Abstract
A back brace to provide firm support to the lumbar sacro area of the back, includes an elastic inner wrap that circumferentially stretches around the torso and fastens in the front. The inner wrap carries a back support panel. An elastic outer wrap overlaps the inner wrap with the back support panel between it and the inner wrap. A support pad is carried outside the outer wrap. The support panel carries resilient flexure means that fit in the small of the back when the inner and outer wrap are wrapped around the torso and secured in front. The support pad disburses the supportive force of the support panel about the lumbar sacro area of the back.
