Leading back care retailer offers over 300 specialty products

Fayette County is about to take a major step forward when it comes to relieving back, neck, and sleep-related discomfort with the opening of a new Relax The Back specialty store, located at 2705 Hwy 54, Suite 1, in Peachtree City.

Franchise owner Mark and Tara Briggs will join over 100 other franchised Relax The Back locations throughout North America as the company continues expanding as the nation’s leading back and neck care retailer.

Like its successful counterparts around the country, the Peachtree City Relax The Back store offers the widest range of innovative back, neck, and sleep-related products available as well as highly personalized service designed to meet the individual needs of every client.

Their offerings include more than 300 unique products including ergonomic chairs, Tempur-pedic mattresses and pillows, back and neck supports, massage chairs, innovative AirPack backpacks for kids, exercise items, and even their famous Zero Gravity recliners which put you in the same stress free position that the astronauts are in at take-off.

Commenting on the new opening, Mark Briggs noted, “We will offer our customers the finest products and most individualized service possible. We look forward to being a vital member of the local business community, as well as improving the health and wellness of the clients we serve.”

Relax The Back was established as a one-stop bastions of premier-quality health products and on-site expertise for people seeking relief from, and prevention of, back and neck pain.

The company’s diverse array of products appeal to consumers of virtually all ages and interests – from school kids hauling heavy backpacks, to office workers hunched over their desks all day, to seniors finding comfortable mobility increasingly elusive.

Stress, poor posture, old mattresses, long commutes, and poorly designed office chairs contribute heavily to the epidemic-like back ailments people face every day.

Consider these alarming stats from the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research, US Dept. of Health and Human Services Government Guidelines (applying to the U.S. population only):

• 80 percent of Americans will suffer from a significant episode of back pain at some time in their lives

• Among working age people in the US, 50 percent admit to back symptoms each year

• Back pain is the most common cause for disability in persons under age 45

• At any given time, one percent of the population is chronically disabled and another one percent is temporarily disabled due to back problems

• Back and neck pain is the number one modern day epidemic that is non-life threatening

Relax The Back is the leading back-care specialty store in the country.

Based in Southern California, the company operates over 100 franchise and independently owned retail locations throughout North America.
