You Cannot Fix This By Remembering
Your lower back has a curve in it, and that curve is load-bearing. It is the reason you can stand all day without thinking about it.
Every office chair flattens it. The backrest is a straight surface and your lumbar spine is not straight, so there is a gap. Your body closes that gap the only way it can: the pelvis rolls backward and the curve collapses. Then your shoulders creep forward to keep your eyes level, and you are in the posture you keep catching yourself in and correcting for about ninety seconds.
Nobody can hold a position for eight hours. The chair has to stop pushing you out of it.
So we filled the gap. Thin at the top so it does not shove your shoulders forward, thick at the base where the curve actually needs holding.
What the research actually found
Develop real pain from sitting
In a controlled sitting study, 39% of healthy adults became “pain developers” inside a single prolonged session. It is not in your head and it is not weakness.
Less lower-back pain
When the trunk and pelvis were given extra contact support instead of being left unsupported, pain developers reported 47% less low back pain.
Australians
Live with a back problem — roughly one in six of us. If it feels like everyone at your office has a bad back, they do.
Cause of disability
Low back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide. Not a niche complaint, and not something that resolves on its own.

Five signs this is your problem
How it works
Strap it to the backrest
Loop the strap around, tighten. It stops the support sliding down to the seat by mid-morning.
Set it at belt height
Small of the back, not between the shoulder blades. Too high is the mistake almost everyone makes on day one.
Sit back into it
The gap is filled, so there is finally something behind you. You stop holding the posture and the chair holds it.
Stop holding the posture yourself
Nobody can hold a position for eight hours. The chair has to stop pushing you out of it.

The Towel And The Built-In Bump
The rolled-up towel works for about an hour before it unrolls. The lumbar bump built into your chair sits at whatever height the factory chose, which is rarely yours.

What People Say After A Month
Not day one. Month one, because that is when you can tell the difference between a novelty and a change.
A month is long enough to tell
If your lower back is no easier at the end of the day, send it back.

Will the strap fit my chair?
Will the strap fit my chair?
It goes around the backrest and adjusts, so office chairs, dining chairs and most car seats are fine. The awkward case is a deep bucket seat with nothing to loop around.
Where exactly should it sit?
Where exactly should it sit?
At the small of your back, roughly level with your belt line. Too high and it pushes your shoulders forward, which is the mistake most people make on day one. If it feels like it is shoving you, slide it down.
My chair already has lumbar support.
My chair already has lumbar support.
Most built-in bumps sit at a fixed height chosen by the factory, and a fixed height only suits people of one particular build. If yours already sits right for you, you may not need this. If you have been adjusting your seat height to chase it, that is your answer.
Do I need the seat cushion as well?
Do I need the seat cushion as well?
This one addresses the cause. The seat cushion addresses the part you actually feel, which is pressure on the tailbone. Most people end up with both, and the Orthopedic Seat + Lumbar Cushion Set has them for A$129.99 rather than A$169.98.
Can I use it in the car?
Can I use it in the car?
Yes. The strap loops around the headrest posts. A lot of people buy it for the commute rather than the desk.
Can I wash the cover?
Can I wash the cover?
The cover unzips and goes in the machine on cold. Air dry it. The foam is spot-clean only.
Is this a medical device?
Is this a medical device?
No. It is a support cushion for comfort while sitting. It does not treat, diagnose or cure any condition, and results vary from person to person. If your pain is severe, radiating down a leg, or new and unexplained, see a physio or your GP rather than buying a cushion.
Who this isn't for
If your pain is severe, radiating down a leg, or new and unexplained, see a physio or your GP first.
If your chair is a deep bucket seat with nothing to loop a strap around, it has nowhere to anchor.
If the pain is the bone you are sitting on rather than the curve of your lower back, the seat cushion is the piece you want, not this one.
