Back Brace Posture Corrector – Medium, Upper Back Support Posture Brace for Men and Women - Unisex, Shoulder and Spine Support for Physical Therapy – Nude

Ok so I don't review products very often but as you're about to find out I'm very candid in my review.The product itself is very sturdy and the Velcro strapping, like all product from new, is good. Only time will tell on how long the Velcro lastes since it always ends up with carpet, dog, cat, snake and child fluff all inter-twined within it! The other material is like a "breathable" wetsuit type material. Needless to say it becomes less "breathable" when your running for the 16:47 train to Gatwick from London Bridge and ends up more of a back sauna.So the instructions you get are basically a drawing of someone with swollen armpits. And if this happens i recommend seeking medical advice and possibly changing your deodorant. The picture states if this happens your shoulders aren't back enough. However I made a point of thrusting my shoulders toward the centre of my back for the first few days I wore it, needless to say people thought I was having some sort of episode. This still did not stop the inflammation of my armpits. Baffled, I tried the straps tighter for a day then looser the next but the pit burn continued. I read other reviews and found that this was a common side effect for great posture. I put it down to the rough side of the Velcro position being right on your sweat-crevice!After about a week I decided enough is enough I wanted a great posture without the pit-burn! So I looked at the product from all angles and spent many hours in a think tank room of inspiration sitting on a throne of thought. After flushing my throne, I realised that right way up or upside down the product ergonomics are the same! So I upturned the device and set the straps to a medium tight and put it on like a skinny waistcoat. Immediately i was at a comfort level of 9, previously only living at comfort basement flat no 3. The Velcro had all but disappeared, no scratchy nagging mosquito bites in my Lynx department. After a day of use the straps overall needed a touch of loosening but then I could just throw it on, no issues.I've now worn the product for a few weeks and I'm not going to say any typical cliches about how amazing it is, life changing etc....it is. Because put simply it is an alarm clock. What, has this reviewer gone posture mad? No, it is An alarm clock, keep with me here. You know u need to wake up feed the dog, walk the kids and get your money making arse to work right? So you have an alarm clock to remind you to do this, correct, all be it probably a smart phone.Your body knows you should have a better posture and how to achieve this and this device reminds you that it's you alone that can make it happen. The device reminds you that your body needs to be straight and to straighten up. It does not hold you in position as some people expect.The afor mentioned "reminder" relies on your own muscles to do said straightening, which, if like mine, due many hours hunched over an information light box of pixelated hell, haven't been used for a while and do ache like a mother. Like a lot of less-used muscles, if suddenly used they burn like a hot poker to the spine! This eases up after a while and the more u use the less they burn.I hope this has helped your decision on your posture correction choices.No fifth star simply due to the Velcro rash.To use thus product without pit pain, simply turn it upside down, set the straps and slide on. If it's too tight , loosen and repeat!

Very fast delivery product very good quality

This product cost me £13 at the time and from using other similar products this is by far the best one I’ve had, working long hours in the kitchen when your back is slumping a bit this has helped me in the past week it doesn’t rub like other products it stays tight! 10/10 would recommend

I bought this as part of a Christmas gift for my wife. Being a resilient, independent, dare-I-say stubborn woman, she resents any support, but truth be told she could do with something like this. So she put it on briefly 2 days after Christmas when a friend called round after I tried to explain the gift to her (because of course my wife greeted it with nothing by disdain). So my wife tried it on then because her friend wanted something just like it -though it proved too big for her. It seems to be the right size for my wife, but she has worn it too briefly so far to know if it does her or by extension, me, any good.In truth it was a partly selfish gift in two ways: firstly because she looks better when she sits and stands straight. But that does not come naturally to her. Secondly, if she keeps going the way she is, carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders and acting that part, she will eventually need to be lifted herself and I'm afraid the world and HER weight together might prove beyond my capabilities.It does seem like the manufacturers are keen to support their product (no pun intended) and offer after-sales services and advice so I can't fault anything about what I've seen. If it came with an attitude-corrector it might be advantageous, but I guess that's beyond the remit of this device. So in lieu of evidence to the contrary I shall assume this item deserves top marks and reserve the right to modify the rating at a later date once I convince Mrs. Atlas to climb down off her back-bending high-horse saddle and admit mortality.

Little bit okay

Order delivered on time. Product and instruction details absolutely excellent. The company offers excellent service to include contact, refund and direct support. I have already found the benefits within hours. Fantastic product, great company and as usual, Amazon excellent!

I tried if few times as the problem is real of posture and i have noticed my posture changed over the time so bought one of these as if seemed the perfect solutoinVery reasonable in price but not comforable and not easy to use. Also after few uses you just kind of kind be asked to put it on. So in the quite a waste of money.Would recommend they should improvise on fittings so would use more as i dont mind spending more as the problem is real.

When I first got the corrector, it was something that made me feel like I was wearing a schoolbag again, which I wish I had when I was younger because my school bag did give me the bad habit of slouching.At first it did hurt, but that was because I was using muscles that were never really used.That was when I was talking about it with a friend who said that there should have been some guide of excersises you should be doing.Which made me remember the PDF that comes with it in an email!I looked it over (And I refuse to do the positioning of the child) and it was a very good read.Though I am now also doing extra back/shoulder work outs to stretch and get the muscles built up to naturally have my back pull ...well back.The one issue I have with it, which to me does inherently affect me, is the inability to adjust both sides equally so that my shoulders should both pull back at the right position.If there was a way to get it to have both straps on either side adjust at the same time, then this would easily be a 5 star.The reason why this is so important to me is that I did notice that I was sort of slumping one shoulder, while the other was a bit more better positioned.It also made me realize that as a 6 foot 1 male, that I need a better computer desk, chair at both work and home.
