Cotill Lower Back Support Belt - Lumbar Support Brace for Pain Relief and Injury Prevention - Dual Adjustable Straps and Breathable Mesh Panels (L/XL (Pack of 1))

So supportive, not bulky, best money I’ve spent in ages. Totally recommend!!!

Really good. And supportive

I’m an ambulant wheelchair user, and strained my back very painfully doing a chair transfer at a hospital outpatient clinic. Bought this belt because the resultant back pain made my life very difficult for a week or so. The belt provided enough support and immobilisation to sort out the worst of the pain after 2 days’ wear. I now intend to wear it if ever I feel I am in a position where I might injure myself again, or on long car journeys which often play my back up, in the hope that it might prevent an injury occurring. It’s not the most comfortable thing I’ve ever worn, because the elastic is fairly fierce, but it didn’t slip, and the riptape fastenings are surprisingly secure, but you get pretty strong support from the belt, and a moderate level of constriction, depending on how tight you choose to wear it. I cannot comment on the use of this belt for people who routinely need extra support for heavy lifting as part of their job or recreation, but I would say it’s a help for intermittent/moderate back strain sufferers. Compared with other belts on the market, it is definitely good value for money.

I ordered a brace but used my waist measurement but I had to return it as it was to small, make sure you measure level with the NAVEL to get the right size. I am now 100% happy with the brace and the ease of pain it gives I also think it is a good price

Decent quality and good support

It's great it's very comfy helps too relieves my back pain thanks amazon

Good quality

First off, this does work. It's not a super strong support for heavy lifting, but as an aid for adding a little extra support to the lower back it works well. It consists of 2 bands. The first is the main elastic support band. This is 12.5cm wide at the front and expands out to 21cm wide at the back. The wider back part has 9 vertical reasonably stiff ribs, to help support your spine. This band secures at the front with velcro. With the 'loop' part being 25cm in length, it gives you a lot of room for tightening or loosening as required. There is then a second band which goes around your waist. This is of a much more stretchy elastic material and you can have this as tight as you feel is necessary for support. It works well in use. I've recently been diagnosed with arthritis of the spine and this has helped to give me a little more confidence when out, that my back will not 'slip'. The only negative that I can add is that, after a while the outer, tightening band has started to curl over and when it's tight this can 'cut in' a little. A swift readjustment can alleviate this. Overall, I'm pleased I bought it and when it does eventually fail, I will buy another. I hope you found this review helpful.
