About Lior zakaria

My name is Lior, and I’ve been a dedicated Iyengar Yoga teacher for about 14 years, with over 20 years of yoga practice together.
The Salamba Support Belt was born from my personal experience in the yoga world.
Over the years, I've assisted in treating anatomical issues like back, neck, and knee pain, both as an assistant and as a teacher.
One day, while sitting on the floor, listening to a lecture, I noticed how everyone, including myself, struggled with prolonged sitting, We all used our hands and elbows to adjust positions, but none of these positions were comfortable, leading to joint pain.

That’s when I designed a belt with a specific width, length, fabric, and knee support that creates resistance between the knee and the shoulder blades, offering back support like a chair.
Instantly, I found myself sitting upright, feeling supported and relieved from back, Since there was no need to support myself with my hands, the joint discomfort disappeared as well.
That’s why I named it Salamba, which means "support" in Sanskrit, the ancient language of India.

While this isn’t a therapeutic strap for any kind of orthopedic problem you need to advice your doctor therapist or orthoped.
The salamba belt offers a simple, portable solution for times when you need to sit comfortably, Whether you’re at the beach, having a picnic with friends or family, enjoying nature on a hike, or sitting through a lecture or conference where the floor is hard this belt is the answer.
For extra comfort, we also offer a soft folded foam cushion, which you can purchase alongside the belt.

Both the belt and the cushion are easy to carry lightweight and fit into any bag, ready to be used whenever you need them.

I’m confident that once you experience the simplicity and comfort of sitting with the Salamba Belt, you’ll thank me and recommend it to your friends!

Best regards,
Lior
