Swede-O® Thermal LSO effectively reduces pain by restricting motion while stabilizing the spine. The rigid anterior and posterior panels provide critical support and compression for the back and abdomen. The posterior panel is inserted into a pocket and extends from L-1 to below L-5 vertebra.

The rigid anterior and posterior panels effectively control flexion and extension while maintaining correct posture and stabilizing the spine. The exceptional support, compression and heat therapy helps to reduce or relieve lower back pain. Both panels may be heated and remolded to provide a custom fit (see molding instructions included with product).
