OPTP The Original McKenzie Lumbar Roll – Firm Density Low Back Support | USA-made, lumbar support for office chair & car seat back support, the preferred lumbar pillow by physical therapists

Perfect for my back. Really helps my sciatic. I use it all day, every day!

I hurt my back and this has been a lifesaver, I used it when I’m sitting at my desk & on my floor chair. It’s not taken away the pain completely, but it’s making me more comfortable while I’m working and watching TV. It’s actually saving me from being uncomfortable. I like it a lot.

Finally a cushion of substance. So many cushions are "memory foam" that just goes flat almost instantly they are useless. This is a solid core of firm foam. leaning my (5'10" 200lb) back into feel great. The one minor downside: The strap would be so much easier if it was hook and lock ('velcro') then a cinch tight or instead of one end being sewn into the cushion it should be hooks on both end to allow easy replacement.

Works as advertised. I’d advise getting the firmer option. Firm is not all that firm; anything less would be mushy & offer inadequate support/resistance.

Great for correcting your postureEasy to take around

Well.. it's seems well made and good quality materials. I like the adjustable strap. I bought the original in firm. Even though I'm overweight (5'6" and 177 lbs for context) it's actually too firm for me to use in my car. So far on a desk chair, that has a mesh back, it's works better. I either wish I went with the smaller and standard stiffness.

My pt recommends this and it works well on our long hours on the road. It takes a little while to get used to but helps my sciatica too!

First, to address the 3 main concerns I saw in the bad reviews before deciding to purchase:1. Yes, it IS difficult to stuff the foam back into its cover after removing the plastic. That said, I also struggle to get the foam back in my dog's orthopedic bed after washing the cover. That's just how it is if you want foam that fills the cover.2. The cover IS NOT a heavy high quality material. This probably isn't something you would want a thick cover for, though - it would diminish the benefits of the foam. Do you encase your memory foam mattress in heavy canvas? Probably not, because it wouldn't feel as nice or be as effective. However, the cover WILL likely tear with frequent removal/washing.3. Foam breakdown. This I can't speak on because I haven't had it long enough. I will say that you shouldn't leave it in your car because heat breaks foam down pretty fast. It also breaks down with heavy daily use, which is one of the reasons running shoes don't last forever.Those are valid concerns, but I feel they would be the same for any roll made with this type of foam.Now for the PROS:1. This is the first time I've been able to sit down, without lower back pain, in a while. This thing is perfect. If the cover rips, I will repair it.2. See #1 above.I went back and forth trying to decide between standard and firm. Ultimately, I decided on firm because at 5'7 and 200lb I'm on the heavier side. I can see how some would find it too hard, but it's just right for me. I can use it in chairs, and even lay on it on the squishy couch (but I think it would be too hard to try that on a less forgiving surface).

This lumbar support is extremely good for your back. I have placed it in my chair and it does a great job of supporting my lower back .. it is firm as described and would recommend this to anyone who wants a firm lower back support .. since this is imported it is quite pricey but worth it ...

Propaganda enganosa! O produto nao e original e nao tem a densidade firme.

A mí me a funcionado muy bien, tuve una cirugía de columna lumbar y está la uso en mi oficina y me proporciona la postura recomendada x el fisiterapeuta es de un material lavable y no más bien rígido no es blando

Unlike a so-called "memory foam" lumbar support cushion I bought here and promptly returned because the thing simply flattened and provided no support or posture correction, this McKenzie Lumbar Roll really does what it promises to do - for me, anyhow. After positioning it on the seatback as shown in the product video, it effectively corrected my seated posture by inducing me to sit upright with a slightly arched back, thereby providing almost instant relief to my lumbar and mid-back. After just a few days of use (as a school bus driver), my back pain is drastically reduced.And definitely comfortable to use. The thing is almost like a miracle massage cushion.I also really like its look and material quality.Really glad I got this model - the firm one - as I figure the regular one would collapse too much and provide inadequate support/correction.
