Ideas of things to include in the presentation??







Identifying the problem -

BACK PAIN/STIFF JOINTS



'Back pain is extremely common - about 8 out of 10 people in the UK are affected at some time in their lifes.' - bupa website


We are looking to design something that will aid long term sufferers.


Other products that also aim to do this include, ergonomic chairs, orthopedic matresses, back support/braces.
These all aim to help ease the pain, however our goal is to help indepedant living/ help in day to day tasks.

3 Chronic back pain can last for months, even years and is present mostly in the elderly.
this is due to degeneration/stiffness in muscles and joints. Although can occur earlier in
life due to illness/injury

target market includes, independant elderly people. living alone. injured. generaly aged
35+

5 Market research - image boards showing products already available to aid the problem

6 We noticed there seemed to be plenty of gadgets which were used to help with back
pain reliefe but not much to aid the sufferers through the day.
