THE PORTABLE MITZVAH BACK SUPPORTS

M. Cohen-Nehemia designed the portable Mitzvah Back Supports to help maintain healthy posture while sitting in a variety of seats and chairs. These are especially useful for persons with neck and back problems and for preventative purposes.

The Mitzvah Back Supports are light weight and easily transportable. They can be used in cars, air planes, office, schools, theaters, at home and almost anywhere.

They improve the support of many types of chairs including soft furniture, couches, high-back chairs and bucket seats. When placed on the seat and leaned against the back of the chair ,the back supports serve to alter the structure of the seat by filling the hollows in the seat and back of the chair. They provide the proper support for the back, by preventing the chest from collapsing and allowing freedom of neck motion. Since the back supports are flat padded boards, they encourage one to sit on the sitting bones rather on the bones of the lower back, tailbone or thighs. Slouching is reduced or eliminated and freedom of movement is encouraged. The body is continually allowed to realign and balance with gravity while correcting itself and releasing tension and stress .
