Fit Geno Back Brace and Adjustable Posture Corrector And Trainer for Women and Men, Back Straightener, Scoliosis and Hunchback Correction, Back Pain, Spine Support, Pink, Medium (Waist 34-41 Inch)

Every body benefits from proper posture. Thus, this product is one I highly recommend. It would be more correct to call all posture correctors, in general, posture reminders or posture monitors. They are not straitjackets or suits of armor that force or immobilize wearers into proper correct posture. Their purpose is to make it uncomfortable when you stray from your maintaining good posture as a reminder to resume proper posture. However many people have no idea what proper posture entails in the first place. 98% of all people practice less than proper posture. There are many good videos online for your consultation that demonstrate proper posture. Proper posture has enumerable positive benefits and outcomes. Primary would be the lessening or eliminating of everyday common back pain. Other benefits include overall attractiveness for everybody - regardless of gender, body shape, weight, age or physical condition, enhancing breast appearance for women, improving one’s stride, elevating one’s self esteem through improvement of one’s appearance and mobility, and much more. Everyone's body benefits from proper posture. Having said that, this particular model is one I highly recommend. Many posture correctors only address shoulder position, and most if not all of these absolutely DO prove their value as one exercises, lifts weights, does household chores, walks or runs on the treadmill, or sits at a computer desk. However this model goes much further, adding tension adjustments to the shoulder straps, middle back, and abdominal / lower back. Wide straps wrap around the abdomen, which I prefer to pull very tight, are there to remind me to pull your stomach in, a critical aspect of maintaining of proper posture. And for stomach breathers, the wide waist straps pulled tight are a continual reminder to fill your lungs with air when you breathe rather than expanding your abdomen. It also features stiffened stays along the spine for further support, all of which makes it a terrific value among other designs. I notice that at specific times I am most aware of my less than ideal posture, and I wear it during these intervals. They include doing kitchen work, as I cook and prep three meals a day, meaning I spend a good amount of time in the kitchen slouching. Another very productive opportunity is wearing it on my lengthy dog walks. Another is when sitting at my desk typing as I am doing right now. In my case I again prefer pulling the adjustments tight, which in my case while sitting at my desk makes the underarm straps uncomfortable over time. In this scenario I slip a folded sock under each strap to help alleviate that particular discomfort. Some commenters state that the Fit Geno Back Brace Posture Corrector is uncomfortable, because yeah, that’s whole point - to make it uncomfortable for you whenever your body tries to resume slouching. I will edit this review if there are any additions.

Bought this for my roomie on Christmas. I tried it on and it works!!! No skin irritation when using it. It’s very breathable I love the fabric it gives a little stretch. I’m usually a XL I got a medium for my roomie and I tried it on and it still fit for me! I love how you can manage lower back and upper back. Would definitely buy this again for myself or for a present again.

I recently tried this back brace posture corrector, and my experience has been somewhat mixed. It does help with posture correction, I noticed it gently pulls my shoulders back and reminds me to sit and stand straighter, which is a plus. It’s also fairly lightweight and can be worn under clothing, making it somewhat versatile for use at home or during daily activities. However, it can feel a bit bulky at times, especially when wearing it for longer periods, and it’s not the most comfortable for all day wear. While it does improve posture, my back still tends to hurt, so it’s not a complete solution. The durability seems decent so far, with materials that hold up with regular use. Overall, it works to an extent, but it may not fully relieve discomfort for everyone.

I ordered a TLSO brace, but shipping was going to take too long, so I ordered this to try in the interim. I suffered a compression fracture of my T5, which healed wrong, causing a deformity and also taking 2" off my anterior height. It's very painful for me to both stand and walk, and often to even sit, so I had to have something. This isn't quite supportive enough for MY injury, but it does help quite a bit and is the most supportive of any other brand of this type that I've tried. Most thoracic fractures are T12 or lower, so my T5 fracture is very uncommon. Thus, I don't think there's anything negative about this brace at all. As I said, it's the best of any brand I've tried, and I think it's because it has two long metal strips going down the back and two shorter ones along the sides, offering much more support. That may make it sound uncomfortable, but it amazingly isn't at all. It also doesn't require someone else to help you put it on after it's been adjusted to your personal fit either, which most rigid TLSO braces do. I think Fit Geno put a lot more thought into the design of this brace than other companies. Most just have thicker material or magnets and neither type was of benefit to me. I had to walk a good distance from street parking on another block to my doctor and PT appointments just a few days ago. Normally, I would've been in terrible pain before even getting there, but this brace made a huge difference. Normally, I wouldn't be able to sit in a regular chair afterward either because the pain would be so bad that I had to lie down, but my pain was greatly reduced and made it possible to sit without the pain becoming any worse. This brace is pretty decent for me, so it may be perfect for people with different injuries. If your injury is farther down than the T5, since that is not common at all, this may work just fine for you. I'd recommend giving it a shot, as it is much less expensive than the rigid TLSO braces, and much more comfortable, too! This isn't labeled as a TLSO brace, so I'm not trying to say that it is. I'm just saying that it's a pretty good substitute for one, and you may not even require that type of brace, so I would recommend it over any other brands that are labeled to do the same as this one. My injury is very uncommon in its location and not correctable since it healed wrong. If those two things don't apply to you, then save yourself the time and trouble of ordering and having to return the wrong brace and just order this brace, period. Good luck. I hope this was helpful.

I only have tried this for two days. First time I needed help to get on and adjust. It feels like it is doing something good for my back. It is brand new so it is not what I would call comfortable but it is definitely helping to sit up straighter. Lightweight and soft. It says 28 days and you will see a difference. I am bent over from using rolater am I believe this will Correct my posture my waist was 39 inches so I got med-large just right.

Excellent product, works as intended.
