SacroLoc

I’m 64 and this will be my third “Bauerfeind SacroLoc Belt” over the last couple of years. I started with a size 6 belt, then 5, and now 4. When I purchased my first Bauerfeind SacroLoc Belt it was after I had bought a few others with mixed results. I needed a belt that would hold my hips together for the long days it takes for them to heal, which none managed before. Of course the price put me off, as it was 4 times more than most others, and it also seemed more complicated. But I took the risk. And in fact, I wasn’t aware (as my Sacroiliitis hip joint pain was fairly new to me then) how much it was helping. Now two years later, I have found that it is the best belt to do so. Yes, I try and practice the posturing, and developing the habits that may prevent pain episodes, but after healing, I later find myself right back to that intense pain (fyi, tens units do a great job of distracting from the pain). I thought weight-loss might help, so about 6 months ago I started the Zepbound weight management shots (I am loosing between 3 to 8 pounds a month; before that I was trying to loose weight with mixed results). Surprisingly, and unfortunately, my relapse into pain hasn’t changed. Do I do hip surgery next, I’m ignoring that for now. I will only say that I’m happy with the results from the Bauerfeind SacroLoc Belt. When the episode is bad and I have to wear the belt 24/7 for about a month, it is much more comfortable from both it’s comfort as a garment and the relief from gravity on my hip joints. **And no, I didn’t think it was comfortable at first, but compared to those others . . . ** !

I am 63 years old, and I don't know when I started having problems with my 4th spine, but I was able to manage it by using an EXDOL waist belt made in Spain at the beginning of the pain, so I didn't have any major problems. I hurt my knee 9 years ago and my hip joint was bad, and then I hurt my knee again while going down the stairs in mid-December of last year. Then I had problems with my 5th spine, and soon I started having constant pain around my hip joint. Last week, 11 months later, I often walked with my legs bent when I stood up, and soon my legs started to hurt. When I saw this product, I hesitated because it was expensive, made in Germany, and didn't have many reviews. Since it was so inconvenient to live with, I bought it right away, and after wearing it, the pain disappeared and my posture became correct, so I didn't feel any discomfort. I can't tell in a few days whether the hip joint area will be stabilized by this protector or if it's for management purposes. The point is that there is no pain at all when wearing it. That's why I would like to recommend this item to anyone suffering from hip joint pain. I wish they would produce a black version too. 🩷 I also want a black one. Whenever I wear black clothes, black fur or fiber pieces always stick to them and they look dirty, so I really need black.

Wearing this daily for a few weeks helped to calm down my SI joint pain to the point where I only need to wear it intermittently now. Excellent product, although the price seems high.

Arrived opened and clearly was a returned product.

Provides excellent support of the SI joint, improves mobility and reduces pain. Just wearing it for one day made a difference. Highly recommend for any SI patient. Most importantly is the appropriate sizing. Measure accurately to determine the right size.

I have tried many many SI belts and this one beats them all! I have found that wearing it over the skin/under the clothes helps it stay put better, and highly recommend having a Physical Therapist or Physiatrist help you to know how to put it on properly. This is comfortable enough that I can even sleep in it when the SI joint is very bad.

Didn't work for me, sent it back. At least I could return it

First of all, this isn't my first purchase of a Bauerfeind product. I purchased and continually use the GenuTrain Knee Brace. This SacroLoc is a game changer for my Sciatic nerve issue. The Support relieves the pain and discomfort. The constant rolling and popping of the Sciatic is also relieved. I can stand for longer periods of time now. And, the bulging disk in my lower back also benefits from the Support. I won't lie, this is a pricey product, but the relief outweighs the cost hands down. My Orthopedic Surgeon provided Belt, that just did not work due to slipping out of position - this Support does not slip. Thank you for a great product!

Sehr hilfreich

The sacro belt is amazing. I have been battling back issues for a long time. I have three discs that are deteriorating and creating havoc on the nerves as well. The belt holds everything together and gives you relief. It is great for walking, and even helps me with golf. I would highly recommend this belt.

Perfekter Halt und sehr angenehmer Sitz.

for work everyday

Ich habe das Produkt gekauf und nach Erhalt im original Zustand (unbebutzt und original verpackt) zurückgeschickt. Die Retoure gelangte dann irgendwann zur Firma Bauerfeind (Hersteller, Zwischenhänder, ...???). Dort wurde dann die Retoure nicht angenommen, da sie angeblich nach Salbe roch und benutzt wurde. Auf eine Statusmeldung der Retoure kann man lange warten, wenn man sich nicht selber darum kümmert. Nach ca. 6 Wochen erfuhr ich dann von dem Vorgang und wurde gezwungen die Bandage zurückzunehmen - natürlich nur gegen ein ausstehendes Porto in Höhe von 3,80 Euro. Fazit: Für diese Erfahrung ist selbst ein Stern zuviel!
