Can anyone indicate if it assisted with increased/better flexibility?

B Vitamins are primarily for energy and helping with the nervous system. This bottle also includes Vit C which helps with the circulatory system and immunity. Flexibility is primarily due to movement and arthritic issues. Exercise and movements to promote flexibility are about the only things that help that issue. Google 'exercises to promote flexibility' for some ideas. Flexibility can also be determined by our genetic make-up. Some people are hyper-flexible even with advanced age and other are not. Autoimmune disorders can also affect mobility/flexibility.

I can't tell you if this is directly responsible, but I take it daily, I'm 65, and I do pilates every day. I'm flexible but I don't know if it's the B's. I don't think there's a supplement that can do that. Pilates will.

I am taking this med to alleviate my neuropathy so I had to think about if it had affected my flexibility. ! am a 77 year old woman so my flexibility has decreased with age. I can only tell you that I can move with more fluidity now than before, and I have less Arthritis pain in my hands, hips and knees. I hope that I have helped to answer your questions about this product. I take it every day and am very pleased with the results.

Absolutely. We got it to help with our balance, and it's quite good for that. Comes with some exercise suggestions.

It may help some. I like it better than ones I got from the doctor. They all can limit the movement of your thumb, but for me this one eliminates a good bit of pain.

no, when I first stated using it I found it very tight but as I progressed I wanted to increase the strength of resistance but couldn't. So, no

Yes, it offers flexibility. And I find it relatively intuitively easy to use.

I think so, it helped me quite a bit. It makes push-ups a LOT more effective as well. I bought these because I am doing P90X and I was having wrist problems from all of the push-ups.

Hi Clare - Yes, Anthony is right. I designed it to work both ways. Each section is a mini-stretch for your whole body. But together, you'll find that many of the muscles are hit twice. The reason for that is to wake up the muscle and connect to it on the first round and then go a little deeper the second. So as you do more, it increases with intensity. Also, we have found that folks either do shorter sections more often, or extend the time and do it less frequently. Both work. It really just depends on your body and current state of flexibility.

It's worth the cost if you actually use it everyday and commit to stretching. I made progress then became less committed and started back again. I have a friend that uses it daily and he is extremely flexible. He was already more flexible than me, but he pushes himself and actually does use it.

It strengthens your abs and back when raising your knees to waist level and lowering. It has greatly improved my lower back issues. Your whole core benefits.

I have been using it for some time. At first I was worried about my back....took it slow and easy making sure to pull my stomach in and not stretch out as far to begin with. After a little over a week I was able to stretch the full stretch out and pull back slowly without pulling on my back. Now I realize it has actually strengthen my back and don't worry about it. Feels great. Good luck and enjoy.

Yes. If the person has issues with a tight or sore back, it is a real boon!

You should consider substituting another pulling back exercise, such as the (bent over row). If you do that, it shouldn't make a very noticeable difference.

Yes, you can adjust it to make it easier and then change it as you improve. It's still a challenge, but it's doable even for beginners.

Its possible, because it raises your seating position by about an inch. I find that my core and lower back muscles are more engaged, because of the slightly wiggly ride. At the end of a long trip I'm less stiff and sore because of this.
