Maybe but: If you stretch out the spinal vertebra what will keep it in place stretched out. The belt will weaken the muscles in the long run. The basic problem is weak ligaments that leave instability and that causes the back and leg (sciatic) pain. Relief is with prolotherapy. Visit www.Getprolo.Com or www.Aaomed.Org for info re prolotheapy and to find a doctor. If you wish more information seek a personal.

Possibly: However do not rely on that belt all the time as it will make your muscles weaker and you may make things worse. Belts/supports are typically helpful in situations when you need to do activity.
