The Boston Overlap Brace is a member of the Boston Brace family of spinal products. It is a versatile, low-priced, easy-to-apply, medium-duty, method for treating most indications where back pain is evident. Results of several hundred B.O.B. treated patients have proven the B.O.B. effective in 80% of the cases. It is highly recommended as an alternative where other bracing methods have been ineffective.
The B.O.B. features a unique anterior opening, 1/8" low-density polyethylene module with a 3"- 4" seamless overlap. This permits a wide range of adaptability to a variety of body configurations. The B.O.B. kit includes a pre-made Velcro closure with formable spring steel inserts for adjustment of abdominal pressure.
