The Science Behind Jelliebend
Jelliebend's WarmFlex Technology utilizes a specialty fabric that consists of two layers of compression material separated by an interconnected pile of threads. This allows Jelliebend to trap body heat, wick away sweat, and provide a supportive assist all at once.
Support the Lower Back: The light squeeze from Jelliebend gives the lower back a gentle assist while helping to encourage ab engagement. This helps to stabilize the lower back and relieve pressure on the spine.
Improve Mobility: The warmth from Jelliebend facilitates stretching of the soft tissues around the spine. This helps to increase range of motion while decreasing stiffness and injury.
Accelerate Recovery: Jelliebend provides your torso with gentle compression. Studies show that the application of balanced compression allows for 30% more oxygen to be delivered to muscles. More oxygen to the muscles means better performance, less fatigue and faster recovery.
How Does Jelliebend Work?
The Lumbar Spine
Your lumbar spine, located in your lower back, plays a crucial role in supporting the weight of your upper body. It's also responsible for everyday movements, such as bending, twisting and coordinating the muscles in your hips, pelvis legs and feet. Due to heavy use, the bones, muscles, ligaments, disks and nerves found in your lumbar spine are quite susceptible to both injury and wear and tear over time leading to pain in the lower back. Give your lumbar spine the love is deserves with Jelliebend.
The Story of Jellie and Ellie
I created Jelliebend because I am a professional contortionist with scoliosis. The rigor of my training coupled with the curvature in my spine resulted in lower back pain, stiffness, and injury. In an effort to alleviate these issues I began researching the therapeutic and supportive benefits of warmth and compression. I decided to create a wearable band that harnessed these properties. I hopped on my sewing machine and got to work. After many iterations I perfected the design and launched the Jelliebend that is on the market today.
