Enhanced Lumbar support ...

The 'SCHUKRA' adjustable lumbar for enhanced lumbar support. The hand wheel adjusts for each individual - supporting the pelvis, the base of the spine and every single vertebrae. The MVP has natural lumbar support built into the back foam, and is significantly greater than our competitors; while the 'SCHUKRA' lumbar adds a dramatic increase in lumbar support.

The 'SCHUKRA' mechanism is built directly into car and truck seats. Schukra lumbar supports have now become standard original equipment in some of the world's finest automobiles, including Porsche, BMW, Ford, GM (Suburban),and Chrysler. In addition, many of the world's airlines have installed the Schukra Lumbar Supports into the seating of first and business class seating sections.

Schukra is for the: MVP & All Star chairs only

The Need for a Lumbar Support Unit ... The Stress Epidemic • 75-90% of visits to primary care physicians are for stress related problems.
• 89% of adults describe experiencing "high levels of stress".

The American Institute of Stress .... Stress Reduction "Historical and current research, documents the diverse physiological effects of massage. When muscles are loose and circulation is sufficient, the result is better health and less chance of injury or dysfunction."

Canadian Massage Therapist Alliance...The Need for Lumbar Support "Eight out of ten people will experience back pain some time in their lives. Seventy percent of all cases of back pain are posture related."

The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons "Research suggests that as the population ages, back problems will become more common, and the lumbar seat will become the symbol of the aging boomer."

Correct Seating Posture

A proper lumbar support encourages correct seating posture, which provides:
• reduced strain for the vertebral disks
• improved relaxation
• optimum support for spinal column
• helps prevent back pain

Research at a major North American university has proven the benefits of the Schukra Lumbar on the back muscles. The unique design and placement gently massages the back muscles to improve blood flow to the supporting muscles. Increased circulation relaxes muscle tension, resulting in improved comfort and reduced fatigue.

Only Schukra provides the upper back support and lower pelvic area support with the lumbar region contour necessary for full seating comfort...."air lumbars" are simply just hot air!
