Potential
Relax
The Back offers an exciting and rewarding opportunity to operate a
unique business while helping individuals improve the quality of their
lives by relieving pain and discomfort from back and posture related
issues.
Over the last
twenty years, we've experienced an epidemic of back problems in
this country. In fact, over 200 million workdays per year are lost
due to back problems. There are on average 75 million chronic backache
sufferers in the U.S. alone. Statistics show that over 80% of the
population will have significant back pain at some time in their
lives with the majority having recurring painful episodes.
The health care
industry's response to Relax The Back has been vigorous. By continuing
to open franchise stores in highly visible locations near major
shopping malls, the company continues to maintain a unique position
as the nation's largest specialty retailer of ergonomic and back
care products.
