FREETOO Back Brace for Lower Back Pain Relief with Pulley System,Lumbar Support Belt for Men & Women with Lumbar Pad, Ergonomic Design and Soft Breathable 3D Knit Material,for Herniated Disc,Sciatica

Go UP a size if your borderline on size or slightly overweight
I love this item it did actual STOP a throbbing back (I hv degeneration disc disease, sciatica & 3 herniated disc. To top it off I just found out I hv OSTEOPOROSIS “the chefs kiss” that is the hallmark of R.A which I unfortunately had before finding this new diagnosis through bone scan a week ago….🙄”Anyhow my back & hip pain had been getting worse I had a back brace from some years ago by a crappy company just dying to tale advantage of my good medical benefits. I’m retired disabled early from the govt.The brace I had yrs ago was over-priced (280!!?) & useless didn’t fit either. Damn Medicare paying for crap!! So anyway I have to take “every” precaution now because I’ve had a few breaks I wanted a good support 4 my back.I researched almost a month online b4 I decided to try this one the reason why goes as follows–metal stabilizers, back triangle support for the curvature in your spine, metal springs in the side good for allowing a slight bend but very sturdy & durable, the heavy duty double elastic bands that pull either side to make it snug around your waist & allow you to maintain a stiff posture.I use this along with a posture corrector (that’s another brace) to help keep my shoulders straight & back.I only have 1 issue with this & that is bc I am borderline due to meds that fluctuate my weight on the edge of Size Small. I am slightly over & even though my back pain STOPPED it left me w welts as I tightened it slight bit of my tummy sticking out as I struggled to pull it over completely. I shouldn’t of done that 😶 it hurt. I sent a pic per request but not fully showing my belly as I was just arriving home & changing clothes so it doesn’t show the under belly hanging out. I adjusted it & tried bit I just needed a size up. I love it though bc it helped my back pain just needed a size up which the c/s graciously assisted me with. The c/s is excellent as the day I recieved it they checked in to see how it was going. I am very impressed & I am going to get on for my other half who also had back issues & a hernia that needs surgery again. Also my closest girlfriend is going 2 get one after I told her my back pain stopped. Usually my back would actually click I would hear it as it would fall & violent pain I mean I could FEEL it move & grind!!With the brace my spine is “stable” & stopped twist & grinding & dropping. This is “MY EXPERIENCE THATS POSITIVE!!” It’s NOT a cure all BUT till I have surgery it allows me to drive & function. I even slept with it on. But “”that’s me”” this is bc it is hard to get up bc of my discs. I’m NOT saying this is a exception for medical treatment no I’m NOT but it is a great assistant in lieu of it to assist w pain. So it is a ((pain assistant & stabilizer)) that I am using it for my lower back & herniated discs. If I had to YES I would buy this manufacturer again. I would. They are sending a size up so I’ll update after I get it.

The best of three back supports I have tried.
I have used this while wrestling my lawn mower up steep slopes, while loading boxes. I have appreciated how easy it is to apply, and have had less pain after some activities that I was beginning to rule out. I recommend this for folks with lumbar, or ileosacral joint pain.

Feels great, really supportive.
I measured 47 inches which was the very top of this size range, but I had tried an XL in a similar model from the same brand, and it was too big. I’m able to stretch the belt so it’s roughly about in the middle of the velcro area. So I’ll be able to go up or down in several inches as my weight changes between the seasons.

Great for Work
I bought this brace for work as my old one was wearing out, and I couldn’t be happier. It provided such great support that my back didn’t even start twinging until two hours into my shift, when I’d usually be in pain before the first hour was up. However, there are some downsides for anyone else looking to purchase this. First, wearing this can get pretty hot, especially if you have to run around a lot like I do. Secondly, if you need to wear the brace under your clothes, like for dress code reasons, then the material can get uncomfortable after a while. Specifically, it can get a bit itchy, and there are areas of the brace that can scratch against your skin, though I have not noticed any visible skin irritation in these areas. Other than that, it’s a great product, and I hope it lasts me for a good while.

