Stabilize Your Shoulder!

My husband has been having such bad shoulder pain in both his shoulders. He can barely lift them and sometimes is almost in tears. His doctor ordered an MRI and in the meantime we ordered this. It has provided such relief. He sleeps elevated with a neck pillow and the brace on and it helps immensely. He has been given some meds to help, but this provides a lot of stability for his shoulders which really gives him some relief. I am so grateful that we found this. It has been heaven sent until we can find out what’s wrong.

I bought a $44 brace from a company that could deliver in a couple of days. I was desperate for relief and Amazon would take too long to deliver here. That brace is a quality brace, but it didn’t fit well around my bicep and irritated my armpit. This Spartacus brace provides adjustable bicep support and is a little longer in the upper arm. It doesn’t rub my underarm, and it provides good shoulder compression. It’s easy to to put on by myself. I needed my husband’s help with the other one. It’s a lighter weight than the other brace which should help with the heat and humidity, and I do a lot of yard work. Seeing an ortho doc to get diagnosed takes time here and this brace is helping stabilize my shoulder and minimize the pain untii l can be seen and get a PT referral. I’d give it a 5 but I’ve just started using it. Update: I wore this for 6 hours today and my one complaint is the buckle the Velcro strap goes through to secure it around the bicep is uncomfortable on the underside of my upper arm. It can’t be moved since it’s stitched in place. Wearing it for fewer hours at a time will be ok.

Let me explain. This is a great product. I have been suffering from shoulder pain for quite a while. My pain is caused more by ligaments and not muscular but it probably helps both. I like that it helps keep my shoulder stable. Most of my pain is when i try and relax my arm and my shoulder feels like its sliding down. This product keeps it firm in place and helps relieve my muscles from having to stay tense all the time. The pouch for hot and cold pads is also a great plus to this product. I alternate between hot and cold gel pads and it really helps. It seems the be well constructed and the sewing is firm and should last a long time. Once you get the sizing correct it becomes really comfortable to wear and can be worn for a long time without discomfort from it. Which brings me to my slightly lower point of this shoulder brace. The only thing that I had a problem with was the sizing. I am not really a big guy. i have skinny arms and a fatter torso. I bought the universal thinking it would work. Surprisingly it was the right size around my torso but it was way too tight on my arm. I could not strap it around my arm. The universal size does seem to run really small around the arm. I went ahead and bought the XXL. When it came in, the shoulder part fits around my arm much better but the strap around my torso was too big and almost wrapped around my entire body before clasping. I could not easily put it on myself and secure it. The good thing about having both sizes was the torso strap is completely removable. I was able take the torso strap off the smaller universal sized one and installed it on the XXL shoulder pad. At this point it was a perfect fit! Great product if you can get the right fit. Since the arm strap is not removable it really limits the proper sizing to be universal. I don't ever recommend buying what you don't need, but with the low price of this item I would recommend buying both sizes and then it can be truly interchangeable for yourself as well as others that might need to use it. With both sizes you can then mix and match the torso straps as well as the shoulder portion. Other than the sizing this is a great overall product and you will not be disappointed in getting it (or both). Good luck!

Seems to help with pain. However can't tighten enough around my chest ran out of room to tighten it going to have to find a way to get it tighter. Around arm its great. Biceps are at the top of thr xxl measurement chart for sizing. Chest is within range but on lower end of sizing. Odd body type im sure. Other than sizing issue around chest felt and wore great.

Excellent Customer Service, the Universal size fit perfectly. After some trial and error I can put it on without any assistance. Material quality is excellent. Adjustment Straps and Velcro very high quality. 5ft 9 195 pounds. Perfect Fit. Plenty of room for all adjustments. Not too bulky definitely not flimsy. Once adjusted correctly about 5 to 10 minutes very easy to put on and off. Pain stopped immediately. Highly recommend.

This shoulder brace does provide relief from shoulder joint pain. I was pleasantly surprised how well it supported the joint by supporting the weight of the arm at the bicep, and from the collar bone area over the top of shoulder. The design basically relieves pain by isolating any weight on the joint. The brace is well constructed with only two Velcro straps easily adjusted. Very good value.

I'm 6'4" 250 lbs The XL was the obvious choice. Like some of the other reviews, I am unable to get the strap across the chest tight enough to support the shoulder. Why not make the Velcro able to adhere to both sides of the strap? This could be a good product with a simple adjustment. Noted that a different review said they bought this size and then again bought the smaller size and used the smaller size strap on the bigger unit to get it as tight as they needed. It's an idea but why do I got to buy the product twice?

Rarely write reviews, so clearly I’m not happy: 1) The sleeve on the arm is very and rises over the bicep. Even though I have tightened too tight. Not as the picture portrays. 2) The material is not breathable, if you train in it both you and the support will be excessively wet. The material maybe good if it was used in thermal under clothing!! 3) Due to the material and design this support is no good for training in and does not offer good support at all. The support maybe ok if you live in very cold weather and intend not moving a lot while wearing. I’ve worn shoulder supports for years due to a rugby injury and never had issues like this. There is a reason it is cheap!!

Me gusto el producto, se ajusto muy bien a mi hombro, se ve y se siente de buena calidad, buenos materiales.
