Back Support Belts & Back Braces

Back supports and braces can assist the physiotherapy treatment of low back pain conditions such as Sciatica, slipped disc, herniated disc, degenerative disc disease, facet syndrome, back muscle strain and spinal stenosis. Back supports and back braces such as the Vulkan back support and Mueller back brace can help to improve posture which is important for the prevention and treatment of low back pain.

Neoprene back supports and braces can also provide therapeutic heat which relieves back pain and reduces back muscle spasm. Some back supports and braces have plastic or metal reinforcing struts that provide extra support to the lower back and remove the strain on muscles, ligaments and discs of the lower back region.

Back supports and back braces can play an important role acting as a physical reminder of the postural advice given by a physiotherapist as part of the treatment of back pain.
