BackPal
BackPal is a medically approved and patented audio posture-correcting device. It is designed to help you develop healthy posture habits. Worn over the shoulders, like the straps of a rucksack, BackPal gives off a high-frequency warning sound when you slouch, sit or stand in a poor body posture position.

How it works
BackPal will instantly beep every time you slouch or keep poor body posture. This simple and effective audio reminder prompts you to instantly correct your posture until you have built a lasting habit of sitting and standing straight.

For best results, wear your BackPal for 10 – 15 minutes two or three times a day (30 minutes in total). Practicing over a period of 4 to 6 weeks is enough to create an enduring healthy body posture habit.

Your outcome depends on consistently and regularly practicing and not on extending the length of time you wear your BackPal.

When to use it
BackPal can be worn when watching TV, working on the computer, reading, writing, having a meal or simply taking a walk. It is also suitable for wearing during the learning stages of mastering various activities, such as dancing, playing the piano, horse-riding, public speaking, etc. when developing the right body posture is as much a new skill as the activity itself.
