The pain didn't start overnight.It built up —  one hour of sitting at a time.

Your spine is a hydraulic system. Sit too long, and the water-based discs between your vertebrae compress, dehydrate, and lose height.

First it's stiffness in the morning. Then a dull ache by 3 pm. Then it's chronic — and you accept that this is just what getting older feels like.

It isn't. It's what sitting does. And it's reversible.

You've spent thousands treating the pain. None addressed why it keeps coming back.

Ergonomic chairs — better posture while sitting, still sitting

Standing desks — upright compression instead of seated compression

Chiropractic visits — temporary adjustment, same daily damage

Massage guns — surface-level tension relief, root cause unchanged

Posture correctors — force the shape, don't rebuild it

Memory foam cushions — soften the seat, deepen the habit

None of them reverse the cause. They just manage the pain.

Here's the secret:

To stop the pain, you have to reverse the cause. The only posture that does? Lying face-down.

It's been part of physical therapy since the 1950s. And it's the only everyday posture that biomechanically reverses the damage of sitting.

What happens when you reverse the compresion.

Proning isn't just stretching. It's a mechanical reset.

SPINE

Your vertebrae decompress.

After hours of forward compression, lying prone gently reverses the curve. Space opens between discs. Pressure drops. The low-back pain starts to ease.

BREATH

Your diaphragm opens.

Sitting compresses the chest and forces shallow breathing. Prone positioning opens the ribcage from below. Deeper breaths. More oxygen. The tension in your chest releases.

NERVOUS SYSTEM

Your stress response quiets.

Deep diaphragmatic breathing shifts your body from stress mode to rest mode. Heart rate slows. Cortisol drops. The anxious tension you carry starts to dissolve.

POSTURE

Your body relearns neutral.

Over time, lying in proper alignment teaches your nervous system what a pain-free spine feels like. The posture improvements carry into your waking hours.

Clinics have used this to treat back pain for 70 years. You've just never had access.

In 1956, physiotherapist Robin McKenzie discovered that patients with severe back pain were recovering — by lying face-down. Extending the spine. Reversing the compression that sitting caused.

He formalized it into the McKenzie Method. It's now taught in physical therapy programs worldwide and practiced in over 100,000 clinics.

The method addresses the pain at its source. The problem, for 70 years, has been access. You had to visit a clinic. Now you don't.

"Can't I just lie on the floor?"

Technically, yes.

Functionally, no.

❌ On the Floor

Your face presses into the ground. Your neck rotates. Your shoulders collapse. After 3 minutes, you're uncomfortable. After 10, you've stopped.

✅ On The  Pronus™

Your head rests in neutral. Your chest has space. Your lumbar curve is supported. You can stay for 30 minutes, an hour, the length of a meeting.

Questions?

Can I pay with HSA / FSA? +

Yes. At checkout, selectTruemed — Pay with HSA/FSA. Truemed verifies your eligibility, issues the required Letter of Medical Necessity automatically, and routes the charge to your HSA or FSA card. Most customers save 22–37% depending on tax bracket — effective price ranges from $132 to $163. No prescription needed. No paperwork on your end.

Is this just an expensive pillow? +

No. A cushion softens the surface. The Pronus™ is a device engineered for a specific body position — prone spinal decompression. It supports your head, chest, and lumbar simultaneously at calibrated angles. It's closer to a clinical device than a pillow.

Do I need this if I don't have back pain yet? +

80% of adults will experience back pain. Prone positioning is used as both a recovery and a preventive protocol. If you sit more than 4 hours a day, your discs are compressing whether you feel it yet or not.

How is this different from stretching or yoga? +

Stretching releases muscle tension. Yoga combines mobility and breathwork. Prone positioning is a passive spinal decompression protocol — it reverses disc compression without effort. Different mechanism, different result.

Is there research behind prone positioning? +

Yes. It's a cornerstone of the McKenzie Method — one of the most studied physical therapy frameworks in the world, practiced in 100,000+ clinics globally.

Who shouldn't use prone positioning? +

People in later stages of pregnancy, people recovering from chest or abdominal surgery, and anyone with specific medical restrictions on prone posture should consult their physician before use. For most people who sit for a living, the position is safe and common.

How do I know if it's working for me? +

People describe it differently. Some notice feeling calmer within the first session. Some notice breathing more deeply. Some notice it over the course of a few weeks as something that just fits into their day. We recommend using it for at least three weeks before deciding. If it's not for you, return it — we offer a 30-day refund.

How long should I use it each day? +

10–20 minutes is the clinical minimum. Most customers use it for 30–60 minutes while reading, working, or scrolling — it becomes part of the routine, not a separate task.
