Spinal control. Felt. Seen. Heard. SEG-B® is a training board for practicing control of how your spine moves. Lie on it and roll your spine up off the board and back down, one section at a time. It's a control challenge, and it's harder than it looks. This is often called spinal segmentation.

How the board shows you. SEG-B has 14 keys that move independently under your back. You feel the ridged keys and listen for clicks: a click signals that a key reached the end of its travel. A blue line along the sides of the keys shows which keys are down, which are up, and the order they move in.

Built for people who teach movement. Physios, chiropractors, strength and conditioning coaches, and Pilates and movement studios get a control task they can set, cue and watch. Your client feels the keys and listens for clicks, and you both watch the blue line.

From the people who use it

The SEG-B from Backsync has become a staple in our morning prep … It's lightweight, intuitive, and easy enough to integrate into a daily routine … players aren't skipping it because it's cumbersome, they're doing it because it fits.

Research on the principle

SEG-B is a training and feedback tool, built on well-established principles of how the body moves, senses itself and adapts to training. The research below is about those principles, not about SEG-B.

Read the research summary

Control is a skill you can practice

Movements you can't easily see or feel are hard to practice. Research on other kinds of real-time feedback, such as ultrasound imaging, has found it can help people learn specific movement tasks. SEG-B gives you feedback you can feel, hear and see while you move. SEG-B itself has not yet been studied.

Awareness of how your back moves

Research on body awareness looks at how well people sense the position of their back. SEG-B is designed for practicing awareness of how your back moves on the board, section by section.
