WHAT IS OVERLOADING OF LUMBAR SPINE MUSCLES?

The overloading of lower spine muscles usually results in back pain. Apart from the faulty posture, that overloads the lower part of the spine, the daily exploit of the spine causes the compensation and spine muscles contraction. More and more children complain about back pain caused by overloading of back muscles that is the result of a heavy school bag.

It is necessary to remember that the acceptable mass of a school bag cannot weigh more than 15% of the whole body!

Moreover, keeping faulty posture for a long time in front of computer screen or at school may result in muscle contraction.

Does it mean that your child should not carry any school books? Of course not! Apart from working on keeping a correct posture during the day, you should think about our lumbar brace AR-SO-01, that will offload the spine of your child in a perfect way!

HOW DOES LOWER BACK BRACE AR-SO-01 WORK?

The aim of lumbar back brace AR-SO-01 is to stabilize and offload lower spine. When a spine is burdened, muscles are working and keeping the whole burden. Using AR-SO-01 brace, the spine is offloaded because of anatomic orthopedic stays. It is enough to wear the brace for a dozen or so minutes each day to feel a deep relief.

Lumbar back brace AR-SO-01 is made of ProFit™, straps are made of orthopedic rubber AirRubber™.

ProFit™ is a double-layer fabric that is elastic in all directions and fits to limb precisely. The external side is made of spandex providing excellent compression and absorbs muscle shocks in physical activity. The internal side consists of microfibre, cotton and elastane what makes it skin-friendly, breathable and provides velvet softness. ProFit™ is friendly and neutral for the skin and has Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certificate. In some products this material can have an internal elastic cotton layer.

AirRubber™ has unidirectional elasticity and it’s breathable. This lamination is perforated. Between the braids air flows freely and skin can breathe. In addition in high compression, these rubber braids provide a gentle massage for skin. Our orthopedic rubber is very friendly for skin.

The front part of lumbar back brace AR-SO-01 has a wide Velcro fastening. Thanks to such a solution, the level of compression can be regulated according to child’s need. Furthermore, the front part of the brace is lower than the back part. As a result, there is no pressure on the diaphragm and it can work freely. The Velcro fastenings are easy to use even by children, so that they can adjust the level of compression by themselves.

The back of lumbar back brace AR-SO-01 was equipped with stays that stabilize the spine and offload all spinal structures. In the middle of the brace, there is no stiffening, so there is no pressure on spinous processes and does not result in pain.

The aim of orthopedic stays is to stabilize and offload back muscles by taking over the force of gravity that influences on child’s spine. This force may be generated by a heavy school bag or incorrect posture that results in muscles asymmetry and painful contractures.
