Product Description
Over the years, The Original McKenzie Lumbar Rolls have literally helped hundreds of thousands achieve freedom from common low back pain. An adjustable elastic strap lets users secure the roll to standard chair backs and auto seats. Proven quality! An independent laboratory compared the high quality McKenzie Lumbar Rolls, by OPTP, with competitive products and found "...the OPTP Lumbar Roll is more supportive, will not lose its supportive qualities as quickly, and will offer more consistent support longer than the other rolls sampled." An independent laboratory confirmed the superiority of The Original McKenzie Lumbar Roll in a blind random analysis with test rolls from our largest competitors. While the foam used in a competitor's lumbar roll suffered immediate and continued structural breakdown, OPTP's roll suffered no structural breakdown and remained consistent through the test period. The lab's conclusion: "...the OPTP lumbar roll is more supportive, will not lose its supportive qualities as quickly, and will offer more consistent support longer than the other rolls sampled..."

I've got a bad back and the lumbar roll I keep in my car recently, well, rolled out without my knowing. I tried several different more expensive products to replace it, and then went to a local Joanna's Bed and Back store. One of these was twice as expensive there, so I ordered several from The Therapy Connection at HPMS, Inc.
First off, I got them BEFORE Amazon's earliest estimate as to when I'd get it -- so it was amazingly fast and accurate service (I'd definitely buy from them again).
Secondly, I put one on my writing chair last night and I could finally sit in it again! These things are wonderful and just what I need to be able to sit upright for hours. (The chair is a Lazy Boy, and this is the first one of these I've had on it with a strap long enough to go around. It's a very adjustable strap and I'm sure it'll work with the various chairs I need it to work with.)
Now I just have to decide whether the standard or firm works best for me in which chair.
A must for a bad back! November 17, 2007

My PT gave me my first one. Then I bought one of these for my car, my desk at work, and my computer chair at home. Yes, they are a little uncomfortable at first, but you will get used to it. I have a degenerative disc due to back surgery years ago, and have a bad, disabling episode of back pain about once a year. In episodes of back pain, they help alleviate it by aligning your back. If used all the time, it will help prevent episodes which I believe are caused by weeks or months of improper sitting, lifting, etc. I had stopped using my support roll prior to my last episode. No more!
The only drawback is the strap comes undone easily.
I highly recommend.
McKenzie rolls are the GREATEST!! December 11, 2007

If you have lumbar or cervical issues, one the these rolls is an absolute must. Not only do they help curb acute pain, but also help to get your back into the correct postural curve when used correctly. You should also buy 7 Days to a Pain Free Back and Neck. The Therapy Connect has the BEST prices on these rolls anywhere.
If you suffer from neck or back pain, consult your doctor first, BUT get McKenzie's book and a roll. They will change your life to one pain free.
As a massage therapist who has suffered from low back pain for over 40 years, Mckenzie has developed the best method I have encountered for dealing with acute and chronic pain. DO NOT HESITATE TO BUY THESE!!!
glad I bought January 3, 2010

Well worth it; bought the firm & standard for my wife who has more back problems than me. Worked for both of us. Good supplier, a little slow at Christmas but they let me know. All you could expect from the product & the supplier & of course Amazon.

I left my lumbar roll pillow on the airplane and was so upset! I use it ALL the time.
My husband had gotten it for me several years ago and I take it with me everywhere.
I looked it up on Amazon and found it cheaper than on the McKenzie website.
