I appreciate how the jelliebend is tapered to be wider towards the hips and narrower towards the actual waist. It’s smooth, soft, comfy, and moves with me. I might try the jellie shorts next. This is a medical device for me, to help with POTS. I got the XS for it to be extra compressive. My size chart size would have been a S. I’m happy with the choice I made, I’m always aiming for as much compression as possible. It wasn’t too hard to get on. I imagine the average POTS person might go for the true to size option though.
I have tried many things so, why not try Jelliebend? The support is just what I needed! Wow! This product is top quality and made well. It does not get hot and provides support my back loves. I am going to order more. So glad I took a chance on this product.
My husband and I both have back injuries and have both had surgery. We’re retired now and arthritis has gotten worse, osteoarthritis. Putting this bodyjellie on is a relief from the pain and misalignment of our spines. The weather greatly affects our pain and discomfort. We sleep in it when needed. I also have the leggings and they are fantastic as well. We will be getting the shorts also.
I was in a car accident in 2021 and have some bulging disks in my lumbar region as well as my cervical spine. I also have slight scoliosis in my back- talk about a double whammy! I had fusion in my cervical region but still need that support in my middle/lumbar region. Wearing rigid back braces hurt and wasn't good for keeping and improving my core muscles - what was a girl to do?! Along came JellieBend with that hug of support to help keep things in line, but allow muscles to still engage so I kept the core muscles I still have! It feels great and I can sleep in it and wake up feeling more like myself- not an achy mess.
I am IN LOOOOOVE with my Jelliebody! I’ve had chronic pain in different forms for many years, and it became excruciating lower, mid, and upper back pain within the last year, which left me bedbound 95% of the time. I kept getting ads for the Jelliebend and tried the original and the Jellie shorts; the shorts felt like perfect support around my hips, but my nerves are very sensitive around my waistline, exactly where the Jelliebend and Jellieshorts hit at the top, so I had to return them and was super sad about it. I then recently decided to try one more time and go with the Jelliebody this time, since it hits higher above the chest, and it’s MAGICAL! Takes away my back pain instantly, makes me feel “held together”, improves my posture, and I went from leaving my bed and being able to stand or sit for only 10-15min at a time and then having to lie down for hours to rest and recover from that single exertion, to standing, sitting, and doing chores for a whole hour and longer, and sitting to rest only for a short while, then going about my day. It sounds simple written out like this but trust me, the difference it means for my quality of life is HUGE. The Jelliebody by itself brought my pain levels from a 8-9/10 daily to a 2-3, which is huge for me. I’ll get an extra one once it’s back in stock in my size, and I’m hoping the Jellie gods will send us a hybrid of the Jelliebody + Jellieshorts, because that would be perrrrrfect for me (hopefully with a smart design feature that helps us to to the bathroom without having to take the whole thing off lol maybe a zipper around the lower part of the shorts, around the hips, where the Jelliebody stops and the shorts portion starts?) honestly, just give me a Jellie-exoskeleton at this point LOL in all seriousness, this product is super worth it, fantastic quality, and the fact it’s made by a female found who understand chronic pain and this product is made for women dealing with chronic pain and chronic illness means so much of itself. Already recommended to several friends too.
This is very easy to wear. Just the right support for me. It keeps my back spasms away.
My husband is dealing with a fractured tailbone, seroma on his lower back, costo chondritis with his lower ribs, among other injuries and the Jelliebend is a tool in his recovery - especially for the fluid sac on his back.
I bought two Jellie bends one in xl one in xxl. I have been wearing the xxl one for three weeks off and on. I needed to wash the one I have been using so I grabbed the xl before heading out the door. Wowza what a difference. I walked to the HOA meeting and back home it DOES NOT hurt. I have been going to chiropractors for 25 years, this thing popped my hip into position and released a nerve that normally takes weeks of daily chiropractic adjustments and anti inflammatories to fix. I love these both. The xxl one works amazing on my ribs/upper abdomen when a rib slips, the xl fixes my back and hip. So honestly if you’re between sizes wait for a sale and get both sizes.
