Relieve Joint & Back Pain & Optimise Your Performance

Athletes from most sports codes suffer from lower back pain due to rigorous training and intensive top level competition. Natures Support have developed a back belt that will relieve lower back pain and joint pain and allow athletes to train harder and optimise their performance.

The Nature’s Support waist belt is the only product in the market that will provide real relief to lower and middle back discomfort. This is achieved by the use of a hollow fibre fur product, because this unique fibre is hollow it can breathe and provide thermal stability to the area of the back where it is positioned. 

 

Thermal stability promotes greater blood circulation and nerve relief allowing tired and strained muscles to relax and rejuvenate. The Belt is comfortable and easy to adjust for sitting, driving, most sports activities or whatever position you find yourself in that usually causes the discomfort or pain.

The thermal stability of the hollow fibre prevents the belt from generating too little or too much heat, maintaining a constant temperature several degrees warmer than the skin surface. It helps prevent perspiration and condensation building up on the skin, the hollow fibre allows for the surface moisture to evaporate away. 


 

What is the difference between the Athletic - Sports Back Belt and the Therapeutic - Lifestyle Back Belt?

  • The Athletic/Sports Back Belt has an extra valcro fastening for a firmer fit which is required for those engaging in high energy activities such as professional athletes or those who participate in regular training schedules.
  • The Lifestyle/Therapeutic Back Belts provide for a more comfortable fit for people who have normal to moderate levels of activity.  It is also more comfortable for those who may spend part of their day sitting.
  • The majority of people would best suit our Lifestyle/Therapeutic belt.
  • Both types of Back Belt provide the same quality of pain relief and support to the wearer.

Testimonial by Mahé Drysdale, World Single Scull Rowing Champion

"Hi my name is Mahé Drysdale, current World Single Scull Rowing Champion.

In 2010 my rowing career was in doubt, I had a disc injury that contributed to the onset of Osteoarthritis

I tried numerous medications and treatment programs but none of these provided the ongoing support and pain relief I needed.

Around this time, Colin Cox, a pioneer in the New Zealand fur fibre industry contacted me. Colin suggested I try a natural fur/fibre belt product he was trialing for elderly patients with back pain.

After testing the prototype Colin had developed, I suggested a few small modifications and the end result was a belt that I could wear virtually all the time. I started wearing it during training and in competitions. The relief and support was amazing and it has enabled me to continue with my career. It has been with me on a daily basis since and played a part in helping me achieve the results I have over the past few years. Without it I doubt I would have achieved my recent world championship win.

I wear the belt everytime I’m training or competing and when my back is feeling sore,tight or stiff

It’s comfortable and fits perfectly under my clothing. I’ve found it easy to wash and dry.

If you have any lower back discomfort from pain and fatigue I highly recommend trying this Natures Support product as it has given me a huge amount of relief. I’m now looking forward to continuing my career into the next world championships and Olympics in Rio.

Try it, you won’t believe the relief. I’ve attached a short video which explains the science and natural attributes of this amazing product. Good luck in your chosen sport."
