Posture Plus Support Belt
Designed to improve intra-abdominal tension and decrease the strain on the spine. The Posture Plus™ belt relocates the center of gravity and limits the torsion movements of the lumbo-sacral region. Supports the spine in sacrum and lumbar and keeps the abdominal muscles compact to strengthen the core of the body. Recommended to support lumbar region while lifting objects as well as to help relieve lumbar pains caused by poor posture in long-hours sitting positions.

Adjustment
Unroll the belt. Position the belt on your lumbar arch. Keep sides in your hands and bring left hand toward your abdomen and hold. Stretch the right side of the belt and attach Velcro® band. Attach the belt first and add extra support by stretching and attaching the two elastic straps. Position the compression pad in the belt pouch to add more support.
Cleaning
Wash by hand with mild soap and air-dry.
Recommendations
Unless followed by a professional, we always recommend wearing the lumbar support intermittently to prevent the weakening of muscles (remove the support few hours every day).

If pain should persist, or if you wish to know more about how to use this product, consult a health specialist.
