How does the StandRite-Pro work? 

The patented StandRite-Pro provides a point of contact at the shins to control postural sway, reduce fatigue, and unlock the knees and hips to alleviate lower back pain, strain, and prevent musculoskeletal injuries. When standing, the body experiences postural sway and works hard to maintain balance against gravity, using energy and affecting cognitive focus. Chairs, beds, leaning in doorways, and even movement control sway, but these aren’t effective when standing still. The angled pad creates a positive shin angle, allowing for proper hip hinge movement, reducing torque in the lower back and preventing bending in the spine. As we stand in a comfortable position, we train the body to use proper mechanics and develop muscle memory to stand correctly, strengthening the core and promoting a more dynamic and balanced stance.

How much pressure should I apply to the pad?

Apply gentle pressure, similar to how you would feel when lightly resting against a surface. Depending on the task, you may feel varying levels of pressure on the pad. To use it correctly, approach the support from the front and place one or both feet under the pad so that your shin touches the bottom edge. Then, gently unlock your knee(s) to establish contact. Even a small amount of pressure on the pad will help stabilize your posture, much like when you lean against a wall, sit, or lie down. This slight contact helps prevent unnecessary movement and keeps your body balanced.

How long before I can see results?

Results can vary from person to person, depending on individual fitness, strength, and prior health conditions. Most users experience initial relaxation within 30 seconds, and unlocking the hips begins the process of engaging the core muscles and building strength. Many standing workers already have musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and lack core muscle strength. It may take a couple of weeks before you start feeling the core muscles strengthen. Be patient with your body, this is the time to relax, recover, and regain your balance.

What’s the recommended usage for beginners?

It depends. If you already stand for work, you can begin using ithe StandRite-Pro immediately for instant relief and muscle engagement. For those who sit regularly, begin standing gradually to develop the muscles needed for dynamic standing. By using this product, you’re fundamentally changing the angle of the feet, ankles, calves, thighs, and glutes, and related tendons, muscles, and fascia, from ‘locked knee and hip’ standing to ‘dynamic standing.’ You’ll feel the muscles in your feet, ankles, legs, and thighs engage, similar to beginning an exercise plan. As the body adjusts, you will become stronger. Periodically step away from the pad and roll your feet and ankles, perform toe and heel lifts, and otherwise stretch your legs. Your body will get used to the changes in the new stance and build strength in the weaker areas. The StandRite-Pro is designed to control postural sway and encourage dynamic movement. Once you have built the proper muscles, you can use the StandRite-Pro as long as you want without experiencing awkward posture or musculoskeletal injuries.

I move from place to place, will this work for me?

Absolutely. The StandRite-Pro is designed to control postural sway, which not only reduces tension in your fascia—similar to massage, yoga, and meditation—but also actively strengthens your core muscles. This muscle memory is crucial when you move to places without the StandRite-Pro, ensuring you maintain good posture and core engagement. Additionally, it helps prevent the common issue of walking with locked knees and hips, which leads to discomfort and injury. By using the StandRite-Pro, you’re building a foundation for healthy movement habits, wherever you go. Remember, the risk of musculoskeletal issues increases when we remain locked and static while working, so the StandRite-Pro encourages beneficial movement.

I stand in one place all day, will this work for me?

Yes. Standing with locked hips and improper leaning to control sway is common. The StandRite-Pro provides a stable lean point, freeing your hands to focus on your tasks. The StandRite-Pro alleviates the common fatigue and discomfort associated with static standing. By providing a subtle point of support, it encourages micro-movements and shifts in your weight distribution, preventing stiffness and promoting better circulation. Notably, it also engages your ‘second heart’ – the calf muscles – which are crucial for pumping blood back up to your heart. It engages your core muscles, improving stability and reducing strain on your lower back. Think of it as a way to introduce dynamic movement into your static standing routine, leading to increased comfort and reduced fatigue throughout your workday.

Why haven’t I ever seen something like this on the market?

That’s because Human Balance and Stability Systems took a unique approach. We combined insights from diverse research areas gait, posture, sway, fascia, fitness, evolution, stress, health, lower back pain, and more to pinpoint the ‘root causes’ of standing pain and fatigue. Historically, innovations have focused on treating symptoms, not the underlying issues. Our research revealed that postural sway and locked knees and hips are key culprits. By addressing these directly, and protected by a utility patent, we’ve created a product that provides a genuine solution, not just temporary relief.
