Clever Yellow Premium Back Support Belt, Back Brace, Lumbar Support Belt, Lower Back Support for Men and Women, Back Braces for Lower Back Pain, Sciatica Pain Relief Products (L)

I have extremely aggressive arthritis that affects every single joint in my body on a seriously painful level and as a result, have found it VERY hard to find products that genuinely provide decent, long-lasting relief for my symptoms... In the past 15 years, pertaining specifically to this [lumbar/back] issue, I have tried a plethora of different back supports that offer a varied & generally limited range of relief from such aches & pains. I had pretty much given up hope as I have owned & tested so many, from generic versions, to medical-grade variants (and even improvised ones), but never found that 'complete' support which provides a solid, consistent 'resting-point' + comfortable, long-lasting support... until I decided to test this one... Honestly, this back support is EVERYTHING I have ever been searching for my whole life!.. It offers such a life-changing level of support that I was almost upset that I had not found it before! I mean, I have used similar ones, but they always ended up causing unbearable discomfort or irritation in some way, which is what makes this product stand-out from the rest... I feel no discomfort, no persistent urge to re-adjust the belt in any way, no need to take breaks or use it in an unconventional fashion; it is perfect the way it is and it is also versatile! It is of reasonable, sufficient size that actually covers the area which back supports are supposed to - most others usually fall short or are way too small and keep 'riding' + folding up/down frequently, whereas when wearing this belt, it will stay in the desired position without any sort of movement whatsoever, until you decide to take it off (sometimes that has been for up to 20 hours during a bad 'spell' with my arthritis). The best part I like about this belt, is that you don't need to tighten it whilst you are putting it on (like a lot of other belts) or have to tighten it via a single strap on one side to give yourself awkward/off-balance support that gradually becomes slacker - you literally just strap it loosely/normally around the body first, with the main strap and then the 2 bands, either side, are the mechanism by which you tighten the belt and, by design, allows you to have FULL control over the level of support the belt provides, specifically tailored to your personal needs + the straps can be re-adjusted at any time, whenever you wish, without having to lose support! Wearing this belt for the first few times really enlightens you to the significant difference it makes to improve your posture and effectively reduce/eliminate the aches & pains in the spinal region! This is the best back support belt ever! An all-rounder that scores major points in every field. It's an exceptional product which can swiftly eliminate any developing injuries that I would otherwise sustain during my 'worse' stages/phases (which come without warning, at random times), so I always keep it within reach for whenever I get that distinctive 'stabbing-ache' sensation in my back. The support struts are not intrusive and can NOT be felt (well, not individually, not like they are 'poking' you), you can not distinguish between any of them whilst wearing the belt - it just feels like a satisfying 'squeeze' that contours to your body, at whatever pressure you adjust it to... I personally believe that the belt is of perfect 'thickness', not too thin, not too thick... just right. One thing I can say for certain, is that, the materials are of a remarkably high-quality and the level of care that went into the design of this product, makes this a masterpiece! True craftsmanship skills went into the production of this belt and I am grateful for that! The different materials have a superior, incredibly exquisite 'feel' to them and appear to be highly durable/resistant to damage + wear & tear - it's like a premium product but it is affordable; a real bargain for a great-quality support belt - I would definitely recommend this, without question! I use it all the time! (It does, inevitably, make you sweat a little underneath, but that's to be expected of a decent support belt - it's the comfort + support + relief that counts!

really good quality, not cheap fakes. help me with my back pain. perfect support

Fits well but bit scratchy on skin. Comfortable to wear and supports lower back very well. Velcro fastening easy to attach and strong. Just hoping it eases pain from disc damage.

I had a sudden back pain recently and thought I would try this to help me through. I have used other supports in the past but they were far more flimsier than this one. This is a really great support with a double locking mechanism using Velcro. The first is to tighten the belt around your waist and the second is to create an even tighter fit which both can be adjusted to suit. Without going into any great detail the most important factor is whether or not I feel the belt has helped me and the answer is an undeniable YES. I wish I had bought this belt sooner as it really made a significant difference supporting my back and helping to eliminate any sudden pain. It was comfortable enough to wear and it just helped me get through the day far easier. Absolutely worth the money for what I really needed it to do and it’s there if I ever needed to use it again. I would highly recommend this product.

