Can I lie my whole body weight over to treat my back? Will it leak with my body weight?

i don't know how much you weigh. I have layed on it and also put behind my back when driving. You can always lay on your side and put something against it to hold in place (like a pillow).

In my experience ....no.....might be wise to do that with a somewhat soft base such as a couch or your bed.

I'm over 200lbs and have done the action of (lay on my back full weight) and have had no problems! This is a repeated action as i have had surgery on my back! A very good product!

Yes you can lay on it. I'm 250 lbs and it had no problem. But this only covers my lover back completely. Not big enough for whole back. But works great. Maybe 2?

It will definitely support your body weight. But the most important if it feels comfortable to sit on. I had tried different shapes and kinds before I found the one that works for me.

I would say no to either. It is very thick. I returned mine because It was too rough and woultd work to lay on.. It is well made and the massage is good , if you like a firm massage. I just wanted something to relax my muscles so my spine would go back into alighment. It might possibly work on a chair if you could get it to stay in place. Good luck. I am still looking for the perfect thing for my lower back. I have an old Conair mat that works great, but I have miss placed the power supply moving.

I have used it as an inversion to relieve and stretch back. somewhat hard to adjust for proper balance

You could put something under your shoulders and mid back making sure you are at a slight incline towards the toilet seat. You don't want to be too flat as you don't want to get wet accidentally.

I have used it few times, The only time my back was wet, was when i forgot to wipe it down after filling it up. I had let it overflow

Yes & no is my answer. Depend on where your pain is. It is only 18" in diameter & about 3" thick. It will be very uncomfortable for you to lie in your back in it. Yes, if you want to make it as a pillow.

I have the same problem. I am an "hourglass" shaped woman, 147 lbs, and my butt and legs spill over the edges of the Backjoy posture relief, which doesn't allow me to use it properly. Did you find something that does work for you? I like the concept and think it could help... at a larger size!

No. Once you fit it to your mouth, you can trim the excess towards the back to keep it from being too bulk (just be careful as you don't want to take too much off!)

best to lie on back. It "dips" down in the middle from the weight of your body, just like a hammock you would hang somewhere. so stomach-lying would put you in a "backbend" position.

Yes. Its better for your back. You also can lift more weight with a shrug bar.

I think the height of the back would work for you. It might not reach all the way to the base of your neck, but it would be pretty darn close. I am over 200lbs and have not had a problem with the massage portion, although, I do not use it for more than 15-20 min at a time. Hope this helps.

Yes, you can. It is very versatile and you can sleep with it on your back or side. I would recommend the petite size for women, like the one I have. The full size is more suitable for men.

No, unless you are immobile or upright while sleeping. I have worn them while walking around, though, but Inhave to be cautious not to bend over "unsupported." :) There is an opening on the top, so anything in their might fall out. It holds about an ounce, so if you are a heavy leaker, you might want to check once in awhile to make sure you won't have waterfalls �

I would say no. The heat in it is wonderfully subtle. I suppose you could make it hot enough to act like a pad for back pain, but the entire pad, or your side of it anyway, would all be just as hot.

no. no. you must be lying down on top of the unit. your weight is required for the desired effect. you may need to pad the rotating massage gears with towels if it is to strong.

Yes you can. I weigh 200lbs and stood on it fully closed. It did bow a little but it held. If you fold back one layer back you easily support yourself.
