I have been in severe pain and trying to live with it for more than ten years. Dr's and chiropractors were very unhelpful. After watching a Bob and Brad video which recommended your belt, I finally got my hands on one two days ago. I tried it out straight away and nearly cried from the relief! Today I spent 2.5 hrs grocery shopping with barely a twinge. I haven't been able to move or sit without pain for so long, i'd forgotten what it felt like to be virtually pain free whilst doing normal, everyday activities. You've given me my life back. I can't thank you enough.
Oh forgot to mention. You've also given me back my sleep! I can now roll over onto my good side without it feeling like my top leg is being pulled from it's socket. Thank you again!
This sounds just like I had written it. I also saw this belt watching a Bob & Brad video, I also ordered one and it was a miracle! Such relief after all of these years. I had been to doctors, chiropractors, and physical therapy, it took this belt to give me the relief I was searching for. Also, I have finally been able to sleep without the pain I had endured for so long. THANK YOU, THANK YOU Dr. Serola!
Amazing...steady back pain for a whole year now....came across a video that recommended this product got it today and instant relief almost pain free. God bless I hope it continues to help me
i am forever a fan. i was experiencing spasms as soon as meds wore off, coughing, sneezing would send me to my back for days. your a godsend. thank you.
I got this last week. It’s been so helpful as my SI joint is no good ( getting physio ) and am standing all day in my job as a traffic controller. Thank you!!
I would recommend this product. Using this and doing strengthening exercises plus some stretching has helped enormously. Would def recomend wearing it for jobs you know have caused the joint to flare up in the past. Gardening and jobs that are low to the ground etc. I am now able to do without the belt on a daily basis.
Glute bridges for days! Your gluteus Maximus is the only muscle that crosses the SI joint so the stronger you get that bad boy the more it’ll relieve some of your instability issues.
I've had SI pain for over 4 years and have been seeing a Chiro for over 3 years, treated with a Thompson Drop table after a full set of Xrays..... Never once did he suggest this belt. Out of desperation, I purchased one from Amazon and I can't believe the difference! I have hardly any pain, I can walk normally again and my leg on the affected side has straightened out, my toes no longer point outwards. Thank you for this belt!! You should receive the Nobel Prize in Medicine or something of that nature, the product is that good.Thank God for you!! PS: Next visit to my chiro, I will be having a chat with him about this belt...
30 years of lumbar pain, a laminectomy(went well) but have been focusing on the SI joint lately and physio just gave me this belt and has made an amazing amount of relief. I can walk without pain now. Thanks Doc for a great design.
I love it. I used it for several months and it eliminated pain. I couldn't hike without pain but the belt eliminated the pain. I went 2 years without needing it now recently am using it with instant results. Initially I was skeptical and didn't use it but eventually tried it. Thanks!
How long u used it til pain went away ? I have a heirnated disc and spinal stenosis i just ordered one should get it any day once i get it i plan to wear it every day hopefully it helps
Thank you for making a great SI joint belt. I got my belt yesterday after my chiropractor recommended it. I feel better after got injured for almost 3 years. The belt is not popular and hard to get here in Korea, so it takes me years to notice that this kind of belt exists. Sorry for my broken english.
Mine has just arrived and it's made a difference straight away as soon as I sat down my pelvis didn't roll back I could feel the difference - I was tempted to go for a cheaper version but so glad I didn't. I've got very mild Hypermobility & the first physio gave me stretching exercises which made the pain much worse. I have a new physio now who recommended this belt & core muscle building exercises NOT stretching! and this is working, but the relief from the belt was instant. I'm looking forward to sleeping in it as the pain wakes me up most nights, I'm hoping this will help.
Even with an Si belt I can't stand for more that a couple minutes before the pain gets to be too much. Had a new MRI on Monday and hoping I finally get the correct treatment after my doctors review it. I keep doing the exercises I find on UA-cam to correct Si Joint Syndrom, but I barely make any progress.
Confermo, la mia esperienza, problemi alla schiena e sacroiliache e anca, mi ha aiutato molto , sopratutto al lavoro e di notte, chiaro non deve essere usato sempre perche poi i muscoli si indeboliscono
I'm 90% sure this is a great product however my therapist sold me one that is too small. The front attachment only overlaps about 1 inch even though I pull as hard as I can. I'm not an overweight person either. 5' 10" 160 lbs. It always comes undone.
I have lower lumbar pain and stiffness and feel two lower lumbar back mice one on each side of my lumbar in line with the hip bone about one hand or 6 inches from hip bone that are sore or tender to the touch. I also get intermittent pain that comes and goes over public bone likely referred to the the synthesis pubis joint and to each side of it which I notice is immediately relieved when I stretch out my lumbar. I also have 2 inguinal hernias on right side of pelvis and 1 femeral hernia. I don't know how these occurred or how to correct them. I don't know what is causing what. I do much lifting heavy things and on my feet a lot.
Yes, the belt can be worn while cycling. We recently posted an image of a triathlete crossing the finish line wearing the Serola Belt. Check it out on our Facebook or Instagram pages. Thanks for reaching out!
You shouldn't use a belt with a buckle because using one gives too much leverage and can lead to overtightening and more dysfunction and pain. Within the ligamentous portion of the SIJ, there are nerves, blood vessels and lymphatic vessels. Excessive compression of the joint can irritate these nerves and vessels and cause pain, but this is less likely to happen with the Serola Belt because there is no buckle to cinch the belt excessively tight. Thanks for your question.
