I was so skeptical about this working, I have POTS/hEDS and there are so many products marketed at me, and so far none of them have worked and they aren't always cheap.
I have never been so glad to be proven wrong. This is the difference between pain and productivity. From the moment I put it on, it compressed in all the right places and I could immediately feel the difference. I use it when I have chores to do around the house now. I can typically get them all done but when I finally sit down to rest, my body is nothing but pain. My back and hips feel so stiff and depending on the level of activity - crouching, bending, standing, walking - depends on the level of movement I have afterwards. If I do a big clean, I can barely walk sometimes afterwards. My first time doing some spring cleaning with this on, no pain while I did all the things, but what's more is no pain after. I was able to keep going and do other activities with no pain and when I took it off when I was done, nothing hurt!
I have sensory/texture quirks, but this does not cause any discomfort and the texture doesn't bother me. I am also in perimenopause, but have not had any issues with sweating profusely in the jelliebody or the jelliebends.
I measured myself to make sure that I picked the right size. It fits just right, and I am by no means a skinny woman - I am 5'4", 200 lbs and ordered an XL. I do not have a large bust and this holds up just fine, no sagging or drooping - of course that is just for my body/bust type and results will likely vary as much as bodies do. All I can say is that I expected this to be a dud, but I am so glad that I ordered the bellybody in addition to the bellybends.
***The above review is specifically for the Jellybody. I ordered the Jelliebend - 2 of them, one in an XL and one in XXL. I did not find these to work as well for me, mostly due to where they sit on my body. I need compression a little lower so that it catches the top of my hips, and the jellybody makes that much easier with less wardrobe awkwardness. The jellybend also seems to compress differently in the XL than the Jellybody does. I ordered a bundle and on recommendation from the website, also ordered a size larger in the Jellybend in case I wanted a lighter compression than my true size. I would say order your true size first and give it a trial run and then come back and order a size bigger if needed. ***
I was apprehensive to purchase but after taking the Leap too, I can honestly say I wish I would have sooner. My back and hips are thanking me. The compression is great and is sensory friendly. Not too hot and not too bulky perfect for wearing all day, especially when I’m on my feet on concrete floors.
I ordered both this version with having a extra long torso, this one fits ( not quite as pictured) but good! Finally found something to help my endometriosis, PCOS and EDS and is long enough to "hug" my entire torso!
It really helps to be pain free during the day! I love it! I have been having back pain for awhile and i was dubious about it. But it works!
There is absolutely no way I could make these work. They don't get anywhere near tight enough. I returned them with everything else I bought, and of course had to pay to do so. Their "Free" returns aren't free.
I love every product! As a person with EDS, these things are life changing. The fabric is comfortable and doesn’t bunch up or rub
Living with Ankylosing Spondylitis, hEDS, and Crohn’s disease means my body deals with chronic pain, joint instability, and inflammation every day. Finding support that actually helps my body function better is incredibly rare, which is why the Jelliebody has been such a game changer for me.
The support it provides from my hips all the way up to my shoulder blades is incredible. That level of stabilization helps my posture, reduces strain on my joints, and gives me a significant amount of pain relief. On days when my body feels unstable or my spine and SI joints are flaring, wearing it genuinely helps me stay more mobile.
Because of my hEDS, my hand strength isn’t great, so getting it on can take a little effort. But once it’s on, the fit is perfect and the support feels amazing. It hugs my body without being restrictive and doesn’t shift around during the day.
Another huge plus for me is that it doesn’t leave marks or lines on my skin, which is really important when you have sensitive connective tissue.
For anyone living with chronic illness, hypermobility, or joint instability, this has been an incredible support tool for pain management and daily mobility. I’m so grateful I found it.
Fast delivery and quality products. This is the 2nd one I've bought. Needed to get a smaller size. Washes up fantastic too!
I have been wearing a jelliebody for a bit now. I haven't gone a day without it. I was really suffering every day. Now I stand with confidence and a lot less pain. I never realized that compression is what I needed. Wow!!! THANK YOU! Now hurry up and get the shorts back in, please!!!!! I need a XL 😀
