About The Back Shop

The business was founded in 1980 by Colm Campbell, a Chartered Mechanical and Electrical Engineer following an event that changed his life. As he rose from his desk he was overcome with agonizing pain, went unconscious and hit the floor. Rushed to hospital with a suspected heart attack, he was diagnosed instead with a ruptured disc and was scheduled to have an emergency operation the following morning. Focusing on the mechanical and electrical engineering of the spine and referring to strict engineering principles Colm made a simple seat support for his car based on his own measurements.He began applying this principle to the manufacture of supports for his home chair and office chair, and the idea for the Back Shop was born. The Back Shop makes chairs for the home, office and car environments. We have three categories of chairs; made-to-measure spine alignment chairs, metrics based posture alignment chairs and lumbar support back alignment chairs to cater for people with varying levels of back and neck pain or who wish to prevent pain arising.