Hi there! The sacroiliac joint is the center of the motion, shock absorption, and weight transfer between the upper and lower body, and when force is transmitted superiorly or inferiorly through the body, a spring like action takes place. Standing puts downward force onto the Sacrum and creates a lot of stress on the Sacroiliac ligaments which can cause a nutation lesion. By acting as an external ligament, the Serola Belt helps provide stability to the base of your spine and puts the Sacroiliac Joint back into a normal rage of motion which removes the stress on the ligaments and may provide pain relief. For more information and visuals, please visit www.serola.net/mind-map-view/ and select the Lateral View N / CN (Gravitational Line)!
By stabilizing the sacroiliac joint, it will help relax the muscles that are pulling your pelvis into anterior tilt. Most of the people that try the Serola Belt on, say that they feel like they are standing straighter, and that is because the pelvis is no longer as anterior as before. The Serola Belt should reduce the anterior pelvic tilt to feel better, but not completely. Muscles and connective tissue eventually adapt to the shorter position, so some exercise and stretching may be needed to bring the pelvis posteriorly; just remember to always wear your Serola Belt when doing so.
Purchased another brand of SI belt 18 months ago did fine, however, needed a new one because it wore out. Therefore, I saw the high ratings on your belt; so I purchased your belt one month ago; and I also have it placed over my tank top. However, it is chaffing my skin like crazy all the way around under this new belt. Could I maybe be allergic to the material, even though its over the tank top; or is it friction with movement and the tank top? Any suggestions?
I left a message with your company on your voicemail and you responded the same day. Your customer service representative, Dayna, was very polite and professional. She was a great help to me and I appreciated that. So thank you for your service and care of your customers. God Bless
We are sorry to hear about your injury. The Serola Sacroiliac Belt is designed to compress and support sacroiliac joints. Please visit www.serola.net/serola-sacroiliac-belt to order yours today.
Hello Serola Biomechanics, Just a quick question if you see this. What is the best way to measure for the correct size of belt? I understand where to measure in terms of positioning but would you recommend measuring over clothes or without to get the best sizing? Thanks in advance!
Hi Chanson. Do you plan on wearing the belt over clothes or under them? Depending on how you plan on wearing the Serola Belt would determine the best way to measure properly. Also, because our belts fit a range of measurements per size, measuring above or underneath clothing shouldn't make too much of a difference unless you are in between sizes. In all, measuring above the clothes should be satisfactory. Thank you for reaching out.
@@serolabiomechanics Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. Based on your reply, because I may well try wearing the belt under and over clothes, I'll take measurements for both and hopefully one of your belt sizes will work either way.
@@mohammednabeelhyf623 Hi, I found that the best way to wear the belt for me was under clothes. This was partly to do with the fact that in working life I often wear a tool belt and also keep my phone in a holster on my belt so these got in the way of wearing the serola belt over clothes. However in my particular case the result of wearing the belt was extraordinary. I’ll be honest, after several months of lower back pain and with frustration about what was causing it I found some information that suggested it might be sacroiliac syndrome and that lead me to the serola belt. I really didn’t hold out much hope that it would work given how much pain I’d been in, but after wearing it for only a few hours a day the pain eased considerably and I was able to reduce the amount I wore it over the space of a couple of weeks and now I wear it only if I get a warning hint of pain from my sacroiliac joints which is now quite rare. I was amazed it worked so well. I really thought I was stuck with lower back pain for life. I’m very grateful that I’m not! Definitely worth a try for this type of back pain.
Does Serola belt help rotated pelvis to at least get it back to near neutral position? I have asymmetry between right and left leg due to knee injury. I always thought i may have knee problems but i realized that the source of the problem is in my pelvis. Due to weird position of pelvis none of my leg muscles work efficiently. If this helps getting back my pelvis near neutral, i plan to do my exercises with belt on so may be muscle behaviours in my legs could change in a positive way (i hope).
Knee problems are almost always due to imbalances in the pelvis. By itself, the belt will help rotate the pelvis a small degree toward normal but, more importantly, it will hold your pelvis stable so the exercises that you do will not make it worse, as long as the exercises are not very strenuous. The belt will normalize neural input to the muscles so the exercises will be more effective. Your exercises should be oriented toward reversing the pelvic asymmetry. A different way to look at exercise is to do some that help posture. We always try to give general advice about biomechanical possibilities. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health care provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition or treatment and before undertaking a new health care regimen, and never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on this website.
@@serolabiomechanics thank you for your swift response. I definetely will try this belt while doing corrective exercises. My main aim is to use this belt while sitting (cause it is difficult for me to maintain correct position while sitting) plus doing exercises while belt on to maximize effectiveness. The only problem is i live in Turkey and as far as I see you do not have any distributor which sends to Turkey. I will tell my sister who lives in US to purchase and send me the product.
The belt is worn on the hips, the middle of the belt width is about 2 inches above the crease formed when you lift your leg or 2 inches below the pointy bone that sticks out from the front of your hips (the ASIS). These should be about the same spot.
Hi. Yes, you can sleep with the belt on. As always, seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health care provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition or treatment and before undertaking a new health care regimen. Thanks!
Literally, a lifesaver. I suffered excruciating pain for YEARS. At times I had contemplated ending my life because there seemed no hope of escaping the constant, stabbing pain. I never guessed it was SI related, and neither did several doctors or physical therapists. PT only aggravated it. Within minutes wearing this belt, I was able to stand, sit and lie fully supine PAIN FREE. Unbelievable relief. I am eternally grateful to have found your product. I feel like your belt has given me my life back, and you have my sincere thanks and wishes for your long and happy life.
There has not been enough research into whether the Serola Belt provides relief to that particular injury. Please consult with your medical professional.
