An Effective Treatment Brace for Spondylolysis & Spondylolisthesis

Spondylolisthesis is a common condition that leads to pain and discomfort in your back.

Spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis are closely related conditions that are easily confused with each other. Spondylolysis basically is when the bones that act as the bridge connecting the upper and lower facet joints of the spine weaken, leading to a separation in the pars interarticularis. Spondylolysis is the result of a stress fracture, which causes the bones to shift out of place.

Both of these conditions typically occur at the lowest vertebra of the lumbar spine the fourth (L4) and fifth (L5) lumbar vertebra.

How Does This Lumbar Orthosis Help with Spondylolysis & Spondylolisthesis?

The spine is an intricate structure, and injury to one of its components can throw off its function, causing pain in the lumbar spine and possibly other areas of the body such as the hips, knees, or even the feet.

And while an accident or trauma is certainly to blame for some sources of lumbar pain, simply day-to-day motions or the wear that comes with aging can cause your discs, vertebrae, or facet joints to shift out of position, herniate or crumble.

Treatment of low back pain will vary from case to case, but the need to rest and protect your low back is one constant. Sometimes this alone is enough to ease the pain. In other cases, this is a precursor to surgery or physical therapy and obviously resting and protecting the back is a key component of post-operative care.

Whatever the situation, this brace for low-back pain can help. Easing pressure on the tissues of the spine via abdominal compression can do wonders for easing your discomfort and allowing healing to take place. In addition, the compression also enhances blood flow to the lower back, which speeds the removal of inflammation and encourages healing.
