Product Description
Over the years, The Original McKenzie Lumbar Rolls have literally helped hundreds of thousands achieve freedom from common low back pain. An adjustable elastic strap lets users secure the roll to standard chair backs and auto seats. Proven quality! An independent laboratory compared the high quality McKenzie Lumbar Rolls, by OPTP, with competitive products and found "...the OPTP Lumbar Roll is more supportive, will not lose its supportive qualities as quickly, and will offer more consistent support longer than the other rolls sampled." An independent laboratory confirmed the superiority of The Original McKenzie Lumbar Roll in a blind random analysis with test rolls from our largest competitors. While the foam used in a competitor's lumbar roll suffered immediate and continued structural breakdown, OPTP's roll suffered no structural breakdown and remained consistent through the test period. The lab's conclusion: "...the OPTP lumbar roll is more supportive, will not lose its supportive qualities as quickly, and will offer more consistent support longer than the other rolls sampled..."

5 out of 5 stars Perfect fit   November 1, 2009
K. Abdullah
Coming from a healthcare background this lumber roll is a perfect fit for many backs. I helps to maintain the normal curvurture of the spine. It's convenient removable strap will allow you to take it anywhere. I would recommend this for most healthy backs regardless or having a back problem. I use it as a preventive measure to avoid bad body mechanics which usually predisposes people to having back problems. Excellent investment!!!


1 out of 5 stars Made my back feel worse!   October 24, 2009
Wellness RD (Illinois)
I have a friend who swears by this product, so I bought one. I have chronic back pain, and am always interested in something that will help. However, this actually made my back hurt more! I ended up giving it away. It is very hard...no give to it at all. I have another, bigger, lumbar support made out of a memory foam that works much better for me.

I use one for long trips and at the computer. It provides significant reduction of my mid-back pain, both relief and prevention.


2 out of 5 stars Disappointed   September 8, 2009
J. Kaplan
I found two major problems with the cushion. First, the cushion does not stay in place on my chair (I have a Herman Miller Aeron) no matter how tight I pull the strap. So, I have to constantly readjust the cushion every time I sit down or fidget in my chair. The cushion is also coated in a fleece-like material and makes my back feel very hot as the day goes on. Its been very hard for me to make it through a full day without wanting to remove the cushion. Further, because of the heat, I think I end up fidgeting more than normal. The end result is that rather than helping, I think the cushion has actually made my back hurt more than normal! Very disappointing.

Had one for 7 years in my car, before it lost its form. This si a must have for lower back suffers who drive a lot.
