Schiara Posture Corrector for Men and Women, Comfortable Upper and Back Brace, Adjustable Back Straightener Support for Back, Shoulder & Neck

UPDATE 4/13/23 Changed rating to 3 stars as the seller has reached out to understand my concerns and provided options to attempt to resolve the issue. The customer service was prompt, to the point and effective. While I didnt take any of the offerings, I greatly appreciated the customer service. ________________________________________________ Simple and effective design. Quality has been good however wearing it, not so much. Not sure who thought 2” straps running under your arms is comfortable. Very uncomfortable for me personally. Can’t speak for others but am bummed as I was really looking forward to using although probably getting thrown out.

Works well. I simply havent used it much because its uncomfortable to use since Ive had my collar bone misplaced/injured which is the reason I got it. Might work better as a supplement to physical therapy and chiropractic care, depending on what youre using it for.

Great product. I gave it a go...and, it works! Does a great job of correcting posture, relieving pain from both upper and lower back regions, plus, you forget you have it on after getting used to it.

As a child, I was diagnosed with Scoliosis (a sideways curvature of the spine) and as a result, my posture was never perfect. As an adult, I spend 60+ hours at my desk, and my posture was further deteriorating. I decided to try the Schiara Posture Corrector. At first, it was uncomfortable because my muscles and tendons had settled in a slumped position and the corrector works to retrain and realign the muscles to their proper position. Over time, it became more comfortable, and my posture has improved immensely. It does work, but it does require commitment on behalf of the user.

Ive been using this for several weeks now, and I am satisfied with my purchase. This is the first posture corrector I have tried, and it was easy to use right out of the bag. When I put it on, my back pain is instantly reduced as it pulls my shoulders backwards. Fixing your posture after spending years hunched over the computer isnt going to happen overnight, so I think its important to go in with reasonable expectations. I havent noticed a dramatic improvement in my posture when Im not wearing the corrector (probably because I still have to build the correct muscles to keep my shoulders from rolling forward), but Ive only been using it for the recommended 20 or so minutes per day. Its possible that wearing it more frequently or for longer periods might get you more dramatic results. I do get some chafing in the underarms if I wear it with a short-sleeved shirt, so I recommend wearing it over longer sleeves to make it more comfortable. I suspect you would get chafing no matter what brand of posture corrector you get because many have a similar design. The straps are padded, and that definitely helps. I wear a womens size ~4, and this fit me perfectly when everything was tightened to the smallest possible setting, but you if you have a small frame or narrow shoulders, you may want to choose a different style with more sizing options. Overall, this is a solid product, and I would recommend it.

Overall, I really like this posture corrector and although I do not use it as a crutch by any means, I do use it to get my muscles used to being pulled back and it does also relieve the tightness in my pectoral muscles. There are definitely more pros than there are cons, but there still are some downsides to this brace. Pros: *Stretchy & soft *Easy to put on *Releases tension *Builds muscle memory *Does as advertised *Washer & dryer friendly *Workout friendly Cons: *Must be worn over sleeves or else armpit chaffing occurs. *I have a fairly small frame (110 lbs, 5”3) and I do have to pull the straps all the way to the tops of my shoulders, which causes them to occasion bunch up). *Causes a sore back but that’s not necessarily it’s fault, but more so my body and muscles adjusting to it. *Since I have to wear it over clothing, it makes my shirt bunch up in weird places I recommend this product to anyone who is trying to improve your posture, but most importantly you need to rely on yourself to put in most of the work! Strengthen the upper back (traps, shoulders, lats, etc.), core and glutes.

Helps maintain decent posture while sitting at my desk. Not the most comfortable thing Ive ever worn, but works well. After a week of using it for an hour a day or so, my posture is showing signs of improvement.

It is a strap that trains your upper back and shoulders to the correct posture. If you lean forward, the straps will Remind you hey, time to put your shoulders back up. They dig into your armpits though, so make sure you wear clothing. Its not some sort of magical device to reduce pain. The straps reek of chemical plastic though, even after one week. Some people will find the plastic/rubber smell nauseating. Works well, esp for an 18 dollar strap.
