ABSTRACT:
An improved lumbar spine support including a posterior shell form-fitted around the corresponding torso area. This shell is connectable by flexible fabric support belt arrangement tightly against the torso. The posterior shell includes an elongated upright indentation having a laterally extending wider lower portion for centering and securing the posterior shell over the lumbosacral area of the spine. A tightening strap arrangement connected to the support belt provides increased independent right and left side tightening of the posterior shell against the torso.
