A lumber back support, often referred to as a lumbar support, is a device designed to support the lower back and maintain its natural curve. It helps alleviate pressure on the spine and surrounding muscles, particularly in the lumbar (lower) region, which can reduce discomfort from sitting for long periods.
These supports are commonly used in office chairs, car seats, and other seating arrangements to prevent or relieve lower back pain. They are typically adjustable in size and firmness, allowing users to customize the fit to their body’s contours. Some models are ergonomic and made with memory foam, while others may have additional features like heat or massage functions for extra relief.
A lumbar back support can also improve posture by promoting proper alignment of the spine, reducing strain on the back muscles, and encouraging healthy sitting habits.
