Constant back pain is disturbing, reduces productivity and worsens quality of life. In such cases, the spine needs help from the outside - soft unloading. LordoLoc can easily handle this task.

LordoLoc consists of four inserts of moderate rigidity in the back of the orthosis and two elastic bands in the front. This design allows LordoLoc to act simultaneously in two directions: external unloading and support through activation of its own muscles. Thanks to rigid inserts made of lightweight aluminum alloy, LordoLoc supports the spine from the outside, relieving tension from it. Using tapes, you can regulate intra-abdominal pressure and thereby enhance external unloading and support of the spine.

The spine is the basis of the human skeleton; it performs a musculoskeletal function and also protects the spinal cord. Many people face problems of back pain, insomnia, and headaches.

It is important to understand that problems get worse with age. When the spine grows, the problems that arise can be corrected by wearing a children's orthopedic back brace and exercising physical therapy. In more complex cases, you may need an orthopedic thoracolumbar rigid children's corset or an orthopedic corset for a child, which will help cope with the deviations of the spinal column that have arisen.

For adults who want to correct their posture, manufacturers offer the use of a back corset for men or women. A men's orthopedic corset for the spine differs from a woman's in size and shape. The women's orthopedic corset for the spine is practically invisible even under light summer clothing. It is necessary to distinguish a supportive female back corset from a back corset during pregnancy, the latter is intended primarily to ensure the physiologically correct position of the fetus and distribute the load on the spine.

It makes sense for every motorist to carry rigid neck braces in his car, and it is advisable to have braces of at least two sizes: children's and adult. In the event of even a minor accident, there is a risk of injury to the cervical vertebrae, so it is imperative for all participants to put on the bandages as carefully as possible before the ambulance arrives.

In case of spinal diseases, it is necessary to wear an appropriate bandage to strengthen the muscular corset of the back.

The spinal column has curves, so in case of diseases of the spine, it is necessary to choose the appropriate device: a bandage for the lumbosacral spine is significantly different from an orthopedic thoracolumbar corset.

For example, a doctor may recommend buying a rigid lumbar back corset for a herniated disc. Depending on the location of the hernia and the severity of the symptoms of the disease, the corset for the spine can be rigid, semi-rigid and supportive; the corset can be made as a belt for the spine or a corset for the thoracic spine. In some cases, the doctor may recommend wearing a lumbar spine orthosis, which speeds up the rehabilitation of a patient who has suffered from a spinal disease.

Back corsets are used for osteochondrosis, chondrosis and scoliosis, to correct posture. If you have these diseases, it is necessary to clarify with your doctor the specifics of the model required by the patient, which takes into account individual characteristics as much as possible.
