Bauerfeind has designed LumboLoc and LordoLoc as advanced back braces to address various issues with the lumbar spine. These medical devices are carefully crafted in order to provide the greatest support and stability to the lower back region. Both braces feature anatomically shaped supports - LumboLoc uses stainless steel stays, while LordoLoc utilizes spring steel stays - to work with the body's natural structure and promote proper spinal alignment. This design element is crucial in alleviating discomfort, reducing stress, and ensuring proper posture.
The effectiveness of the orthoses greatly depends on the importance of the circular closure system. They wrap around the whole upper body, offering a support system that helps to support and stabilize the entire back area. The therapeutic qualities of the components in LumboLoc and LordoLoc are carefully selected. The close-knit material provides multiple advantages: it offers compression to reduce swelling, presents a subtle resistance for strengthening muscles when in motion, and provides a soothing massage-like effect for relieving discomfort.
Being able to be modified is an important feature of orthotic devices. They are created with adjustable tensioning or Velcro straps that allow people to change the level of compression and support according to their own preferences and comfort needs. Their adaptability makes them suitable for different kinds of back problems, like muscle weaknesses and minor posture issues. Including hand straps in the design simplifies the process of putting on and removing the devices, ensuring convenient use for individuals with limited mobility.
While LumboLoc and LordoLoc provide strong support, they are designed to be discreet while being worn throughout daily tasks. The soft, slender, and airy fabrics lay pleasantly on the skin without showing through clothing. This delicate design encourages consistent utilization, crucial for providing effective support for the back and building muscle strength over time.