Note: Purchased with my own funds, these are my own experiences.I have several back supports which I use every so often and this one is my favorite thus far. I have 6 other back-supports – some light duty, some heavy-duty, some with shoulder straps and some without, some with metal stints and some with plastic – like any tool I select the one that day best for the task so I like a variety of them.While I used to have back issues due to car injuries I’ve managed to regrow bone and such – I now use these when I backpack or might have a sore back from ‘normal’ causes (say poor seating at a restaurant or a long 17 hour direct jet flight). It will set up metal detectors (some I have use plastic stints rather then metal) so I keep it in carry on baggage then put it on in the airport washroom before a flight (a direct flight I use for me is 17 hours non-stop).I can carry up to 75% of my body mass in my 110 liter Kelty backpack, though normally I carry about 50% (mostly urban say grocery shopping and chores some camping or rugged duty in a rain-forest setting).Proper back support works to keep my lower-back from getting sore and prevents more serious injury when carrying a heavy loads (without a load I can walk about 60km without food/water despite being in my 60s). I got the idea to try this a long time ago when I saw some hiker use heavy boned corsets of all things.With a load in the backpack (or even a shopping cart) I’ve never suffered an injury or had any back issues later on. So it works VERY well for the prevention of lower back issues later on.My wife’s recently used a lighter duty one (Orfus) I have for several days when she somehow pulled a back muscle. Using a belt right-away allows the swelling and pain to be gone in a few days rather then a month without one. In that sense they are handy to have hanging around ‘just in case’.This one has a very, strong/stiff support (stint or bone) right behind the lower back which is AMAZING. The metal stint will flex slightly (just enough) and it really works great at keeping your back posture straight. The central metal stint is about 2″ wide by 5″ long and tapers slightly. There are 2 more stints on either side which are much more narrow but do a good job at support on the sides (total 5 metal stints). Out of all my back-support belts this one by far has the best metal stints (bones). The belt is very wide at the back, again, great for the prevention of lower back issues) – many belts are considerably narrower.The belt material from the outside metal stint has about 4″ of mesh material (breathable) and is and nice and cool (overall you WILL build up heat, the belt does insulate, great in winter though).The Velcro used in various places is large and quit good. The smaller adjustment belts are well done an the tab is pretty easy (for me) to peel off and pull yet is flat. Overall the system used on this back-support works better then my other bests.There are no shoulder straps. For me its perfect the way it is – I have some back support with shoulder straps (I cross them) which sometimes are nice to have when working.I found the fit to be the best of all my back-supports when I require excellent lower back support (I got a medium size). Quality was very good, NO stitching defects and lots of strength in the materials used, Velcro tabs and design.An excellent product well worth the money and one which should last many years with proper care.

I had lower back pain for weeks after doing a “wrong” move exercising. Nothing helped. Ordered the brace and it arrived the next day. Based on my measurements – I was between a M and an L so ordered the L (just in case). The brace sits very comfortably and no need to tighten it so it is restrictive. I opted to wear with the lumbar pad. Wearing it today, all day, and it is amazing. I have little to no pain, and was able to finish a full 1-hour workout at the gym! Not sure how long will I need/want to wear it but “so far, so good”.Great product, very comfortable and does what it is meant to do. Highly recommended for all.

I have been dealing with lower back pain for quite some time now, and I have tried numerous back support belts in the past. However, none provided the level of support and relief that the FREETOO Back Support Belt offers.The combination of the curved plate and widened Memory-aluminum strips in this back support brace is truly impressive. The support force provided by the aluminum strips is unmatched, and it has effectively eliminated my back pain. I suffer from sciatica and lumbar disc herniation, and this belt has been a game-changer for me.I also appreciate the adjustable design of this lumbar back brace. The four tension belts on the waist allow me to customize the compression level to my liking, providing maximum pain relief. The mesh knitting technology used in this belt ensures heat dissipation and ventilation, so I can wear it comfortably for extended periods without sweating.The attention to detail in the design of this back support belt is evident. The built-in spring support bars on the sides prevent the belt from rolling up during various activities, and the double seams ensure durability. I have put this belt through its paces, and it has held up exceptionally well.I am satisfied with the FREETOO Back Support Belt. It has exceeded my expectations in terms of support, comfort, and durability. I highly recommend this product to anyone dealing with back pain.
