I have used this and I can tell you that it absolutely works. You have to get it in the correct position. I hope this helps someone.
Hey Travis, Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. It really helps other viewers make decisions on what will work for them. We appreciate you! 🙌
Will it help with someone with lower back pain that causes pain in legs and feet i take high dos'es and still no relief.does it work for any nerve damage?
Knowing where the nerve is is key to making this work. I've used it to alleviate pain shooting up my buttock and towards my lower left back and this works, even with the puck above my calf/below the knee. I've used it when hiking and it is definitely not a placebo effect.
I've used it on for 7 hours and it hasn't given me any relief at all. Maybe I didn’t get it in the correct position, now after see this video, moved it a little bit to one side so the pressure point don’t be in the middle of the leg.
@@olgaverdecia1075Now that you moved it, did it help you from the pain? I bought one for my father. I want to know the correct way to relieve pain, thanks
This compression absolutely works. I don’t need pain medication when I wear the brace. It gives me so much relief. Win win! I purchased it from Amazon.
mine just arrived put on watching your video. Thank you. It does feel like it's doing something. Been dealing with the pain for 2 months now finally went to a specialist and on oral meds for 5 days hoping I get relief soon. This was a very informative video.
I had sciatica for two years. Daily pain to the point I wanted to cry at some point. My mother bought me the original one of these about ten years ago for Christmas. I wore it every day for about two weeks… my sciatica is gone. It’s been about 8 years since. I have zero sciatica pain.. I will seat by this thing till the day I die. Whether it works for you or not it worked for me.
this is the third time it reoccurred, would this help me.
It definitely works for me as well... It's almost like a miracle, I must say!
I got one about three weeks ago. I put it on and within about twenty minutes the pain from my hip down to my ankle was totally gone. It was the first time in months that I'd been without pain. It worked _so_ well that I left it on for three days. When I took it off, the pain came back almost immediately. The next day when I put it on it barely worked at all. After adjusting the position over and over again I realized that the pressure device was compressing toward the _back_ of the brace putting less pressure on my calf that it did when I originally got it. I'm going to tape three or four quarters together and place it on the pressure device to see if that makes it work as well as it did at first.
Wish me luck.

This was informative. I’m going to get it for my mom in law whose suffered with it for many years. She’s 99 yrs old.
I just received it as a gift. Your instructions show and tell was better than written instructions.
I bought mine at CVS for $17.77 using my CVS discount and it works great.I started using it today I have sciatica for 23 years and what a relief
Walmart 24.00
I currently am having an issue with my sciatica in the hip as well as below the knee to the right of center. And you video helped me understand how to use this device. Thank You
I have one and I did not know how to use. Thank you for nice explanation and show.😍
THANKS! I bought this product because I was up to 2000mg of Tylenol/daily. I know that couldn't last forever, but the pain was killing me. I couldn't even clean my house (couldn't stand for more than 5 minutes. I saw the commercial for this and decided to give it a try
Not feeling pain when performing squats and lunges, while I'm wearing be active. Thank you for showing how to put it on.
I threw my instructions away.
I bought a “Velcro wide belt” and I shoved a beer bottle-cap as the pressure point into the belt, and it seems to be doing the same thing. I'm walking and bending without my cane. Not only that, but I can squat too.
I have one, been dealing with many issues for years and this has helped. I have also found (at least for me) that using it for about an hour before bed and taking it off as I'm getting in bed helps me with falling asleep

