Features of the VITA Active lumbar support belt
On the VITA Active 04-2-051, the stays support the lower back while the straps adjust the fit around the torso.
The four rear stays sit on either side of the spine and help limit movement in the lower back.
The four elastic hook-and-loop straps let you adjust the tension around the waist and sides of the torso.
The breathable fabric allows air to pass through, while the shaped design follows the contours of the waist.
Intended use
VITA lists the belt as a support aid in conservative care for acute lower back pain or sciatica, muscle or ligament injuries in the lower back, lumbar disc herniation and degenerative spinal joint conditions. If you have a diagnosis or a rehabilitation plan, ask your healthcare professional which support to use and for how long.
Frequently asked questions
How does the VITA Active differ from a basic elastic waist belt?
A basic elastic belt mainly provides compression around the waist. The Active adds four rear stays for lower back support and four elastic straps to adjust the tension.
Should I choose M or L if my waist measures exactly 95 cm?
VITA includes 95 cm in both size ranges. Wrap a soft tape around your waist, keeping it level and without pulling it tight. If the measurement is still 95 cm, contact us for help checking the fit before choosing a size.
How does the Active adjust compared with a cord-operated belt?
On the Active, you adjust the tension using elastic straps and hook-and-loop fastenings. On a model such as the ASPEN Lumbar Support, you pull cords to adjust the compression. The practical difference is how you fasten and tighten the belt.
