Neo-G Dorsolumbar Support Brace - Back Support For Early Kyphosis, Rounded Shoulders, Posture Correction, Muscular Aches, Lumbar Support - Fully Adjustable - Class 1 Medical Device - Small - Long

This posture brace is easy to put on and wear, and it fits very securely. I like the wrap-around elastic and the fact that the stays are optional, according to your specific needs. (I need them.)Sometimes the straps irritate around the front of my underarms, but I suppose some of that is to be expected from a product that is designed to force your shoulders back and into proper position. The padding helps ease the irritation, to some extent.The brace definitely helps maintain good posture, and holds the back into alignment to ease tension if you've strained the muscles. It provides reassuring firmness around the midsection and back and helps you stand straight. Fits well under clothes if you need to wear it out.I'd definitely buy it again. If you're trying to choose between two sizes, opt for the larger one - it fits very snugly around the midsection, so if it's too small, it'll suffocate you.

Well this is my second review because I had to purchase another brace. ONLY because the straps that go under your arms run small. I wore the first one for quite some time, but couldn't take the straps any longer. They were cutting under my arms just too much. This is the only issue I have with the brace. Now because my back has gotten much worse, I have to wear the brace all the time, so I ordered another one but the next size up. Straps feel great now. The quality of the brace is extremely well made.I just received this yesterday and tried it this morning while walking. I'm 53 and have numerous spine issues, (fusion, degeneration of spine, spinal curvature). This helped tremendously while I was walking. It gives me superior back support. The extra (removable) padding for the lower spine feels wonderful. Will say they run a little on the small size. So if you are not use to lots of pressure on your stomach, I would say get a larger size. I do not carry my weight in my stomach area, but in the hip/thigh area, but was still tight on my waist. The only other issue that I have, that will probably just be some getting use to is the straps that go under your arms. They rub! However, I am sure there is something I can come up with that will be more comfortable for me. All in all, this brace did exactly what I needed it to.

This back brace is the best I have ever used. I was using one of the main competitors with a similar design for about a year. I wanted to get a bigger size, but that competitor no longer seems to offer one in a large size. I did a lot of searching, and this was the only other option. I hesitated because it’s more expensive, but I’m sure glad I got it! Even though this back brace may look similar to the competitors, I can assure you it’s significantly better. Overall, better build quality, stitched under-arm pads that stay in place, the option of metal or plastic stays, and velcro that faces inward instead of outward. I have ruined so many shirts with the other product having its velcro face outwards. This brace is very comfortable and really helps me lower and upper back aches.

This was a complete waste of money. There is nothing in the product description to indicate that this item is non-returnable, and unfortunately I was in a rush and did not stop to look at the reviews. That was a $70 mistake. The brace straps are complicated and impossible to put on without help. Once I finally got it figured out, I found that the brace was four inches too long for my back - either I can't sit down because it's too low on my hips, or I have a hump on my neck from the top of the brace being too high on my back. Either way it is not good. It definitely does not lie flat under clothing. It's uncomfortable - it felt like I was wearing a backpack and a corset at the same time. It did make my back feel somewhat better while I had it on, but I need something I can wear to help with back pain while I am working - I need to be able to bend, sit, and move around with the brace on. This brace will not work for that purpose. If I'd known I couldn't return it I would never have bought it. 0/10 do not recommend.
