The Best Back Supports and Braces to Help with Mobility 

At OPPO Health we know living with back pain can feel like an uphill battle. We’ve all been there – you lift a heavy box, then suddenly you’re dealing with a twinge in your back. This seemingly insignificant discomfort then turns into a persistent, nagging pain by the following day. For some, back pain is the result of an old sports injury or a fall. Others may find the cause is being sat too long in front of a computer and resulting bad posture. No matter the cause, back pain can transform simple daily tasks – like putting on shoes or picking up a shopping bag – into a painful struggle.

We have an wide range of back supports at OPPO Health – with a focus on design, innovative construction and material selection, our supports are intended to optimise support, provide all-day comfort and to remain in position while moving. Our back supports provide compression, pain relief, promote healing and injury recovery to enable daily life to continue and get you back to activities you love.

Back pain is problem that many of us have experienced or will experience at some point in our lives. The discomfort, ranging from mild muscle aches to debilitating, sharp sensations, can be caused by various factors. Our back is a complex structure made of bones, joints, muscles, and ligaments; when any of these components are injured, strained, or affected by certain conditions, pain can arise.

That’s why back supports and braces can be beneficial in providing relief from back pain, treating underlying issues, and preventing future problems. These devices act by providing additional support to the spinal structure, limiting movement that could cause injury, and applying compression that can help reduce inflammation and ease pain. In this article we have selected some of our best back supports to get you feeling yourself again!
