Research shows that about 80% of Americans suffer from chronic pain at some point in their life. The pain can become a persistent condition that interrupts their daily life. Chronic pain has led many Americans down the path of addiction to prescription medication.
At Aspire Pain Relief, we focus on finding the source of the pain instead of masking it with prescription medicine or doing unnecessary surgery. As Tampa’s best interventional pain physicians, we may recommend using back braces for chronic back pain. Back braces help improve posture, which reduces the pressure on your spine and discs.
Read on for more insights about back braces and how they help with chronic back pain:
Types of Back Braces
Mueller Lumbar Support Back Brace
The Mueller Lumbar back brace lessens your body’s load on the spine’s lower discs. It leads to a more balanced distribution of weight to minimize pain. It also acts as back support while lifting heavy objects.
Brace Up Stability Lumbar Lower Back Brace
It has highly breathable mesh panels that give you immediate relief while strapping it. The back brace takes the pressure off the spine and gives you the necessary support for your daily activities.
Flexguard Support Back Brace
If you have chronic pain in your upper and lower backs, the Flexguard brace will cover both areas. It’s adjustable, strong, and comfortable, and it trains your spine and back muscles to return to their natural alignment.
Sparthos Breathable Back Brace
Over time, your discs get more rigid and lose elasticity which can cause rupture leading to a herniated disc. The Sparthos vertical support stabilizes your back and reduces the pressure on your discs. The adjustable lumbar pad offers more compression on your lower back.
