McKenzie Slimline Lumbar Support Pillow

McKenzie SlimLine Lumbar Support Pillow Overview

The McKenzie SlimLine Lumbar Support Pillow, whose shape resembles a crescent moon, is designed for you to experience optimal comfort and relief from lower-back pain and some related pains. This lumbar pillow support is designed to promote correct spinal alignment and sitting posture. Its slim profile makes it perfect for use with bed wedge pillows, as it fits snugly against the wedge pillow on its flat back side. It offers just enough width, at 2½ inches, to be substantial without interrupting your body’s alignment as you sit up, recline or rest on your back wedge pillow.

The McKenzie SlimLine Lumbar Support Pillow’s high-quality polyurethane foam core ensures exceptional comfort while the removable cover, made from 100 percent polyester, is easy to clean and features a moisture-wicking, nonwrinkle design.

This versatile back support cushion can also be used in a variety of settings, including office chairs, automobile seats, kitchen and dining room chairs, airplane seats, restaurant chairs and more, thanks to an adjustable 1½-wide elastic hook-and-loop strap that easily fits most chair backs.

McKenzie SlimLine Lumbar Support Pillow: Brian Rossiter's Personal Experience

WedgePillows.net creator Brian Rossiter bought numerous wedge pillows starting in 2015. He is a enthusiast of wedge pillows and their accessories as they help improve ergonomics and his body’s posture while he sits up and uses laptop and tablet computers in bed and reclines in bed while reading, watching TV, playing video games and meditating.

Brian Rossiter has also embraced a near-hour-long daily routine of posture exercises. These safe, effective and scalable exercises enabled him to reverse chronic neck pain, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome and cubital tunnel syndrome. He guides others to lead pain-free lives via his Posture Exercises Method. He knows that lots of equipment touted as beneficial for the body—including many lumbar support pillows sold in the marketplace—can actually lead the body from true wellness and alignment.

When a person’s body is pressed against a back wedge pillow that offers zero or limited lower-back support, the pelvis winds up slumping backward, leading to a rounded lower back. This can affect the body in many ways when a person sits upright in a 90-degree-angle chair, stands, walks and moves in other ways. Likewise, use of a lumbar support pillow that is too high can unnaturally force the pelvis and lower back too far forward, resulting in a posture condition referred to as swayback.

Brian Rossiter offers his backing to the McKenzie SlimLine Lumbar Support Pillow because he believes its 2½-inch height to be ideal for many if not most back pillow wedge users. Some might desire The Original McKenzie SuperRoll Lumbar Support Pillow, however, for its 2-inch height. Additionally, some with wider frames and carrying additional weight might not get the lower-back support they need from this pillow, so it is important to pay close attention to product measurement specifications when browsing lumbar support pillows.
