Japet W+: The lumbar exoskeleton that changes lives

An innovation designed to support the back

The JapetW+ is far more than a simple lumbar support. It is a certified exoskeleton medical device (ISO 13485), developed in close collaboration with spine surgeons, rehabilitation specialists, and ergonomists.

This certification guarantees:

  • manufacturing that meets the strictest medical standards,

  • rigorous quality controls,

  • optimal safety for the user.

 

How it works: acting on the spine without inhibiting the muscles

Unlike certain passive supports, the JapetW+ acts as an intelligent shock absorber for the spine, reducing the mechanical load on lumbar structures without reducing natural muscle activity. This means:

  • no muscle dependency,

  • maintained strength and proprioception,

  • dynamic support based on movement.

 

A significant reduction in pain

The JapetW+ works in a precise and targeted way by reducing the pressure exerted on the intervertebral discs, helping to protect the joints from repeated trauma and effectively reduce pain.

Thanks to this unique mechanism:

  • The lumbar region is supported without inhibiting natural muscle activity.

  • The mechanical load on the spine is optimally distributed and cushioned, reducing the risk of fatigue and chronic pain.

  • In many cases, users report a reduction in lower back pain of up to 85%, making daily life easier and supporting return to work.

 

Used for return to work and daily living

The JapetW+ is regularly used:

  • by people suffering from chronic lower back pain,

  • in return-to-work programmes after injury,

  • as daily support to improve quality of life.

Today, more and more private individuals are also choosing the JapetW+ to live better with their pain, gain independence, and resume activities with fewer constraints.

It is a medical device that does not merely help—it transforms users’ daily lives.