Its a keeper!
Sciatica causing terrible issues in knee and calf muscles which were all knotted up and incredibly painful!! I was looking for something just like this and you appeared just in time. Writing this from the gym and very pleased to be able to walk pain free - just put it on about an hour ago. $23 in amazon. Thanks again Doc! 🙂👍🏻
Thank you for the information. I bought 2 and I am hopeful that they will help me.
Bought one 2 weeks ago! WORKS!!!!!!!
Wooohoooo!!! Glad it’s working Steve!!!
I had one from my previous sciatica nerve in my right low back. I was in the bed for five days with heat and couldn't find it. Then it was better but i found it just in time. The pain was coming back strong i put it on and you are showing the right place but after a few minutes if the pain doesn't go away move it a little both directions until you get the full effect. It will still take rest and ice packs but at least you can walk again until the muscles stop pinching the nerve.
My son bought one and it works! He was really shocked at how fast it worked! Also I guess I should mention that he is overweight some which is even harder for those ppl. Anyway you should try it cuz if it worked for him why wouldn't it work for others!
My wife just ordered one of these for myself I got it today going to try it.
They work. I used some of those 2" stick on floor felt pads you use on heavy furniture (the ones to save your wood floors) and stuck them on this brace to improve the contact point. Excellent. Greater compression of the nerve.

