I'm a physical therapist by trade. I remember learning about diagnosis and treatment of lumbar spine using McKenzie Method, otherwise known as MDT in the therapy world. This pillow is intended to supplement that philosophy, and improve sitting posture and support. This lumbar pillow is nice because you can position it right over the segment of your low back that needs the support the most. It does a nice job of supporting the lordotic curve of the lumbar spine when sitting for long periods of time. The theory is, if you slouch or sit with bad posture, you lose the lordotic curve and your spine will eventually start to ache. This pillow can help reduce back pain associated with prolonged sitting, and it kinda forces you to sit more upright, i.e. prevents slouching. I use this in my cheap old car which has no built in lumbar support, and it does a wonderful job. Just a bit of warning to anyone thinking about buying it. It takes some getting used to. It forces you to sit differently than you might be accustomed to. And just like I tell my patients, you may not be able to tolerate sitting with a lumbar pillow like this all day. It can become fatiguing with prolonged sitting. You may need to remove it from your chair periodically and take a break from using it. I got the standard density and it feels like just the right amount of firmness and support. I do not think I would like the firm density, in terms of overall comfort.

This lumbar roll has helped relieve my back pain greatly while I am sitting. I bought a second one so I can leave one in the car.

Came quickly and works well!

does the job, but a bit soft. The straps are better than on a previous product. Overall, my low back would like firmer support.

Good quality and firmness is perfect. I would advise to start with standard firmness and try firm only if you find it too soft.

Wish I'd gotten this a lot sooner. After just a few hours of use my back feels much less painful Aaand I am able to stand straighter. If you're having back pain get this lumbar support. It will help ease back pain.

Doesn’t stay in place

I was expecting this back support to be more firm which can provide better support to my lower back. I found that it is much better to put a massage ball (which is more sturdy) at my back and lean on it, which provides much more release of the tension at my lower back.

It's too soft, I thought it would more firm

Excelente ferramenta de massagem. No início as dores aumentam, mas com o tempo vão desaparecendo. Eu recomendo.

Good Product and easy to manage

柔らかすぎて、全然支えにならない。これならタオルを畳んで当てた方がまだ良い。
