MedX Lumbar Extension machine is a unique,
computerized back strengthening machines
that have been widely researched in the university
setting. They were developed by Arthur Jones,
the inventor of Nautilus
exercise
equipment. A simple test procedure shows one's
strength compared to normal individuals. It
also tracks a person's progress during each
visit.
A MedX workout twice a week for several weeks can alleviate back pain and prevent back injuries, and a recent study indicates that the MedX might even prevent back surgery. In the study, 60 patients who were surgical candidates did resistive extension exercise on the MedX. Forty-six of the 60 participants completed the program, with only three of them requiring surgery.
