BraceAbility SI Joint Belt - Sacroiliac Compression Back Brace for Sacral Dysfunction, Coccyx Pain Relief and Bruised or Broken Tailbone Inflammation Treatment with Hip Support Pads (One Size)

I wear this brace as often as I can.I wasted 8 years with lower back pain on the lower left side of my back where my waists band is. Always in that one spot. X-rays revealed nothing. I tried physical therapist, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and massage therapy before I even got diagnosed with Sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction. Even when a local PT figured out what was causing my pain, the solution was more PT. They did give me the idea of sitting on a tennis ball which helped some. Unbelievable that no one said get a SI brace. Imagine having a knee injury and no one said to mobilize the knee with a brace, but to try all the methods listed above.I received my SI brace last week and felt instant relief as soon as I put it on. I wear it at all the time now. For the first time in years I feel like I may be on my way to recovery from SI joint dysfunction. You truly feel this brace working when you are seated in a office chair or driving for extended periods of time. The small round pads provided allow you to put pressure on the exact spot where the pain is located. The hard brace in the back is great for making sure you keep a good posture while seated. The pull cables are what puts this brace above all the rest. You instantly feel the relief when you pull the cords snug and lock them in with the velcro. I also like to used my belt to apply additional pressure and hold it in place. That also helps conceals it. I do recommend wearing it over a moisture wicking shirt. That will help prevent it from making the lines in your skin.Great brace for SI joint relief.

I must confess, this feels better than the one the Medical Supply Co. here gave to me.

I found this product bulky, and the plastic pads didn't go low enough for my SI joints, maybe better for the lower back. Could be my need doesn't fit with the product, but it says helps SI joint pain. So, I bought one of the band SI joint products and it works great and stays lower, like wearing a thick belt rather than a plastic contraption.

What a difference! For about a year now I have thought that I had sciatica on the right side and then it kept getting worse. I started looking into causes and found that it was more likely the SI joint due to soreness in the hip muscle.I ordered a different SI brace and it helped but was very uncomfortable under clothing. This brace caught my eye due to the pulley system. I've been wearing it for a couple of weeks now and can say that it has made a huge difference. My goal is to stabilize the area for it to heal and then perhaps I can forego the brace. We will see but for now its nice to not be in pain every day.Wearing it under clothing...yes! However, I did have larger pants that I could put on over it.Wearing it while sleeping. Yes! I am able to sleep with it and it does not shift and I believe this is due to the pulley system.Price: Not bad considering its functionality for many different issues; SI, sciatica; lower back and hip issues. A brace from a doctors office would likely be triple the price.

I am a 25 year old, 130lbs, woman and I did not find comfort in this brace. I only received one pressure pad as well and am waiting to hear back from the company for a second one (I only contacted them yesterday so no biggie!) However, when I get the brace just where I need the pressure, I have to adjust the pulley around my waist and it tightens the two black plates closer together, resulting in no support. Also, just when I have it tight enough, it starts to ride up my stomach! I tried it on my skin, on my shirt, right under my belt line...nothing works. I'm sure it works with some people, however this expensive belt doesn't work for me. I have severe SI joint pain so I am in need of a good belt

The brace slid up every time I sat down, or walked. If there was a way to keep it from moving it would be a good product. But I wasted my money!I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!!!!

My overall rating is 5 stars because it's the first product I have purchased that actually seems to work. It takes a bit to get accustomed to wearing it, but it does relieve lower back pain especially caused by hips being slightly unaligned. I love the adjustable straps, which give a better fit. It rarely moves around if you keep the straps tight. It was worth the purchase.

This device has worked better than any other brace or wrap i have ever used. Adjustable corset like cable to adjust to your comfort, velcro super reliable and east to maneuver even with hand joint pain. A+
