How to wear this Custom TLSO Back Support?
1. Begin with the patient lying down. Carefully log-roll the patient onto his side and place the posterior portion of the SALO brace onto the patient’s back. Align the waistline groove just above the patient’s pelvic bone but below the rib cage. While holding the back shell in position, return the patient onto his back.
