Suptrust Shoulder Brace for Men and Women: Adjustable Shoulder Wrap for Pain Relief, AC Joint, Torn Rotator Cuff, Injuries, Tendonitis - One Size Regular/Dark Black

Ordered this to help stabilize a painful shoulder and it does the job nicely. Took me a little bit to find the right adjustment for my shoulder (key being to adjust and find the right fit for the velcro strap that goes around the bicep/arm) but once I did it now fits like a glove. Easy recommend if you are looking some support for your shoulder.PROSComfortable Support: The material is soft and thick and is quite comfortable wearing over my t-shirts. I tried it against skin and it is comfortable still but can be a little warm.Velcro: The velcro isn't the long scratchy pull kind...it is a very thin attachment and at least initially clings tightly. I'm still surprised at how well it holds given a light pat down...and how easy it is to pull off.Utility: Ice pack holder, LOVE this and adds that little something extra and has organized my primitive methods of icing my shoulder.Customer Service: Had an issue with my initial order that was resolved within the day. Top notch.CONSNothing specific that stands out or worth noting yetNOTEHave been using this daily for about 3+ weeks now

I purchased a Shoulder Stability Support Brace to stabilize my shoulder. I was aware that SupTrust shoulder braces promote compression-based healing. After reading the reviews on Amazon, StyleCraze, MSN Lifestyle, and other websites, I felt confident in my selection. The SupTrust shoulder brace was the brace for me.Anyone living with shoulder pain understands that everything you do, every movement you make your shoulders are activated. And so is the pain.I was anxious to get the brace and found one totally by chance at a local store. Lesson learned buy only from SupTrust Amazon store.When I bought my brace from a third party vendor, there was a hardware issue. The seller NOT SupTrust refused to address my problem. However, when I reached out to SupTrust, I received stellar assistance from the customer service department.Jessica, the team member who assisted me, responded quickly. She was positive, patient, and helpful.To be clear, SupTrust was not at fault; the issue I experienced resulted from a third-party vendor. I explained my situation to Jessica, clearly outlining that this was not her companies problem. She surprised me by going above and beyond. She provided an excellent solution to my problem.Sure enough, my SupTrust shoulder brace is every bit as good as the reviewers said it would be. It's an extremely comfortable brace to wear, and it offers terrific support. It's made from quality materials, and the binding stitching bordering the brace is exceptional."Feel Better, Live Better!" That's the SupTrust motto. With a quality brace to support the healing process, that's exactly what I plan to do.

From the very first time I tried using this Suptrust brace, I got some immediate pain relief, with some added strength in certain movements. It was comfortable, easy to put on and adjust and found I could wear it either on top of my shirt (if I was at home or not caring what I look like!) or it also fit well under a button down shirt, completely hidden. My only concern is that I've not (yet) been able to get the use out of it that I really need a night. Once I lay down and/or roll over on my bad shoulder, it reduces the tension and the ability to stabilize my shoulder in its socket, which is what I need to do to reduce/eliminate pain. However, it still helps some indirectly in bed as it keeps me sleeping more on my back than, on my side, thus helping to reduce pain at night. There may be a better way to adjust it when in bed, but I'm still working on it. I recommend this brace as it definitely does what it is supposed to do.

I've dislocated both of my shoulders multiple times, and during a variety of activities (falls, swimming, throwing, and most recently in training martial arts). Although I've undergone physical therapy on serveral occasions, I still suffer from periodic 'partial' dislocations, where (thankfully) the shoulder will go back into place on its own. I am grateful that in my case, physical training and strengthening helps speed up recovery to the extent that I am quickly able to return to my active lifestyle. With that said, I decided to seek additional tools (in this case, purchasing a brace).I am very active, and rather than stop training (as I had following some of the first of my shoulder injuries), I found that I need to continue training, but much smarter. I took the advice of a therapist to wear a brace while undergoing certain activities (in my case, training Brazilian jiujitsu). Thus, I only wear the brace during those training sessions, and in my case, have not found it necessary to do so in other situations.How the shoulder brace has helped me:-The brace (I wear one on each shoulder) definitely provides more stability to my shoulders-The use of the product helps minimize the low levels of pain that I feel from time to time-The product is rather easy to wear, adjust, and clean-It seems to be of good quality material and constructionRelevant therepist advice given to me regarding the use of braces for dislocated joints:-The brace should be supplemental to proper strengthening and rehabilitation of the injured joint. In other words, wearing a brace will not do the work for you regarding the need to strengthen all of the stabalizing muscles, ligaments, and tendons that hold the shoulder in place. I still am trying to find the proper strength-training protocol to once-and-for-all minimize--ideally--prevent further injury.-Though the brace has provided me with physical support (and psychological confidence) of my shoulders, I still need to train carefully by way of not becoming complacent in my shoulder stability--or lack thereof. That is to say, one could still be injured despite wearing a brace.I compared many different braces, and found this one to be a great combination of reasonable price, strong customer ratings, appropriate materials (quick-drying for moderate / high levels of intensity in my training), and ease of use.For full disclosure, I purchased these braces on my own at full retail price. I am providing this review at the request of the seller, and am happy to do so. Best of luck!
