Formerly Known As
Now
The Same Mission.
A Bigger Vision.
We started as Restful Pump® — focused on giving pumping mothers the ergonomic support they deserved. Today, as Boddie Balance™, that commitment has grown into a complete patented and patent-pending positioning system portfolio. Our flagship product is designed for every body that sits.
Our Product Always Did More.
Now the Name Reflects It.
Restful Pump® captured the heart of our original mission — but the chair we built was never just for pumping mothers. It was for anyone who sits.
Pumping Mothers
The forward-lean positioning system was invented by a licensed physical therapist and mother to reduce musculoskeletal strain — with the goal of extending the breastfeeding journey. The Boddie Balance Lactation System is clinically studied to support milk flow.
Knowledge Workers
The same corrective forward-lean posture that helps pumping mothers also protects the neck, shoulders, and spine of anyone who works, games, or studies at a desk for hours.
Safe Positioning and Recovery
IBCLCs, working moms, exhausted moms, and middle-of-the-night pumping moms, everyday desk workers, and gamers use Boddie Balance to distribute forces while anteriorly supporting the spine — without posterior spinal restrictions. An open-back chair design with more room to move. Engineered for how we actually sit, focus, and pump.
Who Uses Boddie Balance
IBCLCs, working moms, exhausted moms, and everyday desk workers and gamers use Boddie Balance to distribute forces while anteriorly supporting the spine.
"Engineered for the Way You Actually Sit.™"
That tagline is not just a slogan — it is the physical therapy principle that has driven every design decision since day one. Boddie Balance is the name that reflects the full scope of that mission.
Same Founder. Same Research.
Same Mission to Support Mothers.
Founded by a Physical Therapist & Mom
Micolene Boddie, PT, AT, CSCS, created this product because she could not find ergonomic support that met the clinical standard a mother deserved. That founding purpose has never changed.
Clinically Studied
A preliminary case study demonstrated an increased flow rate of breastmilk, and a second IRB-supervised clinical study is on the way.
Independently conducted; IRB submission in process
Patented Technology
The core forward-leaning positioning technology is patented across 30+ countries, protecting the innovation that makes Boddie Balance™ unique.
Centered on Mothers
Whether in a corporate or collegiate lactation suite, a NICU with our space-saving devices, or a home bedroom at 2 a.m. — supporting lactating mothers and improving functional ergonomics remains the beating heart of everything we build.
From the Founder
Micolene Boddie
PT, AT, CSCS · Physical Therapist · Mom · Inventor
"Restful Pump was born from a deeply personal need — I knew what my body needed, and nothing on the market provided it. Boddie Balance carries that same conviction forward. The name has grown, but the care behind every product is identical."
