See I shattered my spine in 1995 . I had surgery without rods just shavings of my hip bone grafted with laminea. My post op rehab consisted of deadlifts , hypers stretching and core power. Thus 20 plus years later I still do as part of my bodybuilding. My doc ( by the way considered the best spine surgeon on planet earth ) said make the muscles along your spine and traverse abdominus strong like your arms . I turned my body into its own belts . As more research has proven that belts and wraps degrade your body . The muscle atrophies. Not good . I tossed my belt in 1995 . Had surgery on spine and at 52 still do squats , presses bent rows. Ironically in my 20s I could not do bent rows without straining my back . Now I workout with 315 on barbell rows. No belt , calf raise with 600 stack no belt . Depending on individual issues, you need to be stronger. Though to me in a meet or only during acute phase of injury use supports . Of course my orthopedic sports medicine surgeon guided me . I do empasize that if you do seek medical guidance a chiropractor is not the first step . They are not appropriate for everyone. Only for specific injury or conditions.
