Lumbar Support Belt for Lower Back Pain - Corset Brace for Men and Women, Scoliosis, Sciatica, Spinal Stenosis, Herniated Disc Relief - FSA Eligible, Fits 28" - 60" Waist

Once I figured out the directions on how to put it together and use it, what a surprise! I have both scoliosis and spinal stenosis, which cause me a lOT of pain. I am 83 years old, and still do all our yardwork, as well as pool maintenace. Once put on, I pulled the added straps on the side. I have never had anything that would give me the support I needed. Once I pulled those two straps, as tight as I could, I heard a "POP". It was from my lower back. The pain was gone!!! I guess I should have marked out where the spinal pain was located, but, now, I know I do NOT need the "laminectomy" my now EX spine doc advised. I have been all day without wearing it, and have no pain. What a wonderful product!!!

This back brace is fantastic. I fractured my spine a few years ago and the hospital gave me a brace like this one. However, I have gained weight and I wasn't able to use it anymore. I have tried 3 other braces, but they didn't support my back in the areas I needed. This brace fits great, and it supports my lower back and a little of the middle part of my back. I have a short torso. I highly recommend this brace if you are looking for one that you can adjust the tension and supports the lower part of your back. The only problem I have with this brace is that, because I have a short torso it sometimes digs into my mid belly roll only because I am fat lol.

Comfortable, and fits well under clothes without being too bulky as you can see from the photos. I am wearing this during activities to keep me immobilized from certain movements and help my posture, as I had an L4-L5 micro discectomy a month ago and I’m on movement restrictions for three months. It is great in the back, but the back panel is about 2 inches longer one at the top one at the bottom. The band doesn’t have those extra inches in the front so the band rides up, which is not great for those with a long torso. The adjustable band is excellent, will fit a lot of different shapes and sizes. I’m just under 5’9” and buy tall clothes too for this exact reason things are too short like this band. I have switched to another brace for most of the day one that has much more torso coverageI wear this when I walk for exercise and drive or other things that require me to have a little more restriction and firmness in the back. Would still recommend this but note this limitation for those with long torsos who may need a second brace with longer boning.

I have a herniated disk and my L2 L3 are narrowing. Threw out my back making the bed (yea something that simple) was miserable for weeks. I borrowed my dads Aspen Corset brace fit by an orthopedic doctor when he had lumbar fractures a few years ago and I noticed the difference immediately. The stability is incredible allowing my back to heal within a few days. Got me thinking to get one for myself called his doctor's office was told it would cost $1300 and requires a prescription so another $250 for the visit. So I compared the Aspen brace to this one, visually, the back lumbar corset MUST BE AS TALL and it is!! Feels just like the Aspen brace in the back except the front is less bulky more comfortable and can be warn under clothes. The pully system is an absolute game changer!!! I took one star off because the corset string could be thicker like the expensive Aspen medical brace but for the price I cant really complain so I'll come back and upgrade to five stars if the string holds up. OVERALL JUST THRILLED to have this product and it's priced right. The only warning I would give is your back literally does nothing while wearing this brace both my doctor and physical therapist told me not to wear it indefinitely because over time it will make my back weaker. Please follow your Doctor or Physical therapist advice I am on an exercise routine hoping I won't need it for much longer. Good luck! UPDATE to five stars the strings have held up to repeated use. The best brace on the market stop buying the cheaper velcro ones you deserve the one and only brace you'll ever need. UPDATE ONE YEAR strings have held up and I've lent the brace to my fiance who is larger around the waist.

Good Support but the mesh material did not help at all with breathable type material, once removed my shirts were noticeably wet with sweat. It also slid up my body with the material being a kind of nylon.

O.K., I hesitated on ordering this thing, as it looks like a strait jacket. On reconsideration, it has to look like that, to provide the needed support to the back. I can definitely feel the area of the back that is getting supported, when I pull the cord to tighten it up. I specifically could feel the area of the back that bothers me, to which I pulled a little tighter. I have found that this item is effectively, when positioned/tightened properly. You need to make sure that you have it in the proper area of your back, and do not pull the handles too tightly, as it may affect your breathing (at least it did to me). The other issue, and again this may be just me, it caused some heat/small sweat in my back. I could not wear this outside on a warm day, and DEFINITELY NOT on a hot day. My only other small gripe is that it is a hand washable item. For my initial usage, I just am wearing it around the house, over my shirt. If I wear it out, I would want it under my shirt, which means on my body. That is where the hand washing would come into play, where if you are wearing it frequently, next to your body, you would need to clean it often. Overall, not really a big deal, if you want you back to feel o.k., just a small annoyance. Your choice, clean, or have your back hurting. I will clean, than you.

finally, after trying 3 different braces, this is the one...the waist belt is adjustable for anyone (i'm a male with a 40" waist), as well as the drawstrings for any tension that suits you...it's great support.

Mine arrived today and I immediately noticed that it doesn't have thumb loops in the straps as advertised. No big deal, just wondering why. I must say, it does feel good on and I am hoping it gives me some stability and relief from my chronic back pain after a fusion 2 years ago. I did notice that when I sit, it rides up and I have to adjust it when I get back up.

Easy to use fantastic support

Les barres en fer du corset, qui est censé être au milieu des vertèbres, étaient sue les côtés. Donc ça me faisait mal après l’avoir porté une journée. Je l’ai renvoyé au vendeur

This is the first time I have used a support, I have lower back stenosis. I like to garden and this allows me to do this. I wear when going to do housework etc. I like the individual control I have and has made big difference for me. Only thing that annoys me is that the control strings sometimes become tangled. Small price for the relief it gives me. I hang neatly to avoid Velcro picking up dog hair etc. so glad I bought this.

Fits well. Gives back good support
