A member asked:
Decompression belt vs traction belt vs lumbar belt which is better?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low back pain: The belt that provides the best pain relief and comfort for your back is the best belt for you. Belts are not a panacea but an adjunct to other treatments to relieve low back pain or to protect you from repeat or future injury to the low back.
