Magnetic Posture Support, Size Regular

I purchased this for my kids because of some issues with their forward neck and posture. They didn't care for it because I made them wear it but admits it did help them in that it reminded them to sit up straighter. My son was trying to use his computer when wearing it and complained about the rubbing and friction under his arms, other than that they had no complaints.

This item does work and relieves my constant back and neck pain. The only problem is that the straps you pull to tighten the part that goes over your shoulders keep folding over themselves length wise and they often come loose, so I have to keep pulling them down to retighten them. Overall, I think the product is a great idea and it's worth a try for anyone with back or neck pain. I do wish the manufacturer would look into the way the fasteners that make the adjustments are attached and maybe use thicker straps so they don't keep bunching up and coming loose. I have tried all kinds of things to help with my back pain from inversion tables, special pillows, various supplements, therapy, etc. This is one of the few items that I notice a definite benefit from. It's also something that's easy to use and you don't have to commit any time to it other than putting it on, so that makes it good for people who don't want to buy something that's going to get in the way of their other activities. You can put this on and still go about whatever you want to do like it's not even there.

Everything is nice

It's OK…I have to rig up something to pull it away from my arm pits in the front. It is irritating the crap out of me! There are metal buckets, cinches that hit there and in order for this to work right you need to pull this on tight. There is no way I could wear this for more that 10 minutes without going nuts! Maybe some velcro type of contraption in front will help to pull it away from going under the arms. The other issue I have is it STINKS! It smells like CHINA products. I mean BAD. I aired it outside for 2 days and it helped a little, but I guess I am going to have to hand wash it. Not to sure it is worth all this.

I have had back pain for years. I'm on my feet 10+ hours a day at the office so this seemed like a good idea. My job requires a bit of leaning forward so it's difficult to maintain good posture.The product is easily concealed under my shirt so no one can tell that I'm wearing it. However, is very difficult to wear for any extended period of time because the straps cut into the skin under my arms. When I have it on, it is supportive but I need to figure out a way to pad the straps. Once I get that handled, I think it will work out okay.

The design of this product is good as it pertains to providing the necessary support, but the problem lies in generation of sweat at the point of contact with the body, cause there is no mechanism to eliminate build up of sweat. Unfortunately, I do not see how this can be eliminated as the product has to be elastic and therein lies the problem from the material that provides the elasticity, cause it does not allow the moisture generated by the body heat to escape. This is typical of any back support product. If you are the type that is not bothered by the sweat generated, this is one of the better ones.

I am a Dental Assistant and the postions my job requires were making my back spasm. I know it is mostly from slouching. My support brace came in a timely fashion and I wore it to work the next day. What an amazing difference!! I am short and was worried that the buckles to tighten the shoulder straps would irritate but they didn't. It felt a little bulky at first but I quickly got used to it. I love this brace....it really helps!

My husband said this helps his back and he stands straighter. The biggest drawback is the straps that go under the arms.. they bunch up and become uncomfortable. I helped solve the problem by getting two seat belt shoulder covers. He put them around the straps and no more discomfort. Drawback is it is bulky under his tee shirt but small price to pay for relief.
