• Position the back section centrally over the spine.The orange-coloured lower brace edge
closes over the sacrum. The back shell lies positively in the waist with the waist retraction.
Place your hands in the hand loops at the front 1.
• Guide the brace around your body and position the abdominal plate centrally at the front 2.
• Close VERTEBRADYN ® X.STRONG under the necessary tension. Make sure that the closure
plates lie positively on top of each other 3.

sure that it is comfortable to wear.
• The lower front end of VERTEBRADYN ® X.STRONG should be flush and parallel to the thigh
when seated and should not cause pressure in the groin 5.
