I have constant upper back pains from bulging discs and lower back pains from a herniated disc and the firm material of this support/pillow applies soothing pressure on my back. You can place it at whichever height or level you prefer and it doesn’t slide down or move around, it stays in place right where you set it. The sides also hug your torso for added support. This product may not get rid of your pain issues but at least it gives your back some support and comfort while you’re using it.
Update: After three weeks of use, I tried moving this support towards my lower back and I agree with those who said this product does not follow the normal curvature of the lumbar spine. However, it still works for me as I use mine to support my mid-back and its shape applies a good amount of pressure on my posterior lower rib cage.
