I bought it for my nephew who had a back problem. He told me that this belt helped him a lot.

Absolutely. It is great for back, neck, knees etc. sometimes I but it on my lower back while I take a walk and it feels really good.

In my experience yes, this is help me tremendously and if you compared to a visit to the chiropractor they will charge you at least $100 per visit.I focus on doing the minimal amount of decompression with this belt to give me the results I need because I am conservative. But as I said it's worked well for me.

My 21 year old son does have mild back troubles, but this didn't seem to affect it one way or another. However, most medical professionals will tell you to strengthen your stomach muscles to help your back, so in theory, it would work....BUT....as a person who has had three back surgeries, I would think this type of exercise machine a bit too extreme for someone who has serious back troubles. If your back troubles stem from muscle strain, it may help...but if you have a bulging disk, sciatica or spinal stenosis, I would try something less strenuous.

Basically the belt might work for weight reduction,but you have to eat right and exercise. I use mine while doing yard work or running. I like it because it keeps my back warm and creates a sweat this burns calories.

I feel like it worked for me pulling my shoulders back and strengthening my postures muscles. The first day or so my muscles were sore, after that I got used to wearing it the whole day. Give a try, if it doesn't work for you then just return it. Just one note, is if you like sitting where you are leaning against the backrest, wearing this will not work and it would be worse than not wearing it at all because the sandbag in the back will pin all the pressure in one area in your back. It's meant for you to wear sitting straight up, without lying against any backrest.

I can't answer that. I did not have a prescription for it, nor did I submit a receipt. I have several back support belts and this one is my favorite. I have two of them. I live in Florida. These are cool and comfortable year round and fit well. They don't ride up, bunch, or chafe even when I wear them next to my skin. I thought the price quite reasonable and never considered trying to get someone else to pay for it.

It absolutely would! It works for any kind of stretches! It is very durable and sturdy and will take a lot of pressureagainst it and not come apart. It has loops at different distances to accommodate whatever length you might need to dodifferent kinds of stretches in different positions. You can use it behind your back to pull up a leg or in other position you can think up! It is a wonderful tool. It is better than yoga straps because of the loops at different lengths. I recommend it!

Build his medium stiffness and I would not use it for any sort of repelling. It is an okay duty belt but I would only use it for that.

It probably would if I used it to do exercises to strengthen my core but since I use it at work and tend to focus on what I need to accomplish so I haven't seen anything that would say my core is better. Of course, it might be worse if I hadn't been using the chair. My advice would be to use the chair with targeted exercises for your core. It has helped in the area of improving neck and back strain however.

I do not find that it is supportive of my back. It does go lower than my waist line.

I honestly can't answer your question if this cushion will help your back and hip pain. It has helped me, especially in the car. I've bought several of this style of cushion. Bed, Bath, and Beyond has one in the store that I bought because I had to have it that day. It works but is not as thick as this one and therefore doesn't provide as much cushion.

If the pain is muscular, it might help. It's eased some of the stress in my back when I sit for long periods. Depends on the type and reason for pain, and posture when sitting. I also use it as a back support (behind my lower back) when I'm sitting on the couch watching TV or reading. It's great for that in my case.

I assume you are talking about the sacroiliac belt. I found it I wore it over my clothes, the wrinkles didn't bother me. The closer to my skin, the more my body heat and sweat formed uncomfortable wrinkles. Hope that helps.

Possibly, but I would get something else.. But a stiff Pillow would too. I like the Back Sack better, its a loose item but maneuverable, I like it more. The Back Sac. The Back Sac - Adjustable Back Rest & Body Support Cushion

I think it probably would work for you, There is a lot of room to adjust the Velcro for different sizes. I love mine, and it fits so nice for the lower back.
