Does this brace work for SI joint pain?

It does not stay close, the Velcro does not stay together, so there for it did not work for me at all. I am a 34inch waist

Being at the lower area of the spine, the SI joint takes a lot of compression and weight from all the vertebral column above it, hence, it seems logical that a support brace that takes /"supports" some of the weight at and above the braced area, should help reduce stress on the SI joint, thereby, helping to relieve pain. I use combinations of ice to the area, ibuprofen, stretch exercises, and the support brace to manage my back pain. After 35 years of degenerative disc disease, I've learned that no "one tactic" is the solution to my chronic and acute back/rib pains.

I bought this for my lower back pain. It works wonderfully for me. I had pain to the point I couldn't walk from one room to another in my house without pain. Now I can walk down my street and back easy.

Yes I use the brace when I play softball and it does not impede my ability to run.The brace provides stability and I found it to be sturdy and not rigid like some other braces that I previously used.

this brace looks good but is useless. extremely difficult to find an effective back brace. all mfg claims are way overblown. good luck

I don't have knee pain myself, but page 18 of the Instruction Manual shows how to place the pads for knee treatment, so yes, the unit is designed to work for knee pain.

Not being a doctor, I can't say for sure. However, I'd think not; that you'd need an articulated brace with hinged metal supports. This brace is equipped with metal springs that permit a full range of motion while providing compression and stabilization.I'd also advise being seen by a qualified physician rather than simply relying on external support for an unstable joint. Whatever the underlying problem, the condition may worsen if not correctly and completely treated.Best wishes.

Hi Billy,I wear it for everything except playing tennis. I haven't tried pushups with it yet, but I have done light exercises with weights. This brace, according to the website, works best for OUTER wrist pain, not inner wrist pain. Check out their website; I know they encourage you to try several exercises to see if the brace will help. Good luck!Chris

I wouldn't go so far as to compare the Incredibrace with a true brace. The compression helps ease pain and seems to make faster work of healing on my creaky knees.

Yes, perfect for small adult hands. It is more of a soothing support than a brace type support. It is good for minor/slight aching in wrist or thumb.

nope. This brace is a game changer. I used it while playing hockey never an issue

I wear the brace while doing pushups and yoga without problems. Although I do have to mention that this brace will help pain on the outside or ulnar side of your wrist it most likely isn't going to help with pain on the inside or radial (thumb) side of the wrist.

I can definitely relate to that type of pain. Yes, this will be of some help. It's also smaller compared to a regular wrist brace and I even forget I'm wearing it at times. Hope this helps! !

I agree with your question. I don't have the support anymore. The support part of the brace on my knee was good, but there were rather hard rubber band type things at the top and bottom, which really cut into my legs above and below my knee. I would not recommend this brace to anyone. It was not helpful; it was uncomfortable; and didn't seem to have the proper sizing for the top and bottom to go along with the knee support itself.

I have a similar condition and I love this brace. It supports but gives good flexibility. Buy one size bigger than what they say though. I will buy again when I need a new one.

I believe the link is http://infositelinks.com/Free/2011/08/Magnetic_Therapy_PMP.pdf If that does not work I would contact the store. I'm sure they will help you. Hope the brace works well for you. I wear mine when I ride my horse and it helps prevent the intense soreness I used to get from allowing that shoulder to become strained from the posture of riding and the bumping around.

No. I was not impressed with the "brace"- it really did not add that much stability- much better products available

No, this brace limits wrist rotation (like turning a doorknob). Carpal tunnel effects wrist up &down; movement. I don't think this brace would be of any benefit in treating or preventing carpal tunnel.

Kim, I don't believe so because I regularly do my exercises at the gym. Also, I am not dependent on the brace, I wear it only to help me heal whenever I hurt my back.
