Innovating Spine Health: How a New Tool Is Changing Physical Therapy

The best innovations in physical therapy often come from collaboration—between clinicians, inventors, and educators. One exciting development in spine rehab is the TrueTurnPro, a simple yet powerful device designed to improve movement in a critical part of your back: the thoracic spine.

Why Thoracic Spine Mobility Matters

The thoracic spine (your mid-back) plays a key role in posture, flexibility, and breathing. If it becomes stiff or restricted, it can lead to neck pain, shoulder tension, or limited movement throughout the day.

That’s where the TrueTurnPro comes in. Used for just five minutes a day, this tool helps gently mobilize the thoracic spine, support better posture, and improve overall spinal function.

From Innovation to Everyday Use

The TrueTurnPro was created by Carl Horne—a former professional ballet dancer, strength and conditioning coach for the LA Clippers, and competitive golfer—who understands movement from every angle.

What makes the device so effective is its ability to target thoracic stiffness in a way that’s safe, accessible, and easy to use. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, trying to improve posture, or managing daily back tension, this tool can support your goals.

Clinicians have seen how quickly patients respond, especially those dealing with postural issues, core weakness, and upper back tightness.

Designed for Real Life

You don’t need to be a professional athlete to benefit. In fact, the TrueTurnPro is ideal for people who work at desks, spend time driving, or spend hours looking down at phones or screens—all of which can contribute to poor posture and discomfort.

It’s a great addition to a physical therapy program or daily self-care routine.
