The Nebat belt is designed for everyday use in situations where the lower back gets tired or chilled. The most typical cases:
- Long periods of sitting – at the computer, in meetings, on public transport: the belt helps retain warmth and adds a light sense of support.
- Driving – especially on long journeys, when the lower back tenses up from the static posture.
- Working on your feet – after several hours of standing, the load on the lower back increases noticeably.
- Walks and trips in the cool season – the belt keeps the lower back from getting cold in the wind or in a cold room.
It is best to wear the belt directly on the body or over a thin layer of clothing so that it fits more closely and retains warmth more effectively. It should sit so that it does not shift when you move but does not squeeze either – there should be no numbness, redness or feeling of tightness.
How long to wear it is an individual choice: some people put the belt on only when travelling or for the working day, others at specific cool times of day. If you experience discomfort or chafing while wearing it, or unpleasant sensations get worse, take the belt off and, if necessary, see a specialist.
