INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Back Belt Fitting Instructions
The ObusForme Back Belt actually has two "belts", inner and outer, to provide a secure fit. The
inner belt is larger, while the outer belt is smaller and more elastic. The back belt is best fitted
while standing. It is most effective when used directly against the skin, but may also be worn over
clothing. The inside of the back belt should face your body.
1. Detach the two ends of the outer belt from the inner belt. Wrap the inner belt around your
back and secure in front with the fastening material. While fitting, ensure the outer belt is not
fastened to the outside of inner belt, as this will affect the fit. When fastened, the inner belt
should fit comfortably and securely without restricting breathing or circulation.
2. Bring one side of outer belt around and stretch firmly in front of your body. Attach fastener.
Repeat with the remaining side.
Gel Pack – Cold Application
For use as a cold pack, place the reusable gel pack in a freezer for a minimum of 4 hours to
achieve optimal temperature and performance. The gel pack will remain flexible even when frozen.
To use, remove from the freezer and insert in the pocket at the back of the back belt.
Gel Pack – Hot Application
For use as a heat pack, the reusable gel pack is heated by placing it in a container of hot water.
The water may be heated in a kettle, on a stovetop or in a microwave oven.
Kettle or Stovetop
1. In the case of a kettle, pour enough heated water into a suitable container to easily cover the gel
pack. For stovetop heating, pour an appropriate amount of water into a large pan. Bring water to
a boil and then remove from heat.
2. Place the gel pack in hot water for 1 minute. Do not boil the gel pack directly.
