Old Bones Therapy Lower Back Brace with Adjustable Straps | Lumbar Support for Immediate Relief (Back Brace, L/XL, Fits 34-43 Inches) | Improved Version 2.0

Didnt like the price increase from 49.95 to 71.00. We get these for our patients and the price is getting to high. love the brace

So, when this first arrived, I thought I had buyer's remorse. It stunk (like many thing that any rubber parts & come from China do) & it didn't look nice (did not like the red & cross-bones logo - at all). But then, I'm not planning on wearing it in public & the smell dissipated after a few wears. What truly surprised me and more than made up for what I didn't like was how much it helped doing small things that previously would trigger my back issues. Heavy laundry for example. So glad that I bought it ... and *so glad* that I didn't send it back just because it stunk for a bit.

UPDATE: I contacted the seller directly through their website, and the seller replaced the product. I have had no issues with the replacement brace, and it has held up very well.The seller contacted me within hours (on a Saturday, no less), and I had a new brace within days. I have had no problems with the new brace, and it has held up well for months of use.Great customer service and merchandise.I’m leaving the old review below for archiving purposes.ORIGINAL REVIEWI am really disappointed with this product. It seemed well-constructed. It was comfortable. It provided lots of support. It was taller than most braces, which I liked because I am tall, with my height in my torso.I really liked the dual straps that made getting the brace tight very easy.However, after just a month of use, which was not strenuous or daily (mostly for extended periods riding/driving in the car), the boning popped out of its casing.It appears that the casing needs reinforcement and/or the boning needs padding in order to not wear through the casing.Once the boning escapes, it will poke the wearer. If removed, the garment no longer had the structure and support that makes it useful.This was a very short time for this type of wear: I had received the product literally a month to the day before the product broke, and I did not utilize the product consistently during that time. With less than a month of use, it came apart.

I've had my Old Bones Back Brace for almost a week now. I was able to feel results on the first day. I have chronic low back pain and have days where the pain makes it difficult to get my work done. The ice/heat packs are great, and will both work either cold or hot. I use the cold pack with the brace for my pain. It allows for several different adjustments for the amount of pressure needed, and seems very sturdy. It has stays/rigid support in it, to keep the brace from rolling up while it's being worn.I'm no pro on back braces, but very glad I chose this one. It does everything I need to get some relief.Update: almost 7 months, and this brace is truly a “back saver”. I use both packs for ice/ cold packs. I do roll one in a bathroom hand towel before inserting in the pouch on the brace and putting it on. Makes me sweat a bit around the mid section, but that’s not a bad thing. I wear it while bending or lifting most of the time. The times I forget to put it on, are the most painful after times!It helps you remember not to over do, also.It’s held up very well to my busy lifestyle with no real complaints. I still take several meds for my chronic back pain, but this Old Bones brace helps out a lot. Highly recommend.PS. Sizing is weird. I got the XL and it fits my 38” waist and larger stomach area just fine.** Update 9/26/19. I just purchased my second Old Bones Back Brace. Still using my original gel packs, so I didn’t get more of those.I wore my first one on a very regular basis, and it was still working ok. The Velcro was getting worn and letting go on occasion so I decided to get a new one. My waist (stomach) is a little larger, so I went with a 2X this time. Actually fits much better than the XL did.Great product!

This brace is made of very good material, and fits well, without moving around. Having degenerative disc disease, and multiple bulging discs, I look for any alternative for pain relief. I won't take pain medications anymore, like doctors tell me to do, so back pain is part of my daily life. Having this product, I can go about my daily routine, and not have to worry about holding gel packs on my back. Before I had to hold it in place, put it on a flat surface while laying down over it, and any other way possible to keep gel packs in place (I've tried them all). Very hard to do on your back, unless you're way more flexible than me.. This brace gives you freedom, and mobility, while getting relief. That's something very important for me, and if you ever experience my injuries, you'll know what I mean (I wish that on no one). It's very hard to keep them in place normally, also too hot/cold holding by hand continuously, and this eliminates that problem. If you suffer from back pain, and don't want to stop your day because of it, get this product and keep moving. Great for back support, needing cooling treatment, and heat relief through the lined pocket on the inside of the brace. I suggest getting their gel packs, since they are made to fit by size, but any gel pack will work, if it fits in the gel pack holder built in. Whether it's for great back support, or cold/heat treatment, I suggest trying out this product by Old Bones Therapy. I give it ☆☆☆☆☆! Don't waste your money on store bought hot/cold stick on relief, because you can't keep reusing them, and they aren't cheap. This product is a win win, if you need support, or use hot/cold therapy for back pain relief. This is a must have product for me. From someone who has suffered injuries and pain, for over half of my life, I know you won't regret this purchase. Keep on keeping on!

I’ve had lower back pain ever since having my kids and when a friend recommended this, I was excited to try. This product is great! Having the ability to chase my kids around while still icing my back is a game changer. Plus the two packs is a huge bonus. The product is well made and we’ll be getting use out of it for years to come. You won’t regret buying this product!
