and I opened it up read the pamphlet and laid on my Yoga mat and positioned it in place, prior to laying on my mat my trapezius muscles were on 🔥 I laid on the pod without pillows and a pad and I felt completely comfortable and I felt the muscles releasing I got up and felt amazing, I started messing around with my phone and looking down and tension creeped in again, I immediately got on my Yoga mat and turned the pod sideways for a deeper stretch and I felt the tension release again, I have been eyeing this for over a year and making every excuse as to why I shouldn’t buy it smh, I wasted precious time when I could have just bought it and tried it. Pain relief is essential, my pain is from tight muscles and this pod gets right into the thoracic curve like no other device I currently own and I have at least 20 different devices from expensive to non expensive. This will be my daily routine and I will travel with it. ... show more
