Mode of operation

The MKS® Lumbo Plus functions according to the 3-point-principle. The wide lumbar bandage with the additional tensioning straps and the modular frame structure straightens and hence relieves the lumbar vertebral column. The reclination straps are attached to the lumbar bandage through additional lateral straps. Therefore spine flexion is limited and stabilisation is ensured.
