THE ORIGINAL IDEA

IT STARTED
WITH
Grandma.

As a child, Matthew Rodriguez watched his grandmother choose layers of blankets on the living-room floor over her bed. She said it felt better for her.

Years later, his own experience and his work as a massage therapist in a chiropractor’s office brought that memory back. He wanted a firmer surface without sleeping on his basement floor.

His answer was plywood, a yoga mat and a prototype sized for his side of the bed.

Designed to stay flat.
Matt put his prototype away beneath the couch or between mattresses where it fit. Check your own space before choosing a mat.

A FEW PRACTICAL THINGS

Good
questions.

More answers
Can I order one yet?

Orders are not open yet. The production sample and delivery details are still being finalized. Ask about availability through our inquiry form.

Will it fit my bed or couch?

The prototype is 24 × 48 inches. Measure the surface you have in mind; we have not confirmed compatibility with every bed or couch. Final dimensions and use guidance will be published before paid orders open.

Can I fold it to put it away?

No. BackMat has a rigid core and is designed to stay flat. Check for a flat storage space that can accommodate the full footprint.
