  2. Shape and adjust the aluminium structure of the back-straightener.
  3. Slip on the back-straightener, passing the arms through the braces. (2)
  4. Before fitting, make sure the end of the back-straightener belt is still attached to the braces. It is recommended that the Thuasne Lombax Dorso be worn over a tee shirt.

BELT FASTENING INSTRUCTIONS

Detach the end of the braces and simultaneously pull on both straps. Fasten them where it suits you best.

 

WARNING :

For maximum effectiveness of the orthosis, never separate the belt part from the back-straightener part. Fit the sternal support to the subject's morphology using the velcro located on the dorsal part. Then adjust the torso element using the two velcro tabs. (5)
