Which backrest is best for lower back pain?

See below: You want something that promotes good posture. Anything that encourates a curvature of the back just above your hips is fine. I bought a special back support on line but actually a cylinder shaped pillow that i bought at wal-mart works better. They cost about the same, maybe 15 dollars.

Depends on you: There are so many different back rests and so many different people. The best thing is to try a few out and see what feels the best for your individual anatomy.