The paper says if pain on left use left leg...my pain is more left side but my right nerve was damaged..would you recommend left leg or right
i have one and it works great.
I’m having bad
sciatica pain and i’ve had two back surgeries.
Does it mean i need more surgery?
I have suffered from ciática just above the knee behind the leg and this brace works. It worked for me since I first tried it…. But I was not putting on. Correctly and now that I have it has made a significant difference. I have suffered from ciática for 27 years. Make sure you are putting on right. I went from 2-3 hours of sleep to staying asleep 6-8 hours.
Hey Jose, thank you for letting us know your experience with this brace! We are glad that it was able to help you!
I had it on upside down today and it still works 😅
Thanks, I am trying this right now, we have subscribed
You are very welcome! 😊
Mine works great. It takes away the pain from my sciatica.
I’m a firm believer that this product works for me especially my sciatica and low back pain ❤❤❤
yea when the heart attacks starts remember how you started it
@@thomasbrunn4182Bull! It doesn't mess your heart up 😆 where did you come up with such a bogus reply?
Does this work if your pain is on your lower back? My pain is mainly on my lower back but sometimes goes down to my thigh. It’s excruciating for sure!! I know a couple of stretches that relieve it temporarily but it always comes back in minutes. I constantly have to do the stretches if I’m doing activity standing up in one place, like washing dishes or after walking a bit. Having sciatica has really changed my activity level and I’m sick of it!!
I have varicose veins problem and sciatica can I use this
Can you add a link to your website when it comes to things you like
I received this last night from Amazon. So far I’ve tried numerous variations of positioning with no relief at all. My pain starts at my right hip/upper buttock & goes down the back of my thigh to my front, outer side, and back calf, to the outside of the ankle into the top of my foot. I also have some numbness in my foot and ankle that has developed over time after all the pins & needles sensations daily. I was diagnosed recently with 2 herniated disks which are impinging on the sciatic nerve: the first at the L4-L5, contacting & posteriorly displacing the right L5 nerve root; and also the L5 nerve root is encroached upon by a disc bulge towards the right at the L5-S1. I also have a Schmorl’s node involving the superior end plate of L4, along with multilevel discogenic & facet degenerative changes. I was also diagnosed a few years ago with spinal stenosis. I have been suffering with excruciating pain for months, which started out as a small annoying hip twinge back in the spring. I will NOT take opioids, but am on daily other prescribed meds along with OTC meds, with no relief except when they make me drowsy enough to fall asleep for a few hours. I rarely sleep more than 4 hours at night - sometimes less due to the pain. I had such high hopes for this brace, as a friend of mine tried it with her sciatica and got instant relief. I will keep trying different positions for a few days before I return it. If anyone has any suggestions, please comment. I’m trying to get the ball rolling for a spinal injection, followed by surgery if there injection doesn’t help. I can’t live this way in this much constant agonizing pain. I can’t do anything physically that I could normally do without tearing, shooting , stabbing pain. Life and work is a chore and is not fun.
Omg I just received this in the mail literally 10 minutes ago. Your pain is exactly what I’m going through for the say three weeks now. I have been in the house miserable for Christmas new years. The pain medicine my doctor prescribed made me sick as hell I only took one I can’t do it. So that leaves me taking Gabapentin and bc powder on a daily. I am so disgusted with this pain. I have the brace on now so hopefully I get some relief I am scheduled for a cortisone injection next week. I pray for you me and everyone else with the pain.
@@k.valcin5657 I feel you. Quality of life really dissipates dealing with 24/7 pain. I hope the brace gives you relief. No one should have to go thru this much pain with today’s technology. I finally got an appt with a neurosurgeon for March 3rd. I hate that I have to suffer two more months, but at least there’s light at the end of the tunnel of misery. Blessings to you. )0(
so sorry to hear your plight !..…I have sciatica also and my right knee cap area is in perpetual pain
@@buddyh17 I feel you. It’s absolutely horrible the suffering this kind of pain caused. I like to think of myself as a strong woman, but this pain makes me sob daily. I’m almost 64, looking towards retirement in another year or so, and all I can imagine is the rest of my life in pain. I hope you are able to get some relief. Sending healing energies. Blessings )0(
@@catmomsheri thank you!.. right back at you.. take care !
It worked for me 👍
That's for the information about the sciatica.
I got it how long do it takes to work I will come back on my view
Im wondering why you arent supposed to wear it on both legs at the same time?
I bought two different ones
The Beactive + and Kaijiely
I feel like I get more acupressure with the Kaijiely, this one was only around 4 bucks, if you go to the website it sells for 40 something.
Does this work? Yes and no. If you have sciatica, pressure on the back of your calf does help, and this brace can apply the correct pressure. However, you have to get the pressure pad in the exact spot for relief, and it may take a while to find the accurate spot. However, if you have radiating pain from spinal stenosis, it’s not as effective.
It looks like they’ve upgraded it from the one I have, mine is the style that you had to slip up your leg, then Velcro on.
You’re right, it’s not a permanent solution, but it can offer some relief, especially on a bad day.
A quick way to know if this may work on you, is to wrap up a small ball or a large marble in a bandana, and tie it to your leg, adjusting the ball to the correct spot on your leg, make sure the bandana is tied pretty tight. If this offers you some relief, the BeActive brace may be a good investment for you.
Hey Linda! Thanks for that great tip with a bandana and a marble! Genius!!!
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy I’ve used this method sometimes at work, when it started acting up during the night, sometimes just the tight bandana or rag is enough to alleviate it. If you can’t find a ball, marble, or similar round object, you can tie the bandana so the knot rests on the pressure point, it’s just enough to get you through.
I just received mine today 4/18/2023
I will write and let y'all know if it really do work Atlanta Georgia
Hey Gretcheline, We'd love to hear your thoughts on brace.🙌 Thank you!🧡
What is the long term solution???
It really works i have two
I had to back because in a previous comment, I said that I had used it for 7 hours without any relief. Well, apparently I had it in wrong place because once I moved the contact point to a side, the pain stopped completely and I've been pain-free for 24 hours now. I cannot believe it.
Too bad you didn't have a patient with sciatica to test this on.
This man has sciatica he just wasnt expetiencing an episode of it at this time. Try actually listening to the video before you comment next time.
@@preston2636 My comment wasn't negative. I just thought had he put it on someone experiencing sciatica at the time, we'd know if it actually worked.
It does work!
It works!
It's not 100% efficient. However, I felt moderate relief on my sciatic nerve pain. I rate 7/10 efficiency.
Hey Eduardo, we're so happy to hear that you're feeling moderate relief on your sciatic nerve!!! This is a great option to use instead of relying on pain medications! There is a lot more to do to solve a sciatic nerve problem. You can learn more about that here:

