How to choose waist support and when to wear it
May 07, 2022
The waistband is generally composed of breathable waist mesh, high elastic left and right elastic belts and reinforcing belts, with semi hard aluminum alloy strips or medical fiber plastic strips inside.
The main function of the waist belt is to protect the waist.
The purpose of alleviating low back pain is to limit the activities of the waist, that is, to alleviate the pressure in the intervertebral disc by limiting the flexion of the lumbar spine, so that the injured intervertebral disc can have a full rest, reduce the burden of the muscles and ligaments around the lumbar spine, prevent the injury from aggravating, create good conditions for the recovery of the patient and protect the lumbar tissue.
When using the lap belt, place the concave side of the lap belt outward, pad it on the back of the waist, overlap and fasten the nylon buttons at both ends, then buckle the auxiliary belt buckle in front of the abdomen, and adjust the elastic belts on both sides to a comfortable position.
It can be worn when lying flat or standing, and can be removed when sleeping.
There are many kinds of belt protection sold on the market. When purchasing, we should pay attention to three points:
First, the comfort of belt protection. Waist protection is worn at the waist, not at the hip. Once a good waist guard is put on, there is a sense of restraint. The waist has a feeling of "standing up", and this sense of restraint is comfortable.
The second is to have enough hardness. The waist protection with therapeutic effect must have a certain hardness to support the waist and disperse the force on the waist.
Third, select according to the purpose. Lumbar pain caused by lumbar muscle strain and lumbar degeneration does not require much protection and treatment. You can choose some elastic and breathable waist protection, which is relatively comfortable and close to the body.
People's concept of health is constantly revised. Whether beauty lovers or patients, the correct understanding and use of belt protection can make everyone healthy and aesthetic.
