ABSTRACT:
A lumbar support heating/cooling support belt is adapted to be worn over the lumbar spine and around the back of the user for back pain. The support has one pocket in the lower back section of the support. The pocket is capable of removably receiving a packet to create a thermal change in the pocket or provide air or foam rubber packets for support. There is an optional secondary support that runs over and attaches to the primary support. This provides additional desired muscular support by tightly or snugly adjusting via Velcro attachments around the back and sides. Then there are two criss-cross supports over the outer primary support which provide optional stiffness if desired by user. The two criss-cross supports both have an attached pocket which can house plastic or metal stays for even more support. This support provides the user many options and combinations in which to wear the support using all or some of the optional supports. The user also has the option to use one of various therapeutic devices at the same time. The wearer can use this support in any way or combination which best supports or controls his or her back pain.