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy It's better than medications that make you drowsy and develop stomach pain. Tks for the link. I'll watch this video.
does the "be active" logo appear upside down when on the right leg? just want to know if im putting it on corredctly.
Yes. On the right leg the logo will be upside down.
Mine doesn't even have a logo
does it matter which leg?
Thank you that you honed in to a key factor in treatment. Always determine and evaluate for the primary source of the pain. PT Charlie Johnson and his advertisement for his services is really against anyone going to see a clinician for their pain especially sciatica.He has has put out a 5 step self-diagnostic protocol which ultimately as you can imagine leads these people to his services anyways. What he tells people is any corrective measure whether be active or passed that causer's pain is not productive. Less moves used is best which would be the least pain producing but more comfortable. He is a dr of P.T. So clinicians know there are multiple lesions and problems are caused hip by and leg pain everything from Sacroilltis, piriformis syndrome, facet syndrome, herniated/bulbing lumbar discs, or myofascitis.
How would this work.
Does one size fit all? Looking on the internet but it doesn't give sizes? Thank you.
Hey Buddy! It says that this device only comes in one size. Hope this helps!
Thank you will let you know if it helps although I'm a skeptic. Enjoy all of your videos.@@epmanualphysicaltherapy

Hope this helps someone. This brace actually works. The key is the placement. Try to have the circular pressure point to the upper part of the calf, Behind the calf
Do you use it on both legs or just one, the one with sciatic

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy THANKS
This wrap arrived yesterday and while it helped with the pain down my leg and buttock; it increased groin pain and low back. Afraid to use it again as the groin pain is excruciating,
Hey Buddy! This is an interesting observation! Sounds like there may be multiple issues going on here. The groin is innervated by a different nerve. It is very possible that this wrap is helping with the sciatica issues, but also bringing more of your attention to the other problems. It may be a good idea to look into our lower back content.

Yes its work, I can walk now.
That's great to hear!! 😁
Can this be caused by pregnancy?
Amozon has acupressure points and reflexology maps these are without needles. Don't need needles or Doctors, but have to use brace a lot. I believe a acupuncture Doctor can heal you or procedure will last longer with them.
I know these things work. I have one for my elbow and it's button is a pocket of air.
I saw a brace like this on TV. My sciatica was hurting so I tied elbow brace on with an ace bandage . I guess I tied it to tight , my burser sac swelled up . Here I am now looking for pressure point relief for that and or exercise to drain🙄🤕
Best Doctors , I think is when east meets west and work together👍.
I've had chronic "acute" pain in both sciatica for almost 20 years, I tried acupuncture while I was working in LA, it helped but it didn't last long, as soon as I twisted or jarred my back the wrong way and the pain would be back just as severe as before, but the few hours of relief were worth the price a couple of times a week.
@@floydholder597 I'm sorry 😞 for those sciatic nerves causing you such pain. Sciatic pain well over 30 + years more off than on. if i can keep a button , maybe its the magnet of the button in the position it actuality stops hurting this i just found 3 weeks ago😌! Bursitis in my knee is being difficult and will not ease up! I got a brace for knee and slipped a magnet ( magnetic back cushion fell apart so I collected the magnetics) on the pressure point in back and just below my knee, under knee brace, it actually takes my sciatic pain away. Although my knee hurts if I do anything for any length of time.
If I were you I'd place a dome shaped disk in the spot I told you in back of both knees. I'm having trouble keeping pressure point activated or maybe it's more disingagauged, I'm thinking light to medium compression shelves would be better than a brace that cover bellow knee where I put magnet ( the first time i tried i used my elbow brace (( has an air pillow )) magnet was just convenient . I'm thinking a button would work, just need to be gentle pressure , that's what I did wrong and hurt my bruser sack, figured sciatica is a big pain must need firm pressure, I was WRONG!
Thanks for your reply I forgot I was looking for a pressure point to releave knee pain. That's how much knee pain is😱
And see i mentality try not to claim the pain as mine.
keep looking, don't give up , mostly pray, I don't know the mind of God and I can't figure out what good this pain is for. But God , maybe this , caring for you.
@@christinebean7932
So far, I've been blessed enough not to have much arthritis, my dad had bursitis in one shoulder and one knee if I remember correctly, I mostly just remember I don't want it from what bits I do remember of his pain levels with it.
My massage therapist just gave me a pair of these "cuffs" a few days ago and I've only had the opportunity to use them a couple of times so far.
At this point they seem to be helping, I can actually stay up on my feet for more than 5 minutes before having to sit down and recline to take the pressure off the nerves.
If there is a negative side affect, it appears that whatever pain is alleviated comes back next day as even more stiffness and pain in the muscles affected, but like I said, I've only used them twice, and in full disclosure, I did wear them longer than what he recommended in this video.
@@floydholder597 glad you got those cuffs . I always have to try to rig things on my own before I actually buy something . Like do I really need to buy something else, how did they come up with this do I already have items to do this. I was a single mom so money was tight.
I found another pressure point that's helping my knee. The knee brace makes my knee worse. What I'm doing now is taping domed buttons over pressure points and wearing compression knee socks . It is working 💪, for the most part. Took socks off to sleep and knee woke me up , I had left buttons in place so I just manipulated button and it stopped hurting and was able to go back to sleep. I actually manipulated both as their perfect spots for my hand grip. Actually once I learn where these points are I won't need the buttons unless my finger nails don't allow me to find the points.
These cuffs and what I'm doing is reflexology.
I know what you mean about after use it cause the surrounding muscle to be sore. I wonder if that is from the pressure point being stimulated and waking up muscles seldom used? Hope that's a good thing. 😉👍
Merry Christmas, have a blessed season 🙏 ❤ ✨

