In today's high stress world, sitting at a desk hunched over a computer or working manual labor for hours at a time is the norm for millions of people across the globe. Back problems result from ergonomically unnatural working positions, and deeper health issues are usually not far behind.
One of the main issues which stem from improper upper body posture is hypertension in the shoulders and upper back, causing headaches, loss of energy, and even compromised digestion.
Derek Nolt experienced first-hand the consequences of poor posture. Having suffered a car accident and injuries including a broken collar bone, his job as a construction worker only exacerbated his mounting upper body issues.
"Having physiotherapy, massage therapy or other various forms of treatment helped me with these ailments but having something that I could easily use on a daily basis really made a difference," says Nolt. "That was the reasoning behind developing Bladeflex."
Bladeflex is a fully adjustable device which features extendable back straps that allow the user to perform regular movements while encouraging them to return to correct posture. The back of Bladeflexhas 2 circular blade disks connected with a dual hinge that anchors the device to the shoulder blades, and doubles as spring housing for the retractable straps. The torque clips are fully adjustable, allowing the user to adjust the level of resistance until they can maintain proper posture on their own.
In order to take Bladeflex into mass production, Nolt and his team first need to fund the high cost of mold creation. 10 individual components are required, each needing to be CNC machined for molding. To offset some of the costs of this step, Nolt has taken Bladeflex to the pages of Kickstarter where he seeks backers to help him roll it out to a worldwide audience.
