The brace element has a selected lumbosacral or other anatomical contour fitted to match the person being seated. A positioning element locates the brace element in an adjustably selected supporting location. The seating device can be an accessory seat back placed on a conventional seat, such as an automatic seat, or can be a free standing seat.