We've got some of the same habits, I don't normally buy something just from TV, or internet ads, unless I know someone that I trust implicitly on these issues, or like you have discovered through trial and error, methods or "tools" that work for MY body.
Those things that work for me, may or may not work for everyone else or to varying degrees and vice versa when it comes to what works for others, but maybe not me.
I thought it was just a scam. I was surprised to see how well it worked
It didn’t work for me. I’ve tried to move it in several different positions and it still work!
Hi Ed, Thank you for sharing your experience with this brace. It definitely isn't for everyone but we've had many people benefit from them as well. We hope that your sciatica pain has subsided and you are feeling better. We very much appreciate your feedback. Please take care! 🙌
We got it me and my girlfriend let you know in 2 hours
I bought the product the velcro is in the wrong place I cannot get it tight in 10 minutes it is at my ankle . Customer service is terrible with no solution, one size does not fit all 😢
That is so true
My sciatica or whatever you call it tingles into my foot. I doubt this would help. Plus cutting off blod doesn’t seem good. No surgeons will help me. I don’t think they know exactly what nerve is pinched and don’t want to take a guess 😂😢. 36 years old living in hell. Only ice and stretching works sometimes.
Thanks for the review
Hi Keloci, We are so sorry to see that you've been struggling with sciatica. 🥺We can only imagine the frustrations you've been faced with due to it. The brace is just an option and we have seen it help people. It wouldn't really cut off blood flow unless it's put on exceptionally tight. It may or may not work for you as everyone's body composition is different. In case you are interested we have a playlist for sciatica you might find helpful.

I still can't put this on right
You and me
Is there a reason they put barely any loop / hook for the Velcro to attach to. This is too short to stay on the leg securely . lol wtf
blood thru veins means pain this thing belt whatever you call it presses up against the veins stopping blood flow which can lead a back surge return of blood back to the heart giving you a heart attack it has not happen yet but it will and will be found too .
So the real question is ? Does it freakin work ??
how can you review a product and you have no sciatica pain???? i'm looking for someone who is actually experience sciatica pain and has purchased this and leave their honest review!
This is wrap sure does stop the pain.
Wish they made socks for this

Some people do benefit from it. It's only temporary relief though...but that's worth it sometimes. Especially if it keeps you from relying on pain medication.

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy I use a tens unit to get some form of relief and I do not take pain medications. I can see how this would work if you had mild discomfort but for real pain, I wouldn't recommend it and yes I have tried it myself.
I have sciatic pain and this works great.
@@moondog3056 I am glad you got some relief
