Medical-Grade Butterfly Pad
Most devices make you stick on separate electrodes one at a time, twisting to reach spots you can't see. Lumera's butterfly pad covers your entire lumbar region in a single placement. No help needed. No mirror. No guessing if it's in the right spot.
Three Buttons. That's The Whole Remote.
Mode. Up. Down. Every protocol, every intensity level, controlled by your thumb from the armrest of your chair. No scrolling. No screens. No squinting. If you can work a TV remote, you're overqualified.
The Protocol That Makes You Stop And Think "What Was That?"
Somewhere in those 10 precision protocols is the one that hits your muscles differently. You'll feel something shift. Not pain. Not a buzz. A contraction deep enough that you realise those muscles are still in there. And with 29 intensity levels within each protocol, you're not jumping from "barely there" to "too much." You dial up one level at a time until your body says "that one." Most people find it in the first week.
Charge It On Sunday. Forget It Until Next Month.
One USB charge. Up to 10 sessions. No batteries to replace, no cables during use, no dying halfway through. The device that doesn't ask you to think about it.
Real Stories Real Results
One Mechanism. Every Diagnosis.
Different conditions. Same muscle problem.
Whatever your diagnosis says, the underlying challenge is often the same: the deep muscles that stabilise your lumbar spine have gradually weakened and switched off. Lumera targets those muscles directly. Not the diagnosis. The muscles every diagnosis depends on.
Your spinal canal has narrowed. That's structural and Lumera can't change it. But the muscles around that narrowed canal have been wasting for months or years because of the pain. When those muscles weaken, your spine loses support, your walking distance shrinks, and your legs go heavy faster. Lumera is designed to help reactivate those muscles so your spine gets more support from the tissue around it, even if the canal itself hasn't changed.
A disc has bulged or ruptured. That's what's pressing on the nerve. Lumera can't push the disc back in. But your body's response to that pain was to shut down the deep muscles around the affected segment. Those muscles have been dormant for months, maybe years. The less they work, the less stable that segment becomes, the more load the damaged disc takes. Lumera is designed to reactivate those muscles so the area around the herniation has more support.
Your discs have been losing height and hydration over years. The vertebrae are closer together. The joints are stiff. That process won't reverse. But the muscles that should be compensating for the lost disc height have been weakening at the same time because pain made you move less and moving less made the muscles waste. Lumera is designed to reactivate those muscles so your spine has more support as it adapts to the changes.
The pain running down your leg comes from a compressed or irritated nerve in your lower back. Lumera doesn't treat the nerve. But the muscles around the segment where that compression is happening have likely switched off. When those muscles go dormant, the segment becomes less stable, which can increase the load on the nerve. Lumera is designed to reactivate the deep stabilising muscles around your lumbar spine to help support the area where the problem originates.
You might not have a specific diagnosis. Your MRI might look "normal." Your GP might have called it non-specific or mechanical. But the pain is real, and the muscle wasting is real. Research shows that multifidus atrophy occurs even in non-specific chronic back pain and does not automatically recover when the pain resolves. Lumera is designed to directly stimulate those muscles regardless of whether you have a named condition or not.
You had the surgery. It helped, or it didn't. Either way, the muscles around your lumbar spine spent months weakening before you reached the operating table, then more months weakening during recovery. Surgery fixes the structure. It doesn't rebuild the muscles around it. Lumera is designed to help reactivate those muscles whether you're preparing for surgery, recovering from it, or dealing with ongoing pain that the procedure didn't fully resolve.
Three Steps. No Learning Curve.
If you can stick on a plaster and press a button, you can use Lumera.
Clip. Peel. Place.
Click the device onto the pad. Peel off the backing. Press it onto your lower back. The butterfly shape finds the right spot — no mirror, no help needed.
Pick Your Protocol.
Grab the remote. Press + sign. 10 precision protocols. 29 intensity levels. Start at 1. Turn it up until you feel a deep, comfortable pulse. Most people find their level within the first few sessions.
Sit Back. 15 Minutes.
Read the paper. Have a cup of tea. The device does the work — sending targeted pulses into the deep muscles around your spine while you rest. When it's done, it stops automatically.

