About Serola
Serola Biomechanics, Inc. is the result of research done by Dr. Rick Serola, a chiropractor. In 1988, after noticing that muscle strength increased throughout the body after sacroiliac stabilization, he began research into the underlying biomechanics. As a result, he found the need for products that were not in the marketplace, so he developed them himself. Now the Serola Sacroiliac Belt is being used to provide pain relief and help prevent injury to thousands of new people every day throughout the world.
Mission Statement
Serola Biomechanics’ mission is to provide world-class orthopedic products that effectively relieve and prevent pain. Serola’s ever-expanding, patent-protected, whole-body healthcare solutions improve muscle function from the core to the extremities and improve quality of life. Implementing 30 years of cutting-edge research, Serola Biomechanics will continue to educate both healthcare professionals and the public about the musculoskeletal system and develop new treatment methods that help to significantly reduce the costs and adverse effects of misdirected care.
