DonJoy Actistrap 2.0 Back Support
The DonJoy Actistrap 2.0 Back Support is an updated lumbar support brace designed to provide firm lower-back compression, postural support, and adjustable comfort during everyday activity. It is commonly used by people managing acute or chronic low back pain, muscular weakness, or situations where a healthcare professional recommends external lumbar support.
The Actistrap 2.0 combines elastic compression with supportive stays and adjustable pull straps, giving customers a practical balance of support and mobility. It is available in two back-height options — 21 cm and 26 cm — so users can choose the amount of lumbar coverage that best suits their body type, comfort preference, and clinical recommendation.
Firm lumbar support for everyday movement
- Updated DonJoy Actistrap 2.0 design for lower-back support
- Available in 21 cm and 26 cm back-height options
- Adjustable bilateral pull straps allow compression to be fine-tuned
- Four semi-rigid dorsal stays help support the lower back
- Two removable abdominal stays provide optional added front support
- Dual hand loops help make the brace easier to apply and tighten
- Designed to provide support while still allowing normal daily movement
Who Is This Back Support For?
The DonJoy Actistrap 2.0 may be suitable for customers who need more support than a basic elastic back belt, but who do not necessarily require a larger rigid LSO-style brace. It can be used as part of a conservative care plan for low back pain or muscular weakness when external lumbar compression and support are recommended.
Common reasons people choose the Actistrap 2.0
- Acute lower back pain
- Chronic lower back pain
- Muscular weakness around the lower back
- Need for firmer compression during daily activity
- Preference for an adjustable lumbar brace instead of a simple elastic belt
- Postural support for the lower back during standing, walking, or light activity
Important fitting note
For best results, the first application should be reviewed with a healthcare professional when possible. The brace should be centred over the lower back, with the back stays positioned on either side of the spine rather than directly on top of it.
Actistrap 2.0 vs the Original DonJoy Actistrap
The DonJoy Actistrap 2.0 is the updated version of the original DonJoy Actistrap back support. The original Actistrap is being cleared out as remaining inventory sells through, while the Actistrap 2.0 is the newer version going forward.
Customers who previously used the original Actistrap will notice that the Actistrap 2.0 keeps the same general purpose — firm elastic lumbar compression with supportive stays and adjustable pull straps — while updating the design, fit options, and application details.
| Comparison | Original DonJoy Actistrap | DonJoy Actistrap 2.0 |
|---|---|---|
| Main Purpose | Firm elastic lumbar support with adjustable compression | Updated firm lumbar support for low back pain, muscular weakness, and everyday postural support |
| Compression | Adjustable compression using bilateral pull straps | Adjustable bilateral pull straps for customized compression and postural control |
| Back Support | Supportive dorsal stays for lower-back stability | Four semi-rigid dorsal stays to help support the lower back |
| Front Support | Front abdominal support depending on model/version | Two removable abdominal stays for optional added front support |
| Application | Hand/finger assist features for tightening | Dual hand loops for easier application and controlled tightening |
| Height Options | Previously offered primarily as a taller lumbar support | Available in 21 cm and 26 cm back-height options |
Replacing the original Actistrap?
- Choose the Actistrap 2.0 if you want the updated DonJoy version with current sizing and height options.
- If you previously used the original Actistrap, measure your waist again before ordering, as sizing should always be confirmed using the current DonJoy sizing guide.
- The 21 cm version offers a lower-profile fit, while the 26 cm version provides taller lumbar coverage.
Original Actistrap clearance stock
The original DonJoy Actistrap is being cleared out as remaining inventory sells through. The Physio Store may still have limited clearance stock in select sizes. View remaining original DonJoy Actistrap inventory.
21 cm vs 26 cm Height Options
The DonJoy Actistrap 2.0 is available in two dorsal heights. Both versions use the same waist sizing, but the height changes the amount of vertical coverage through the lower back.
| Height | Best For | Coverage | Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| 21 cm | Lower-profile lumbar support | Shorter back panel | May be preferred by shorter users, people who sit often, or customers who want less brace height through the trunk |
| 26 cm | More vertical lumbar coverage | Taller back panel | May be preferred when more support surface area is desired through the lower back |
How to choose between 21 cm and 26 cm
- Choose 21 cm if you want a lower-profile brace or less height through the torso.
- Choose 26 cm if you want taller lumbar coverage and a more supportive feel through the lower back.
- If a healthcare professional prescribed a specific height, follow that recommendation.
Sizing Guide
Measure around the waist. If you are between sizes, consider how much compression you need and whether you prefer a snug or slightly less restrictive fit. For medical bracing, follow your healthcare professional’s sizing recommendation whenever one has been provided.
| Size | Waist Circumference | 21 cm Part Number | 26 cm Part Number |
|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 56–68 cm | 82-0072-1 | 82-0073-1 |
| S | 68–82 cm | 82-0072-2 | 82-0073-2 |
| M | 82–98 cm | 82-0072-3 | 82-0073-3 |
| L | 98–116 cm | 82-0072-4 | 82-0073-4 |
| XL | 116–136 cm | 82-0072-5 | 82-0073-5 |
| XXL | 136–156 cm | 82-0072-6 | 82-0073-6 |
How to apply the brace
- Open the belt and loosen the side straps.
- Place the brace around the waist and centre it over the lower spine.
- Use the hand loops to wrap and secure the main front closure.
- Fasten the right side over the left side.
- Pull both lateral straps forward evenly until the desired support is reached.
- Secure the straps to the front closure using the hook-and-loop fasteners.
- Readjust compression as needed during the day.
