WHICH MODEL
IS THE RIGHT ONE FOR ME?
For most people, the Sturfer is the best option. Especially if you are very shortened, you have a lot more adjustment options on the Sturfer to slowly improve your stretching ability. If your goal is to go very far, you should also take the sturfer, because with it you can stretch your hips up to 50°. If you have severely shortened front thigh muscles or a hollow back or if you regularly have back pain, the Sturfer is better for you. The Sturfer is the only model that has a knee support to really stretch the front thigh muscles comfortably and permanently. All other variants cannot do this. In addition, only the Sturfer has a synchronized mechanism.
The Sturfer Light has fewer functions. Here it takes longer for you to reach the stretches. Again, you can buy just the chair first and then upgrade.
The Sturfer Light is also ideal if you have no or only slight back pain.
The Sturf Stand is largely the same as the Easy Sturfer, but has no adjustable chest support and only one strap instead of the pelvic pusher. This is less convenient. The surcharge for the pelvis presser is 999 euros. The upper leg rest has a fixed angle of stretch (particularly suitable for advanced users), but can also be adjusted to different angles for an additional 399 euros.
The Sturfer Stand Med version is intended for use in surgeries and is equipped with a washable cover.
The differences:
Sturfer: can do everything, especially comfortable permanent stretching of the front thigh muscles and synchronized mechanism when seated
Sturfer Light: psoas stretching (hip hyperextension only 25° – but can be upgraded to 37.5° and 50° by a mechanic if necessary), no synchronized mechanism, no rotating upper leg rest, pelvic pressure only on the right)
Sturf stand: Psoas stretch (hip hyperextension only 25° – can be upgraded), no rotating upper leg rest (can be upgraded), belt instead of pelvic press (can be upgraded)
Sturf Stand Flex:
Psoas extension (hip hyperextension 25° – 37,5° – 50°), rotatable upper leg rest, belt instead of pelvic thruster (upgradeable)
Sturf Stand Med: Psoas stretch (hip hyperextension 25° – 37.5° – 50°), rotatable upper leg rest, pelvic pressure, washable cover.
DISCOUNT
POSSIBLE?
We have permanently reduced the price. Therefore, there are no additional discounts. Nevertheless, if there are smaller discounts, they are listed either on the front page or directly at the store. It’s worth looking there.
Pricing depends on very many factors. If you want us to inform you, sign up here. If you are genuinely interested in the Sturfer, but can’t afford it, just give us a call, or send us an email at info@sturfer.com. Occasionally we have used demonstration models.
WHY
PREPAYMENT?
The sturfer is the invention of a doctor. Orthopedist Dr. Christian Behrendt developed it based on his exceptional experience. Dr. Behrendt has never been satisfied with simple solutions and to this day is constantly on the lookout for new therapeutic options. He is a spine surgeon and at the same time also highly specialized in common and new and even very little known non-surgical therapeutic procedures. He is one of the few doctors who has knowledge and experience for the treatment of the spine from the beginning to the end of back pain with all its facets. He is therefore the point of contact for many people for second opinions, even in seemingly hopeless cases. One of the best treatment options for back pain is elastopathy, which has laid the foundation for sturfer. Dr. Behrendt has paid for the entire development of the Sturfer himself to give you the opportunity to benefit from his incredible experience. All his experience he gives you in practice, through Youtube, social media and books. Sturfer’s company is run by him in addition to his practice, and until the company is once profitable, he pays for it. In order to be able to produce the sturfer to a high quality and to keep the price as low as possible, large quantities must always be produced at once. The only way to do this is to pay in advance. For the development, Sturfer has received the Bavarian Innovation Voucher 5x, several research and development grants and in 2022 the Sturfer was ranked 3rd best German invention (Falling Walls Summit). There is not yet a suitable investor, because the product, idea and investor goals must fit together very well. Most investors currently want to invest primarily in digital or already established products. We are in talks with the first genuinely interested investors.
If you need a medical consultation with Dr. Behrendt, this will be covered by German health insurance when you visit the practice in Germany. If you have no pain or are pain-free due to your previous therapies, we are happy. However, we are still convinced that you have shortened muscles and recommend that you have the muscles examined and, if necessary, made elastic by elastopathy methods.
FINANCING
BY INSTALLMENT
Financing is possible through our partners EasyCredit, Klarna and Paypal. You can find the details in the store at the respective product.
WHY THIS PRICE?
