Description

The Lumbamed Facet is a lumbar orthosis intended for the treatment of lumbar column problems by stabilizing the lumbar spine area and the lumbosacral transition. It uses a combination of compressing knitted fabric, stabilizing back rods, and a pullstrap system which increases pressure. The abdominal compression and trunk musculature support relieve the strain on the lumbar column so that it eases back pain. In addition, the brace allows for targeted relief of the facet joints through effective reduction of the lordosis. With its four crossover pull straps, this creates a double three-point system with the dorsal points of application on the pelvis and in the upper lumbar spine area. Basically, this holds the pelvis in an upright position. Moreover, the three-point strap system increases the effect of reducing lordosis formation through individual pressure management. Lastly, there is a special cut in the groin area (known as the comfort zone) to ensure proper and comfortable fit, which allows users to wear the brace all day long, if needed.
