OPTP The Original McKenzie Lumbar Roll – USA-Made Low Back Lumbar Support for Office Chair & Car Seat Back Support Cushion. The Preferred Lumbar Pillow by Physical Therapists - Firm Density

Seems pretty expensive for foam rubber, but it is well-made, the right size for me, and remains firm. I went with the firm density and am using it for lumbar support in a reclining chair. It provides the needed lower back support without being intrusive. Definitely has made a positive difference, Overall, I'm very satisfied with the purchase.

I got the firm support and it’s perfect! If you’re concerned about it being too firm (in my opinion) it is not too firm. It has just the right amount of squish to be comfy while still being very supportive. I’m 3 months postpartum and work at a desk all day. My PT recommended I roll up a towel for lumbar support to encourage good posture, but I was tired of it not staying put and frankly I wanted more support. I found this and it’s perfect! I just strapped it onto my desk chair and there’s an instant improvement in my posture and comfort! As a mom to a new baby, I’m constantly hunched over in everything I do. So I highly recommend this for good posture!

This is a good product and comes just as it is described. I have one suggestion, perhaps make the strap, that goes around the chair, a little bit longer. My husband uses it in a recliner, and the strap will not go all the way around that type of chair. We bought two of these items, and they work well for straight back chairs and for the car’s seat. The product gives good support, and we appreciate that it comes in two different types of support.

The Original McKenzie Lumbar Roll by OPTP is a game-changer when it comes to providing much-needed support and comfort for your low back while sitting in office chairs or car seats.

Whether you're sitting for extended periods at your desk or on a long road trip, this lumbar roll helps maintain proper alignment and reduces strain on your back.

Another great advantage is the versatility of the Original McKenzie Lumbar Roll. It comes with an adjustable strap that allows you to secure it to any chair or car seat, ensuring it stays in place throughout the day. The compact size makes it easy to bring along wherever you go, whether it's to the office, during travel, or even to use on your favorite armchair at home. Using the lumbar roll is effortless. Simply place it in the curve of your lower back, adjust the strap, and you'll immediately feel the support it provides. The firmness of the roll gently encourages proper posture, which can help alleviate and prevent back pain caused by poor sitting habits.

However, with consistent use, you'll find that it greatly improves your sitting experience and helps alleviate any existing back discomfort. Overall, The Original McKenzie Lumbar Roll by OPTP is a highly effective and durable product that offers exceptional low back support. It promotes proper posture, reduces strain on the spine, and provides ample comfort for extended periods of sitting. Whether you're dealing with chronic back pain or simply want to improve your sitting habits, this lumbar roll is a fantastic investment for anyone in need of reliable and portable low back support.

I have only had this cushion for one day, but the relief that it has given me for my sciatica is immediate and noticeable. I like the firmness and the size, I think that it was definitely worth the money for what it is and I was able to get it quickly when I really needed it which I appreciate. My only complaint is that I actually wish the strap was fully removable, because I find that it gets in the way sometimes, and if I could unclip it when I don't need it that would be great. Update: I actually took one more star off, because over time this pillow became more of a hassle than anything. At some point it stopped helping with my back pain and actually started to make it worse again. The strap is also virtually useless, I tried strapping it to my desk chair as suggested, and it was constantly shifting, and moving up and down, and the strap is too elastic and not nearly substantial enough to keep the pillow where you need it to be. I think you would have much better luck buying something with a more organic design that actually fits the shape of your back. It was not worth saving the money to buy this product.

Workes great

I've been dealing with sciatic issues for a few months and I wish I had bought this sooner. My pain has improved significantly since using this while sitting on the couch or in my car. The firm density is excellent for my soft/plush couch, but it's a bit uncomfortable on my car seat as that is already pretty firm. I may get a regular density one for my car.

This has been the best thing for my back especially working a desk job, it has worked wonder for me and my back is not hurting as much as it used to. The material itself is soft, light weight, and doable to fit on your chair. The support has been amazing and has fixed my posture too.
