Thoracic Extension Rack - The perfect posture tool

Poor posture is becoming a real problem in modern day life, and elite athletes are certainly not exempt from the related issues that postural changes can cause. Without the correct amount of thoracic extension, the spine is restricted, ultimately contributing to injuries and areas of greater stress. Even the accumulative effects of sitting poorly, or some would say sitting at all, can contribute to postural related injuries, and often effect the efficiency of the way the body responds to work loads.

The racks shape is designed to reverse the poor postures we find ourselves in from day to day. These postures are worsened when we drive the car, sit at the computer, and lounge around at home.

What does it do?

  • Stretches the anterior muscles of the chest and shoulders, that are deemed short and often inflexible due to poor posture
  • Mobilises the thoracic spine, hence increasing your ability to extend through this crucial area.
  • Helps to increase flexibility in the pelvic region, allowing anterior rotation. This improves the upper body’s ability to achieve a mechanically efficient posture.

For the Therapist

The T-rack can be used as a clinical treatment device, and we have sold hundreds to many happy Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, and Chiropractors throughout Australia & New Zealand.

Simply lay your client on the T-rack and it will do much of the work for you. While the client is laying on the T-rack, in this unique position, you can do fantastic work through the pectorals, anterior shoulder musculature and abdominal region, increasing extension, and rotation of the thoracic spine. Treatment of these muscle groups at length, will fast track the rate of improved flexibility.
