Schukra Adjustable Lumbar Back Support

This back support is ergonomically friendly for the user as it comes with an adjustment knob that adjusts the degree of the curve. The adjustment knob allows for it to individually support a wide range of users efficiently. The back support is also portable so the user can strap it onto any chair to ensure their back is always well supported. Additionally, in comparison to other back supports on the market, Schukra’s product has a relatively thin profile so doesn’t take up a significant portion of the seatpan.

In this technological age we find ourselves spending a vast amount of time sitting in front of computers. Spending such a large span of time in an uncomfortable chair, most likely not sitting with correct posture, will soon begin to take a toll on our backs. This back support provides a solution to this problem, providing our backs with sufficient support around the clock with it’s portable feature. The most beneficial of its features is its ergonomic design that provides it with the ability to adjust to the individual user and support their back perfectly, ensuring an all around better support.

The back support provides support for the lower portion of the vertebrae, know as the lumbar. In the United States, lower-back and lumbar strains are the most common cause of missed work days. This statistic shows an obvious need for better back support for the lower back region whenever possible. Strain on the back from constant bad posture and no back support when spending hours a day on a computer can cause a severe, constant pain in the lower back.  Bad posture specifically adds strain to muscles and puts stress on the spine which can change the anatomical characteristics of the spine over time.