Great, easy to adjust. This is my second purchase, one for work and one for home. Gives me confidence when moving around and reminds me to be careful when bending. Must admit it is a bit difficult to bend and pick something up from the floor when wearing, but that’s the whole point of it supporting your back. Keeps your back warm too. Not to be worn continually tho (advice from my Osteopath).

I’ve had sciatica for many years which led to me having a microdiscectomy 10 years ago. The operation was successful in terms of me being able to have a lot more freedom of movement and not being in agonising pain every day. However, I still have chronic back pain and experience sciatic pain which comes and goes. Positives about this product are: 1. This back brace really helps as a preventative measure to reduce the risk of injury. I always wear it if I know I’m going to lift something heavy. 2. Helps speed up recovery when I have sciatic flare-ups. 3. Recovery from back pain is faster when wearing this brace. 4. Well made. I have had two of these during 7 years (due to weight loss) and the first one lasted for 5 years and is still going strong (given to a family member), current one is just as good. 5. Supportive boning all around. Others I have used have been either too flimsy or too restrictive. 6. The height of brace I find works really well in terms of the area it supports. 7. Good support whether standing or sitting. 8. Relatively comfortable even when carrying out activities that require bending or during exercise. 9. Strong velcro that stays stuck! This does not pop open. 10. Obviously no brace is completely comfortable but this is supportive and makes you aware of your posture. Negatives: 1. The only negative I can think of is that if you have weak shoulder/arm/wrist pain it may be difficult for you to fasten the brace to the desired tension. I have had a shoulder injury so have experienced this personally, however, someone else will be able to help you fasten it easily enough or you could use place your feet apart, place one hand on a wall and use this to push against and fasten the brace to a better supportive tension. I’d really recommend this as a preventative and recovery aid if you have back problems or sciatica or if you want to ensure that you protect your back during heavy lifting.

I have bought and tried two of these in the space of 3 weeks. I found them extremely good at doing what they say, I got instant relief for my back pain and they were comfortable and supportive during day to day activities. However in both cases within a week they had started coming apart at the stitching which is such a shame because they really do work.

A great support belt, I've used a narrow version in the past which was ok but not great. This belt is nice and wide so offers a greater amount of support. I first put my back out around 2009 and have intermittent bouts of glass back syndrome, some last a couple of days and are more of an annoyance than anything else but some are extremely debilitating and exhausting. Last week I felt the familiar twinge and hoped it would resolve itself with some gentle stretching....unfortunately not. The absolute agony of taking one step, the near impossible feat of putting on socks and forget having a whole nights sleep! The exhaustive attempts at getting comfortable during the day. I'm not one for heading to the medicine cupboard for everything, my last bad attack led me to the chemist where I purchased the narrow belt and the pharmacist suggested taking one co-codamol prior to bed time to allow a decent nights kip. I tried one but didn't really like the idea of those. I ordered this belt on Friday and it arrived Saturday evening....I donned the belt, the first Velcro fastening held the belt fairly tight....the secondary Velcro strap really pulls it tight!!! Instantly felt my core being strengthened and the muscle spasms practically ceased and I was left with the annoyance feeling of a dull pain that is definitely tolerable compared to the stabbing pain that will drop you to the floor! Be aware that wearing it for a period of several hours will generate heat which in turn will aggravate your skin....I wore it over a t-shirt and accidentally fell asleep...when I awoke my first thought was "this is going to hurt when I try and stand up" ....didn't happen!! Was a joy to stand up without wincing, but I did notice a slight rash around my waist on the side I slept on. The other side was absolutely fine though. If you suffer with sciatica then this belt will help alleviate some of the issues.
