ComfyBrace Posture Corrector-Back Brace for Men and Women- Fully Adjustable Straightener for Mid, Upper Spine Support- Neck, Shoulder, Clavicle and Back Pain Relief-Breathable

I suffer from a lot of upper back pain/issues, and when I wear this for a few days a week (1-2 hours at a time) it is noticeably better afterwards. It really helps to pull the shoulders back and improve posture, relieving some of the pain and fatigue in the upper back. Overall I’d definitely recommend!

I bought this a year and a half ago to help with my posture because I work hunched over a computer all day. I use it when my shoulders get really bad as a sort of reminder for my posture and it works great. Its like a gentle stretch and loosens my muscles/reminds them to hold me up right. I wear it 20ish minutes at a time maybe once or twice a week when my upper back is really bad but for the most part I dont need it but once or twice every few months. Nice to have for when I need it. My one con for it is that if I wear it for too long or move my arms too much while using it, it causes friction/discomfort in my armpits. Not a big deal since its only meant to be worn for small periods of time and I only use it for about 20ish minutes at a time.

Brace works great for my needs based on how Ive been using it so far. I use it as a tool to posture check myself. It has lead me to a better posture, relief of pain and is a good physical reminder not to strain myself so it works as an injury prevention in my case. I have chronic back pain but never saw anyone for it until the event that cause me to also purchase this corrector: I threw out my back playing with son and was walking around hunched over, embarrassing my wife. I felt my 30+ years of bad posture had something to attribute to the premature weakening that lead me to the pain to make the purchase but all I knew was I needed to buy a posture corrector that could be there next day. I was up late when I made the order after giving up trying to sleep from being in so much pain. I chose to buy the Comfy Brace over other brands for several reasons. When searching braces on Amazon, there are currently being promoted as a sponsored result. I tend to window shop with every purchase I make, even when in pain. Other brands had designs that I wouldnt want to wear out to the park so I ruled them out but I liked the subtleness of the comfybrace logo. Touching it now that I have it, I have to note that its not just a tag cheaply glued on. The logo on the spine is a nice 3D rubber/silicone slab stitched into the brace material in a symmetry that even my OCD is pleased to witness. I ruled out other braces as options because of the tightening mechanism. I have to deal with those buckles enough with my sons diaper bags and car seats so I knew the velcro that comfybrace used would be easy. Having now used it I can ensure anyone that the velcro is very strong and will hold back any slouching attempts with extreme resistance if thats how tight its set. The velcro feels like a softer kind designed for customer hands and is stitched in nicely with the other materials. The straps also have matching tabs that are the same great quality as the logo on the spine. This extra effort in the label actually makes it feel even more like a quality item. Anyway, after deciding to go with comfybrace and getting it the next day I was immediately glad I bought their brace. I knew about these years ago and instantly regretted not getting one when I first learned about them. I am a believer that I would not have been injured so easily if I had been using this as a prevention/repair already. I wore it while my back healed and I stand up straighter than I have in years. Its caused me to straighten my neck and lift my head up and given me confidence. Im not saying its magic, but just like with diet and exercise this helped me get through the physical pain of hurting my back and also the emotional pain of knowing Im getting old. I need to wear as a posture check still but its made me more aware of my body and has worked great for me in addition to changing habits. I like to think of it like a shock collar, its a tool to get a result but its not going to fix my back alone.

At first I felt like it was great but after several use it just didnt really do anything anymore. Not really comfortable either as I had black lines on my shoulders after wearing it.

The brace is easy to put on and adjust - I can definitely tell the difference when I wear it and my posture is improving. I am using it to correct my rounding shoulders not for pain relief.

Wow. I just received this yesterday (last night to be exact) and put it on right away. I felt relief in my upper back/shoulder blades immediately. I personally didn’t think it changed my appearance until I walked by my husband wearing it under my hoodie, and he told me I looked different. “Good different” he clarified. The instructions say to start wearing it for a short amount of time and work up because it can be uncomfortable. I wore it the night I received it for an hour, and the discomfort I felt was mostly under my armpits, but it wasn’t unbearable and definitely worth that for the immediate change and pain relief. Background on me: I’m 5’3”, 130lbs, medium build. I’ve had large breasts and bad posture since I was 14, which caused neck and upper back pain. I was a year-round swimmer for years, so I have broad shoulders that are still kind of awkward to me even after years of not swimming competitively. I’ve seen a chiropractor every week since high school for my neck and back pain, which helped but never fully alleviated the discomfort for long enough to skip a week. UPDATE! 1/3/21 I had been wearing this brace almost every day since I received it, but now I am able to use it less and for less time. It’s more like a refresher when I feel like I need it. The first couple weeks after I received it, my chiropractor told me my neck wasn’t in dire need of an adjustment (as it has been, every week, for years). He actually asked me the same of the brace because of the difference it made in my posture and neck. My entire family couldn’t believe the difference (even my sisters across the country ON FACETIME)! They all asked for this for Christmas. So now my whole family has one! This product really worked (and is continuing to work) for me and now, my family. It can be uncomfortable (still is rough on my armpits), but after suffering so many years of excruciating neck pain and migraines, it’s worth it. I am amazed that after a couple decades of bad posture, this brace was able to help me so much in less than a month!

It is adjustable so you can make it tighter.

I know this is for correcting posture so it is natural that it would be uncomfortable but it isnt in the muscles that are uncomfortable. It rubs against my armpit area and chafes it. I have slender arms and it shouldnt do that. It hurts really bad to the point that I would have to take it off. I would return it if I was still inside the return window.

Slowly adding time wonderful product

I only wore it twice its a little hard to take off
