BraceAbility 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 how to make bigger it is good. It does ride up some when sitting but adjust it lower and you should be ok. Ware it over a t-shirt or something cause it will itch you, But I love how you can adjust the tightness, great support. Worth it to buy wish I had seen it sooner. Don't wait if you have back problems this can help you. Would buy again.

This brace provides great lower back support.I have degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis. Could barely work in the yard for any length of time without debilitating back pain.This brace is so supportive that now I can work in the yard and not have severe back pain later that day. It is a little cumbersome to wear. However, it’s worth it. I highly recommend for lower back support.

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.

This is the best back brace I've ever owned. I've tried countless. I have been a nurse almost 20 years, still at bedside, and I have a disc injury from a long time ago. I can't work without a back brace. I threw my back out again and was looking for what I consider improvments in design and had key features - slightly wider belt for less abd constriction & more support, larger back support area, not bulky, pully system is a must. Incredible. I do have to add foam inserts (from another product) in the back for more conformed support around spine (which are velcro and attached perfectly). That would be the only improvement I would suggest.

I was hoping this brace would help with my chronic lower back pain AND stay in place. It only worked when standing. I had to constantly re-adjust it while wearing. It rode up when sitting.😞Thought it would help me get some work done around the house that I use to do effortlessly. It did not. I have a regular back brace used to lift heavy items that works the same as this brace! BraceAbility was no better- for my condition. Returned it via UPS on 29 May 20. I have been notified by UPS that it was received 4 June 20 to the address on the return shipping label. Could not return thru Kohl's. Closed in my area.🙄I gave it a shot. Maybe it will work for you.

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.

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.

I needed a little more than L5-S1 support. This brace has been great. The only complaint is how mesh sides have lost their support. Velcro is great.
