Targeting the underlying cause of lower back problems—weak and unbalanced stabilizing muscles—Motive Health, Inc., a cutting-edge company in healthcare technology that created the first FDA-approved muscle stimulation device for knee pain, announced the launch of Motive Lower Back, an FDA-approved at-home therapy.
In short, the new device uses Motive’s special NMES (neuromuscular electrical stimulation) technology in 20-minute sessions to target and stimulate important muscles in the lower back and glutes, which help keep the spine stable, to ease tension, improve movement, and build lasting strength.
“Lower back discomfort is one of the most common and limiting musculoskeletal conditions we see,” stated Dr. Struan Coleman, MD, Ph.D., Sports Medicine Surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery and Co-Founder of Motive Health. “By strengthening the deep muscles that support the spine, Motive Lower Back offers a safe, easy method to reduce discomfort and stiffness and return to an active lifestyle.”
Focusing on the Root Cause Rather Than Just the Symptoms
Nearly 90% of adults have back pain, and nearly half of them experience it every week. 1 Instead of addressing the underlying muscle weakness that causes recurrent back problems, the majority of short fixes, such as heat packs or pharmaceuticals, only mask symptoms. By employing a root-cause strategy and mild electrical stimulation, Motive Lower Back helps users regain their range of motion by relaxing tense muscles and strengthening deep stabilizers.
Fast Relief. Lasting Stability.
Motive Lower Back offers a unique combination of:
- Quick therapy sessions that fit easily into daily routine
- Clinically validated NMES technology that improves muscle performance and recovery
- Non-invasive, drug-free relief from tension, tightness, and stiffness
- FDA-cleared design, developed with input from physicians, physical therapists, and medical experts
“Our mission is to help people move better and feel stronger,” stated Rob Morocco, President and CEO of Motive Health. “With Motive Lower Back, we’re empowering anyone dealing with everyday discomfort and stiffness or hoping to improve overall muscle performance to take recovery into their hands safely, effectively, and confidently.”
Expanding on Motive’s Track Record of Innovation
The new lower back gadget adds to Motive’s line of muscle-strengthening therapy options, which were created to address the most prevalent causes of joint problems and restricted mobility after the success of Motive Knee. When combined, they offer a comprehensive strategy for mobility and recuperation, assisting individuals of all fitness levels in regaining and sustaining their optimum active lifestyles.
