Back support devices for use in supporting a lower back region of an
individual in a seated position are disclosed. The back support device
can include a flexible, double-ended back support member adapted to
provide lumbar support to the user's lower back, and a number of elastic
knee straps extending from the ends of the back support member each
forming a loop that can be attached to the user's knee when in a seated
position. The back support device can be equipped with adjustment
mechanisms for adjusting the length of the elastic knee straps and/or the
length of the back support member. The back support member may further
define an interior pouch that can be configured to receive a thermal
pack, vibration element and/or other therapeutic device, and which can be
used to store the back support device when not in use.
