Backpod in the UK - how are people actually getting one?

Need advice

Hi all,

Been dealing with this for about half a year now - pretty sure I triggered it being a bit reckless at the gym.

First off, genuinely grateful this subreddit exists. I definitely had a couple of “I’m having a heart attack” runs to A&E before doctors cleared me and I started looking into what else it could be.

At its worst, my chest felt completely locked up - like I couldn’t breathe properly at all.

I came across this subreddit and started using a peanut ball on my back, and almost instantly I could breathe properly again (full chest + belly) without that elephant-on-chest breathing pain.

That said, I still have lingering chest pain. I’ve stayed away from the gym because I’m worried about setting myself back.

I’m wondering if this “last mile” of pain might be something the Backpod could help with?

Problem is, I can’t seem to actually buy one. The official site doesn’t seem to work for me, and the partner links I tried didn’t go through (even emailed the contact on the Bodystance page but no luck).

Has anyone in the UK managed to get one recently, or found a reliable alternative?

Appreciate any help. Thanks in advance 🙏