UNPRECEDENTED, QUALITY, KOW HOW & INNOVATION
Just because the sturfer can also be a chair
it is definitely anything but a chair. For the first time, it is a real solution to one of the biggest problems facing our society.
Who would have
- I spent 1500 euros on a cell phone before they were called smartphones ,
- 2500 Euro for an ergometer when it didn’t have a screen,
- paid over 10,000 euros for a bicycle when they were not yet e-bikes and
- spent over 100,000 on a car that runs on battery power.
Production costs
Development time & complexity
The sturfer has had a development period of 5 years. The complexity of combining the fall function and the seat function without restriction has made the contruction extremely difficult. We have rebuilt every single component several times in some cases, and some very frequently. Due to the complexity, practically no ready-made purchased parts could be used. We had to have almost all components manufactured ourselves.
Quality & Safety
Since the sturfer must fully support a human, the sturfer has very high safety requirements. During the sturfing you have no contact with the ground. We have therefore placed very great emphasis on safety, stability and durability.
The Sturfer is made of high quality components, manufactured by brand manufacturers specifically for the Sturfer. Sustainability and the optimal use of resources are important to us, both in the choice of materials, the finishers and the transport routes. To save transport distances and uncertainties in the supply chains, the Sturfer is manufactured in Germany in certified factories with very good working conditions.
The pelvic presser alone includes 2 special heavy-duty extractors, which are required to give lasting security.
Medical Know How
The knowledge of making the muscles elastic is a finding of the last years, which can loosen the shortened muscles through several specialized therapeutic procedures. This has also led to a new renaissance in stretching. The knowledge gained from these new therapeutic procedures, orthopedic and spinal surgery experience has been incorporated into this product. This has nothing to do with normal stretching, physiotherapy, strength training and sports, because all these procedures have not solved the problem back in many people.
The training is better than with own exercises and it is taken over
You can’t compare the cost of the sturfer to an ergonomic office chair. The Sturfer is also an ergonomic office chair, but it also offers unexpectedly more options. You have the option of not having to do any exercises. No matter how hard you find it to do exercises. The Sturfer takes away your practice time and exercises, it solves a previously unsolved problem.
Health insurance !
WHAT IS PAID?
DREAMING Can we times
German health insurance companies reimburse an amount for preventive services, depending on the state. These amounts range from 60 to 500 euros and can often be used for the sturfer. Here, the respective health insurance company itself would have to be asked, because there are considerable differences depending on the health insurance company and the federal state.
NO MEDICAL PRODUCT
The Sturfer is not a medical device or a medical aid, but it replaces the office chair, just as a standing stool does. The standing stool is better for your health than the chair. In the same way, the sturfer is better for your health than the standing stool.
HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE WRITING TABLE – THE pension scheme
You can best compare the Sturfer with a height-adjustable desk. This is paid either by the employer or by the German pension insurance. The latter pays only in very exceptional cases. The health insurance company pays nothing.
Half of our customers sturft at home
Despite sitting in the office, many buyers use the sturfer in the evening after work at home, to relax, read to surf the Internet and watch TV.
YOUR EMPLOYER
It will be new for your employer to spend such an amount for an apparent chair. He will probably not yet know the sturfer and its advantages, and the budget is not provided, he said.
However, many companies have already recognized the value of the Sturfer to their employees and the cost savings it provides. An employee who misses work due to back pain misses an average of 17.6 days a year. With an average production loss of 285 euros per day, the sturfer is already paid for after one year, and employers who buy multiple sturfers benefit through volume discounts. We have created an information brochure for your employer, which shows him all the advantages in detail. You can present it to him and discuss the benefits with him. Surely your employer will follow the example of other top employers, for your health and satisfaction and its savings on downtime costs.
Netfund: Have now bought an e-bike with 630Wh battery (5,299€), so I can leave the Tesla S (105,490€) more often in the garage. Saves the environment and is so much fun! Best of all, I can charge it for free with my 10kWp PV system with 8 kWh of electricity storage (€18,568). Even better, with the PV I can operate (except in winter) in addition my newly installed 9kW heat pump (15,000€), which is in fact since the energy renovation of my house (facade, windows, roof, underfloor heating, 100,000€) COMPLETELY sufficient! Guys, I heat almost for free (1.900€ p.a.). – But health is worth much more, because being pain-free is priceless!
The crucial solution to the problem of back pain is to restore the elasticity of the muscle and keep it permanently.
