Back pain is the #1 cause of disability globally and it doesn't need to be.

We are on a mission to end back pain through creating the Limber Life;

1. A new way of living and working where movement happens without conscious effort.
2. Teaching people the skills to prevent and reduce pain when it arrives.

We are creating a new way of living, the Limber Life.

We have started by creating what UC Berkeley professors are calling " The world's healthiest desks" bringing movement to a whole new level at work. Creating courses to make floor postures common place and democratise ergonomics plus a resource centre to help people with back pain. Sign up to our monhtly newsletter here.

Founded by Physiotherapist Bart de Vries in 2017, Limber is based in Wellington, New Zealand, where our products are made.

Experiencing back pain from the age of 12 and returning after shifting to a desk based role in his late 20's Bart could not find anything that would let him move as much as he wanted to while working, so put together a team and started designing what is now called the world's healthiest desk.

We spent 5 years developing our first desks and now are up to our 26th version of the Petal and Linear desks. Over the first lock down helping people set up their home workspaces, we designed the Mini Dynamic Desk and then last year launched our 'working from the floor course' and partnered with Hawkes Bay matt and cushion company Tribe to create the ultimate floor to standing workspace environments.

Limber products are now available throughout New Zealand and Australia and we can ship internationally on request.

Here are some stats and facts about back pain.

1. Back pain is the #1 cause of disability globally
2. 1 in 6 people have back problems
3. 80% of people experience back pain during their lifetime.
4. Back problems are the 2nd most common reason people go to their GP and one of the top 5 reasons people present to ED
5. back paiin is the most common health reason for middle-aged Australians to retire early
6. Back problems are the #1 cause of lost productivity and income poverty

Our first goal is to halve back pain disability by 2050 through creating the Limber Life - a new way of living and working where movement happens without conscious effort and people have the skills to prevent and minimise pain when it arrives.

• Products that liberate movement
• Skills that prevent back pain
• Knowledge that improves recovery
• A new way of living, the Limber Life

Lumbar extension.

For those that are pain free, lumbar extension is the single most powerful low dose movement people can do to reduce the risk and potential severity of back pain.

Studies have shown in army and health care populations that completing a single back extension after heavy lifting, prolonged sitting and at the start of team meetings can dramatically reduce the risk of back pain and the severity of back pain if someone does experience it.

The ratio between minutes spent in flexion vs extension, the amount of forward bending or lifting repetition are both risk factors for low back pain.

Extension is often a movement that is limited in people who have had back pain and restoring this range of motion can have benefits to reducing low back pain risk.
