How To Use
HOW TO USE THE ENERGYZER BACKREST™ & WHAT TO EXPECT
To receive the most comfort and energy from the Energyzer Backrest™
Follow these instructions:
On Vehicle Seatbacks:
1. Deflate lumbar supports in vehicle seats. (they reduce the flow of energy! And are less comfortable than the Energyzer Backrest™)
2. Position the seat back 2-10 degrees backward.
3. Install the Energyzer Backrest™ against vehicle seat backs with side bolster airbags using ONLY vertical straps. Horizontal straps may interfere with deployment of side bolster air bags. USE HORIZONTAL STRAPS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
4. Install the Energyzer Backrest™ against vehicle seats without side bolster airbags, use both vertical and horizontal straps. Tighten straps to hold backrest in place and secure using Velcro ends.
5. Sit in the seat and move it forward so you can reach the steering wheel without moving your shoulders forward. Failure to properly position yourself in the seat will cause you to lean forward and curve your back in a ‘C’ shape which will put pressure on your lumbar area and against lumbar area curve of the Energyzer Backrest™ and thus cause discomfort. Proper posture is essential for the Energyzer Backrest™ to work optimally to increase comfort and energize your body.
6. Sit in the seat and adjust the position of the Energyzer Backrest™ vertically so that it is comfortable to you.
7. Assume good posture (shoulders back, chest out, stomach in) and inflate/deflate bladder using the rubber bulb to adjust Energyzer Backrest™ horizontally to your comfort. The goal is to position your spine in the optimum gentle “S” curve in a perfect posture and energyzing curvature. Only small adjustments of the bulb can make a noticeable difference in your comfort.
8. When you feel uniform support along the entire length of the backrest you will know you have it properly adjusted.
9. Adjust the Backrest during use to your comfort. Most people will feel for the first time unique, firm yet comfortable back support that promotes proper posture, relives back stress and a surge of energy. Good posture corrects many back discomfort problems. It facilitates the flow of energy throughout your body
10. While using the Energyzer Backrest™, maintain proper posture. Most people have poor posture and it may take days or even up to a month, to re-program your body to proper posture. This may take some re-conditioning of old bad habits.
Note: Physical therapists and chiropractors recommend sitting no longer than 1 hour. Get up and move around, stretch etc. to restore bodily functions.
On All Other Seatbacks:
1. Install the Energyzer Backrest™ against the seatback with both vertical and horizontal straps. Tighten straps to hold backrest in place and secure using Velcro ends.
2. Sit in the seat and adjust the position of the Energyzer Backrest™ vertically so that it is comfortable to you.
3. Assume good posture (shoulders back, chest out, stomach in) and inflate/deflate bladder using the rubber bulb to adjust Energyzer Backrest™ horizontally to your comfort. The goal is to position your spine in the optimum gentle “S” curve in a perfect posture and energyzing curvature. Only small adjustments can make a noticeable difference in your comfort.

6. While using the Energyzer Backrest™ maintain proper posture. Most people have poor posture and it may take days or even up to a month, to re-program your body to proper posture. This may take some re-conditioning of old bad habits. Sit close enough to your work space so you are not reaching for the keyboard or items on your desktop. Do not lean forward and create a “C” shaped spine which impedes the flow of energy along the spine, puts pressure on the lumbar area and creates discomfort and fatigue.
Note: Physical therapists and chiropractors recommend sitting no longer than 1 hour. Get up and move around, stretch etc. to restore bodily functions.
I Didn’t Have Back Pain Sitting In My Office Chair…
I suffer from spinal stenosis and when I use the Energyzer Backrest I didn’t have back pain sitting in my office chair. I do a lot of sitting at my desk on my phone and on the computer and using this back rest my posture is improved and I feel better.
Now I Want To Sit In My Chair!
“Whether at work or while travelling I find myself sitting a lot and usually squirm around trying to find comfortable positions. This Energyzer Backrest has made my office chair, my car seat, and even my plane seat more comfortable. Now I want to sit in my chair and enjoy the comfort it gives.
This Backrest Does It All…
Firm but comfortable support. My car lumbar is not comfortable so I solved that problem by using rolled-up towel in my back. However, this backrest does it all – good anatomical alignment options that just work!
