This feels so good on my poor back that is suffering from scoliosis and spinal stenosis. I'm not able to wear it as much in the summer, as I'm in Texas and the heat and humidity here make this hard to do in summer, unless I am staying in a completely air-conditioned building. This winter though.... it's going to be hard to take it off! Thank you!!!!
I was skeptical about this product, but I can say after using it for about a month that it works. I have Scheuermann's Disease, lumbar scoliosis, and am hypermobile—conditions that make most daily activities painful due to a lack of natural support and muscular imbalance. While it doesn't fully 'cure' the pain, Jelliebend helps me stay active for much longer periods. I recently used it on a trip and was surprised at how much longer I could stay up and about! Fully recommend trying it.
My doctor recommended increased abdominal compression for my dysautonomia (I am also hypermobile) and after receiving some ads for this, I was very curious as other types of abdominal compression seemed uncomfortable for my other GI symptoms I experience as a part of my complex medical issues. I ordered this right before a vacation where I knew I would be doing more standing and walking than usual to have an additional supportive tool and I was so surprised at how much of a difference it made in many of my symptoms: low back pain, coat hanger pain, and brain fog. I was also worried it would overheat me, but I was very comfortable in it as well. I expect this to be a staple compression garment for me!
I have EDS and my ribs and SI joint constantly sublux. The Jelliebody really helps and is super comfortable. I wear it all day and don't over heat. Once I get another pay check I'll definitely be buy another one!!!!
Customer service was wonderful and so refreshing . I had an issue and Ellie was so quick and attentive .I bought the waist band for my daughter and the wrist compression for my son and they said it’s very comfortable and helps them feel supported.
First, I can say that I am not one to give reviews - ever. I just either forget or don’t have the time, but these products have been such an instrumental tool in my symptoms that I had to leave a review this time! I have been using JellieBend products for probably 6 months or so (JellieBend, JellieWraps for wrists, and now JellieBody). I was skeptical when I bought my first JellieBend - I thought it seemed overpriced, but I was also desperate for relief so figured it was worth a try and I could always return it if I hated it.
It has been so helpful, ESPECIALLY with my often prolonged time sitting at a desk. It relieves some of the back pain and provides snug, but not uncomfortable support. (By the way - I have really struggled with finding appropriate compression because I hate the way most feel against my skin due to MCAS). I also had tethered cord surgery less than a year ago and needed some support but disliked back braces - this was PERFECT! I have also found JellieBend helpful with abdominal compression and keeping my blood pressure up a little more - especially during this hot summer where compression socks/leggings are nearly impossible. It’s also been helpful during my clinical rotations when I was struggling with lightheadedness, every time I was trying to do a physical exam on a patient - this helped reduce some of this symptom which could really impact my ability to do my job!
As for the wrist wraps….well, let’s put it this way - I think I have literally 5 sets of wrist braces and dislike nearly all of them (and never use them). This is the first type of wrist supports I have used consistently. I have a lot of hand/wrist pain with typing and writing - which I do a LOT as an NP student! I appreciate that they are stretchy enough to adjust the level of compression to make them tighter/looser for support without sacrificing movement. I just started using my JellieBody and have found it helpful for mid-upper back pain, as well as hip pain (I have instability as well as a labral tear).
However, the JellieBend is still my favorite product - I have 5 of them now so I can wear it every day! I have to say these products are worth the price and I’m hoping Ellie will continue to create different compression wear!
I suffer from chronic pain and had a stent placed for vein compression in my illiac vein in my abdomen. Compression is recommended and I've been wearing a variety of compression wear. This product has made a HUGE difference on my pain levels and overall functionality. Thank you!!
