Our Story

Founded in Yorkshire

Our Story

VertiBaX was founded by Angus Macnab, following a road traffic accident in 2000 that left him managing persistent lower back pain.

Drawing on his background in biochemistry and as a gym instructor, Angus developed a Core Lumbar range of lower back belts and supports — designed to warm the core muscles using natural body heat, while stabilising the lower back at the L5/S1 level of the spine.

After five years of development, VertiBaX officially launched in 2006. In 2010, the VB119 passed through the Boots Centre for Innovation and became a trusted lower back pain management aid.

Beyond His Own Pain

Helping many more since

Beyond His Own Pain

What started as a solution for Angus's own pain has since grown to help many others: VertiBaX went on to work alongside paediatric physiotherapists caring for children with cerebral palsy, developing a child back support belt now used in NHS clinics across the UK.

Today, VertiBaX is MHRA-registered as a manufacturer of Class 1 orthopaedic support devices — still designed in Yorkshire, made in Cornwall, and still owned and run by Angus.
