Purpose
Thanks to its compressive knitted fabric, in combinati-
on with stabilising rigid elements and optional straps,
the JuzoPro Lumbal Xtec / JuzoPro Lumbal Xtec Light
orthosis supports the lumbar region of the back, thus
relieving it during movement.
JuzoPro Lumbal Xtec: The sacral pad provides
stabilisation in the end range of motion and, thanks to
friction nubs, has a massaging effect on the muscles.
Here is how to put on your
JuzoPro Lumbal Xtec correctly:
1. Fasten the stabilising girdle as described by your
physician or the orthopaedic technician between
the two rear bars on the fleece belt and press
together firmly. The tip of the stabilising girdle must
point downwards (Fig. 1).
2. To make it easier to put on, slip your hands into the
finger pockets on the fastener parts. Now place
the orthosis around your body (Fig. 2) and close
the touch fasteners on the front of the orthosis in
the following order: First place the left part of the
fastener on your stomach (Fig. 2) and then place the
right side of the fastener tightly across it and fasten
it (Fig. 3 + 4).
The orthosis is properly in place when it covers the ab-
domen without exerting too much (painful) pressure.
The orthosis must be put on, or must be pulled down,
so that the lower edge of the orthosis is situated just
above the groin. The orthosis can be readjusted at any
time by repeating step 2 above.

Please note:
Only wear your orthosis when prescribed by your
physician. Medical aids should only be dispensed by
suitably trained staff of a medical products supplier.
The effectiveness of the orthosis can only be realised
if it is applied correctly. The orthosis is largely
resistant to oils, ointments, skin moisture and other
environmental influences. Certain combinations may
negatively impact on the durability of the fabric. We
therefore recommend that it gets examined regularly
by the medical products supplier. Should the product
become damaged, please consult your specialist
supplier. Do not repair the orthosis yourself – this
could compromise its quality and medical efficacy.
For hygienic reasons, the orthosis is not suitable for
treating more than one patient.
Washing and care instructions
Please observe the care instructions on the textile la-
bel attached to your orthosis. Take the rear stabilising
girdle out of the orthosis, close the touch fasteners
and wash the orthosis in gentle or delicate cycle at
approx. 30 °C. Wash the orthosis separately the first
time (possibility of colour bleeding). If washing by
hand, rinse the orthosis well and allow it to dry at room
temperature. If possible, lay flat. Do not wring it out.
We recommend using the mild Juzo Special Detergent.
To reduce the drying time, you can place the orthosis
on a thick terry towel, roll it up tightly and squeeze it
firmly. Do not leave it in the towel and do not place
it on a heater or in the sun to dry. Please fasten the
stabilising girdle back into the orthosis again when the
orthosis is completely dry. This Juzo product must not
be cleaned chemically. You can wipe the stabilising
girdle clean with a damp cloth. The cover can be
washed just like the orthosis
