This one works differently. It is a rigid frame with two mechanical lift columns,\none at each side. You strap it on, then work a small lever on each housing to raise the columns,\nwhich pushes the padded top pads up under your lower ribs while the base stays planted on your\npelvis. That is at-home traction: it makes vertical space instead of squeezing horizontally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-lumbar-decompression-belt-home-traction-device\/02_worn_over_shirt_standing.jpg\" alt=\"A man standing at home wearing the rigid traction brace over a plain t-shirt, one lift housing visible at his side\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"ge-note\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCorrection to an earlier version of this page: this brace does not inflate.\u003c\/strong\u003e The\ncopy that used to sit here described a pump and an air bladder. There is no pump, no bladder and no\nbattery on this device. The lift is entirely mechanical, driven by the lever on each housing, and\na small gauge strip between the steel columns shows you how far you have raised it.

It is not, and we are not\ngoing to pretend otherwise. The two housings are hard plastic and roughly palm-sized, the columns\nstand proud of them, and the whole frame is rigid. It goes over a t-shirt and under a loose jacket,\nor it is visible. If you want something you can hide under a fitted shirt at work, this is the\nwrong product and a soft compression belt is the right one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-lumbar-decompression-belt-home-traction-device\/05_seated_at_desk_wearing.jpg\" alt=\"A woman seated at a desk chair at home wearing the traction brace over her clothes\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ge-grid\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ge-cell\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ge-k\"\u003eType\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ge-v\"\u003eRigid mechanical lumbar traction brace\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ge-cell\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ge-k\"\u003eLift\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ge-v\"\u003eTwo lever-driven steel column assemblies\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ge-cell\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ge-k\"\u003eGauge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ge-v\"\u003eMarked strip between the columns\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ge-cell\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ge-k\"\u003eFastening\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ge-v\"\u003eWebbing straps with slide buckles\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ge-cell\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ge-k\"\u003eColor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ge-v\"\u003eGray and taupe\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ge-cell\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ge-k\"\u003ePower\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ge-v\"\u003eNone.
