Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Body Rite Posture Pleaser-
Customer Review: Great for handcrafters
Summary: 4 Stars
There are a lot of reviews here from computer users, but I wanted to put in a shout-out from a handcrafter. I know we've all had that between the shoulderblades pain after hunching over our work for too long, and I'm here to tell you that the Body Rite will make that go away.
I do a lot of handcrafting, especially knitting, crochet, spinning, and sewing, and a day devoted to my hobbies used to leave me with a terrible pain between my shoulderblades that left me laying on the floor and praying for the asprin to kick in. The Body Rite, which I first had recommended to me years ago by a professional seamstress, has put an end to those days. I can feel it correcting my posture, and while it did leave my back a bit sore at first (I wasn't used to standing up straight!) I noticed the difference right away when I put it on and used it while I was spinning. Before, I couldn't go for more than a half hour or so without having to stop, so I was surprised as the time ticked by, and I kept spinning, and I felt fine. I can -really- tell the difference if I forget to use it.
I did knock off one star because the straps are way too thick. I'd like to be able to wear it around all day, but after a while, the thick straps get to irritating the skin under my arms, even through a shirt.
Customer Review: GREAT SHOULDER SUPPORT
Summary: 5 Stars
This shoulder support is wonderful! I highly recommend it to anyone who has shoulder and/or upper back pain. I have tried 6 other types of supports; they worked while I wore them - sometimes - but did not actually IMPROVE anything in my posture, muscles or joints. This support has truly strengthened the muscles I need to keep my shoulder in place, and, very importantly, it has taken away the pain almost completely. I sometimes had to use prescription pain pills; no more. I tried chiropractic, physical therapy, massage, and this shoulder support is the only thing that has truly helped, and made my own body function better.Body-Rite Posture Pleaser SupportCustomer Review: Great relief!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Body Rite Posture Pleaser lives up to its name. I wear it for short periods every day when working at the computer or the sewing machine. It immediately improves my posture and helps me maintain it during activities that would normally take my focus away from my posture until pain started from slouching. Now, there is no pain and my posture is improving, even when I'm not wearing it (good carryover). It was easy to adjust the straps and I have had no pain from the weights. I would recommend it to anyone who is having back pain related to computer or work/craft activities that require long periods of time in less than optimal positions.Customer Review: Just o.k
Summary: 3 Stars
The posture pleaser is just ok. When i put it on, I immediately noticed a change in my posture, so did others. It definitly pulls your shoulders back, which is what I wanted. But after wearing the brace for couple of hours, the straps under the arms start to rub against your body,which is uncomfortable and it hurts! I purchased another support brace for 1/2 the price and it does a better job. It pulls your shoulders back AND it has cushions for the underarm area.
Like I see, this posture pleaser is just ok.
Customer Review: glad I tried it
Summary: 5 Stars
I'll be recommending this to friends who do a lot of computer work and/or have neck pain. It's definitely helping to decrease neckpain and is a gentle reminder to correct my posture. I like that it's worn over the clothing instead of under, because it's easy to put on and take off. For the price, this is the most effective thing to decrease neckpain that I have found. Using this throughout the day and then removing it and using a water pillow at night has really helped me a lot.
