Aktion Gesunder Rücken (AGR) e. V. – Working together to help you live a back-healthy life! Recognition of the best specialist shops Aktion Gesunder Rücken e. V. is an independent association that aims to promote back health. To this end, AGR has developed the ‘Tested & Recommended’ seal of approval as a tool to help consumers in their decision-making processes. This seal is exclusively awarded to products that are categorised as ‘back-friendly’. For this assessment, an independent testing committee made up of doctors and therapists from a variety of specialist fields comes together and subjects an extremely wide range of products to stringent testing criteria. • Over 30 years of association work • More than 120 subject areas • Over 1,000 tested products • More than 1,100 trained experts in ergonomics and back health • Over 400 certified specialist shops We won’t leave you all on your own! We are also happy to meet with you on Zoom to provide an overview of our marketing tools and tips on how to best use the certification. This meeting is also free to attend, and you will receive helpful tips. Expert advice from local specialist retailers is helpful when choosing products if you’re looking to live a back-healthy life. In an AGR-certified specialist shop, customers will find particularly knowledgeable, trained sales staff and a selection of products that have been awarded the AGR seal of approval. The prerequisites for certification as a specialist retailer include employing sales staff who have successfully completed the AGR specialist retailer training course, stocking products with the AGR seal of approval in your specialist shop and having good knowledge of the various products. During initial certification, one or more members of your sales staff attend the specialist retailer course (online training). Attendees of the specialist retailer course are taught the anatomical fundamentals in relation to spinal functions, the tasks and structure of the muscles, etc. They also receive comprehensive information about how to live a ‘backfriendly everyday life’. In the years that follow, it is possible, but not essential, to attend the specialist retailer course again. As a certified specialist shop, your special consulting expertise is made clearly visible to consumers. Thousands of doctors and therapists from the AGR network recommend that their patients seek advice from certified specialist shops. This builds trust and brings new customers to your specialist shop.