Your First 6 Weeks With Lumera
Follow your progress and see what's ahead on your path to success
First Day
15 minutes in your chair. The first pulse feels strange for about ten seconds. Then your muscles respond to a signal they haven't received in months. You sit there thinking, "That's what they've been missing."
You Find Your Protocol.
You stop guessing. One of the 10 protocols hits differently. A contraction deep enough that you realise those muscles are still in there. The session becomes something you look forward to, not something you have to remember.
The Mornings Shift.
Less bracing to get out of bed. Getting dressed stops feeling like a negotiation with your own body. Nobody else notices yet. You do.
You Walk Past The Bench.
The one you usually stop at. The legs don't go heavy as fast. You make it to the end of the road without sitting down. One morning you get round the shop without leaning on the trolley. You don't say anything. You just do it.
You Say Yes To Something.
The visit you would have turned down. The outing you stopped suggesting. The afternoon with the grandchildren you gave up planning. You say yes. Your back is still your back. But it stopped making your decisions for you.

Common Asked Questions
TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. It sends pulses to your surface nerves to interrupt pain signals. That's why the relief stops the second you take it off. Lumera uses NMES, Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation, which sends targeted pulses deeper into the muscles themselves. It's designed to reactivate the deep stabilising muscles around your lumbar spine that pain and inactivity have switched off. Same family of technology. Different target. Different purpose.
This is the number one complaint we read hear about other devices. Lumera uses a medical-grade butterfly pad with clinical-strength adhesive designed for a full 10 to 15 minute session. One pad covers your entire lumbar region so there's no repositioning, no peeling corners, no taping them down. When the adhesive eventually wears out after several weeks of daily use, replacement pads are available at a fraction of what most competitors charge.
A replacement pad pack costs £14.99 and lasts approximately 4 to 6 weeks with daily use. That's less than a single prescription co-pay. We also offer bundle packs with the device so you're covered for your first 3 or 6 months without needing to reorder.
You can do it yourself. The butterfly pad is one piece that covers your entire lower back. You peel the backing, reach behind, and press it on. No mirror needed. No individual electrodes to position. No asking your partner to stick four pads in the right spots. The wireless remote means you control everything from your lap once it's on.
Three buttons on the device. Three buttons on the remote. Power. Up. Down. No app. No Bluetooth. No screen to navigate. No manual you need a magnifying glass to read. We include a large-print quick-start card with three steps. Most people are using it within five minutes of opening the box.
Lumera cannot widen a narrowed spinal canal or repair a damaged disc. It's not a treatment for any structural condition. What it's designed to do is reactivate the deep muscles around your lumbar spine that have weakened as a result of these conditions. When those muscles get stronger, your spine gets more support from the tissue around it. It works on the muscles, not the bones or discs. That honesty is exactly why it's worth trying.
NMES has been used in clinical rehabilitation for over 40 years. However, do NOT use Lumera if you have a pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or any active implanted electronic device. If you have metal implants near your lower back, epilepsy, cancer, are pregnant, or have any concerns, please consult your GP before use. We include a full list of contraindications in the box and in your digital welcome guide.
This varies person to person. Some customers feel the muscle activation working in their first session. In terms of functional changes like walking further or easier mornings, most people tell us they start noticing subtle shifts in week two or three. We recommend using it daily for at least 30 days before drawing conclusions. That's why we give you 365 days, not 30.
Then you send it back and we refund every penny. You have a full year. 365 days. We cover the return postage. There's no restocking fee. No store credit. No chatbot. You speak to a real person based in Ireland. We can do this because most people keep it. But you shouldn't have to take our word for that.
A £25 TENS unit sends a fixed generic pulse to your surface nerves to temporarily block pain signals. It typically has 2 to 5 modes, wired pads that lose adhesion after a few uses, and a 30-day guarantee if you're lucky. Lumera uses NMES technology with 10 precision protocols and 29 intensity levels, a wireless one-pad design with a separate remote, and a 365-day guarantee with free return postage. One blocks pain while it's on. The other is designed to rebuild the muscle support your spine has been losing. They're different tools for different jobs.
