ABSTRACT:
A lower lumbar support for supporting a person's lower back muscles. The lower lumbar support includes a support belt having a first end and a second end and a belt fastener for securing the first end to the second end. The lower lumbar support also includes a first pad and a second pad, affixed to the support belt between the first and second ends, for exerting pressure on the person's lower back muscles when the lower lumbar support is being worn by said person. When the lower lumbar support is being worn, the two pads straddle the person's spine and thus lie on opposing sides of the spine. The lower lumbar support further includes a pressure strap attached to the support belt. The pressure strap has first and second wings, each of which have a tip. The tips each have a tip fastener for adjustably fastening the first and second wings to the support belt to apply further pressure to the person's lower back muscles via the pads.
