Abstract: A light weight, substantially rigid chiropractic brace is disclosed which provides support for the lumbar spine area of a human patient while being comfortably worn, even during ambulation. The chiropractic brace is a bi-valve system comprising a posterior support means including a recessed portion thereof for aligning the lumbar vertebra and an anterior support means including lift means for lifting the patient's abdominal region and locking out any vertical or lateral rocking motions. The chiropractic brace of the present invention also exerts a pelvic tilt to the patient thereby substantially eliminating torque on the lumbar vertebra. The brace aids the body's natural healing process by preventing adverse forces from affecting an injured area.
