The unique self-inflation feature allows you to easily adjust the level of support it provides. The ‘active’ support of the bodybolster offers movement and strengthens your torso muscles which make it a great addition to any office worker. The prolonged periods of static position is unnatural for the human body. It can also be used as your portable gym.
