ABSTRACT:
Improved lumbar spine support including a posterior and an anterior panel for supporting the corresponding torso areas. These panels are connected by flexible fabric support belt arrangement for tightly surrounding the torso. The posterior panel preferably includes an elongated upright forwardly facing protrusion having a laterally extending wider lower portion for centering and securing the posterior panel over the lumbosacral area of the spine. The anterior panel, preferably slightly arcuate as seen from above, supports the abdominal musculature of the torso. A tightening strap arrangement connected to the support belt provides increased independent right and left side tightening of both panels against the torso.
