Men and women who suffer from back pain are all too well aware of how such pain can restrict their daily activities. Pain in the lower back or lumbar region can be caused by a variety of reasons, including osteoarthritis, strain, or injury. Depending on the nature of the pain, a physician may advise wearing a special belt, such as the Universal Elastic Lumbosacral Wraparound.
Featuring an adjustable hook 'n pile front closure complete with two-play 3-inch wide overlapping tension straps on both sides, this belt is designed to provide pressure where needed to relieve weight and stress on the lower back. This lumbosacral belt includes a firm elastic back section that is connected to a soft flannel-lined front for your complete comfort. Two removal pre-bent steel stays are included along with two spiral stays to help prevent rolling. This is an important element, as a lower quality belt without steel stays could eventually roll, which could lead to discomfort while wearing the belt.
By applying pressure across the stomach, a lumbosacral belt is able to relieve the stress that can often result in pain in the lower back. This type of belt can also assist with stabilizing the lumbar region of the spine, which can alleviate lower back muscle strain.
Men and women who have experienced back injuries in the past, who must lift heavy objects frequently, or who must sit for long periods of time, thus placing strain on the lower back, may find that a lumbosacral belt could provide effective pain relief.
When wearing a lumbosacral belt, it is important to ensure you have the correct size. Begin by measuring around the lower region of the back to ensure the proper size. You may need to consider the next available size to be certain you will be comfortable when wearing the belt. The Universal Elastic Lumbosacral Wraparound belt is available in sizes to fit hips 30” to 50”. Always double check to ensure you have the correct size for your specific measurements.
Choosing a lumbosacral belt with tension straps on both sides will allow for superior abdominal compression and maximum pain relief. When wearing a lumbosacral belt, it is important to be certain it is not too tight, as this could make it difficult to breathe and make it uncomfortable to move around while wearing the belt.
To properly care for your lumbosacral belt, always hand wash your belt in cold water and then allow it to air dry. This will help to prevent the fibers in the belt from breaking down, which could destroy the belt’s strength and compression abilities over time.
