Purpose of the Device
- Provides support of the lumbosacral region of the spine
Indications
- Lower back pain
- Spinal stenosis
- Degenerative joint disease
- Disc herniation
Special Considerations
- Does not work well where there is large hip development (tends to migrate superiorally); consider a molded orthosis or a corset
- Works well for patients who must return to physical labor jobs and need lumbar support
