Does this correct slouching?

Yes, but I ultimately returned it because it dug into my armpits quite a bit and hurt.

Yes, it definitely pulls your shoulders back. It's not the most comfortable thing ever, but it's not bad. I would recommend using it as a training aid to learn to keep your shoulders back, rather than a corrective device that you wear all the time.

It will definitely help. I'd also try strengthening your shoulder blade muscles - there's some good ones in Bulletproof Your Shoulder. Good luck!

Yes Sir. I wear it at home to get use to my posture. This is a great product. Especially for the price. It does work. If you are conscious of how you stand like I am, then this product IS for you! Look around at everyone and you will notice how poorly people carry themselves.

I think it does help; however, my son says it's uncomfortable so he doesn't wear it like he should. It's probably uncomfortable because he slouches?

No! It leaves indentations. It is a bit painful the first 2-3 mins then it becomes very comfortable. Its good for the mind. You have to breathe and get through thoes first couple on mins. Worth evey penny. Last night i couldnt sleep due to back pain got on this for 15 and was fast of sleep after.

Don't think it would do the exact thing, because arch is not part of inversion table experience. It seems to help by encouraging an appropriate lumbar arch, but for very tight backs it is important to start low and for a minute or two at a time to avoid too much change too fast.

I would be inclined to think so. It made a huge difference in avoiding back pain from slouching over.

Actually it does, but I've gotten over it. It almost forces you to do them properly. It's less of an issue if you are facing the pad, but that angle does interfere if you swing your body even a little, and I'm thin so consider that also.

Hello! It sure does. In fact, when reclined all the way your entire body is set in 'zero gravity' mode. So relaxing! My purchase is so worth it. Thanks. Enjoy Christopher!

each body is individually adjusted to the product. should there be a "hump" in the middle may be remedied by ocassional repositionally of the cover, from top to bottom, from topside to underside, etc..soft or firm, what is the comfort level? hope his helps. w. wong

I'm not clear about this question. I just put my finger in and slide it around to get rid of the bits of chafe that are clinging to the side. Is this one of those overthinking the problem things?

I have a large neck, so it is too snug for me, but it is certainly adjustable for small necks. I used it as a pillow with my head in the indentation. It supported my neck and head that way. Very comfortable. It works best if you recline the seat a little, otherwise your head does fall forward.

It really did not work as I imagined it would, it was uncomfortable but not in the way that would have improved my posture - which is why I purchased it. A product either works or it doesn't, if you have to try to make it work, then it's not really doing the job it claims.

It doesnt recline all the way down , but I think its good enough. My one year old sleeps confy there, she doesnt look uncomfortable while she sleeps. This is a good product you wont be disappointed. I know I wasnt.

Absolutely! I have mine adjusted as follows: tray with the curl side up to keep the laptop in place, 1st joint to +75 deg., 2nd joint to -75 or -90 deg. (Depends on how much leg room you need) and the 3rd joint to 0 deg. This places the tray's legs resting on the couch on each side of your legs with the tray over your legs and angled for easy access to the keyboard. The 2nd joint angle determines the height off the couch for your legs. Hope this makes sense!

You need to adjust the position of where the weight hangs. It should be hanging down from your back to around your lower back area. If set up properly, you will unconsciously keep you back straight to have the weight hang rather than press up against your back if you were to slouch. At least that's the way how its worked for me.P.S. You shouldn't sit against a back rest if you are wearing the Body Rite, because the weight will press against the back rest and cause more pain than good. Only use when sitting on a backless stool, standing or walking.

I bought this for my fiance. It helps her to keep a better posture more so while sitting working in front of the computer. She hasn't tried sleeping with it as it is a bit uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time.

In my experience, it has a little, but I would only wear it for 30 minutes to an hour each day. The tighter it is adjusted, the more it seems to dig into your armpits. I tried to move the shoulder straps a little farther out, almost to the sides of my shoulders / deltoids, to help pull my shoulders back. It seemed to work, but it's always going to feel a little uncomfortable restoring proper posture, but it was worth it.

The key word is "help". Yes, it helps, but only with frequent repositioning of the bed's occupant. My mother, who has back problems and fragile skin, finds it very comfortable. I, however, see a deep sag in the gel foam topper even when the bed goes unoccupied for several hours at a stretch. I have turned the pad over, and end for end, but the sag remains. Still, my mother enjoys it greatly and we have seen no bed sores.

Hi Michael Honestly, I didn't find this worked for me. It was not the first posture guide I have ever used, and hoped it would help, as it is different from others I had tried. I still found myself hunched over. It didn't take very long for me to get used to the feeling of the tugging and was not a problem for me. I got used to ite
