Decompress your spine, stretch your back, and tone your abs all in one with this Brookstone back stretcher and ab trainer. The Brookstone device excels at lengthening your body: as you lean backward on the stretcher, it slowly expands your discs, helping reduce backaches, realign your spine, and improve your posture. 
The Brookstone device stretches your back and exercises your abs simultaneously. | However, as you gently lower yourself back down, you'll also challenge your abs, helping you firm up your stomach muscles. Combine the features and you have a terrific device for people who want to work their core and improve their flexibility at the same time. The chair is comfortable and supportive, with soft rolls of foam and rubber that cradle your back and spine while providing the firm support you need to relax comfortably. The chair also protects your neck during ab exercises, with a head support that keeps your upper body in a position that it won't strain your spine--unlike with traditional crunches. Perhaps best of all, the device is small enough to fit in your closet when not in use. The back stretcher/ab trainer carries Brookstone's one-year warranty. About Brookstone
Brookstone introduced itself to the world in a small classified ad selling "hard-to-find tools" in Popular Mechanics magazine in 1965. The first catalog consisted of 24 black-and-white pages, with detailed, no-nonsense information on features, capabilities, measurements, materials, and anything else that would help the customer with his or her buying decision. As Brookstone's catalog success grew, its operations expanded. Brookstone opened its first retail store in 1973 in Peterborough, New Hampshire, where it quickly developed an unsolicited walk-in trade. Today, Brookstone manages operations through its headquarters in Merrimack, New Hampshire, and runs more than 300 retail stores throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Originally a catalog company, Brookstone presently operates a multifaceted direct-marketing business that includes catalogs, e-mail, and affiliate marketing, and an online site offering hundreds more products than are available in its retail and airport stores. |
