At first I was a little dubious - It’s a stretchy band. I have scoliosis and compressed lumbar discs and tried nearly every uncomfortable velcro back brace that never fit right over the hips. Well, Jellybend slips on and feels supportive without the pinching and hardness of the braces. It’s actually comfortable enough to sleep in, not too hot, you don’t need to undo it to pee (important at 3am), and you can’t even see it under clothing.
I like to wear my Jelly low over my hips and butt, because that’s where I need the lumbar support. Size is true, I wear a US 18 and got XL. If you plan to wear it higher up at the waist you may want the slightly smaller size.
It’s a win!
Absolutely love this! I bought the blossom when it came back in stock! As a CNA at a nursing home this works wonders for my back during long busy shifts! Cardiologist recommended for EDS and I have recommended it to a few coworkers with pots as well!!
I purchased both the pants and the waist band and I was having the need for extra support so I wore both lol. Maternal is thick but soft. It’s like a wetsuit but stretchy. A little bit of an Odor right out of the bag but I’m sure after washing it will get better. I’m 5’3 180lbs. Purchased pants in a large and waist band in XL and feel like they fit perfectly.
I have neck and t spine issues and am hoping they create a tankini top version: I’d love it to have a wide T back for upper spinal support without pulling on my traps and a scoop front so as to not be close to my throat and the base fall right below my ribs like a crop top. 😉🙏
At first when I saw ads for jelliebend, honestly, I was skeptical. It looked similar to "waist trainers" that I have worn many years ago, and those were very painful or caused digestive issues. After being diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis, scoliosis, osteitis condensans ilii, herniated discs, EDS, and many other disorders this year and starting physical therapy- I looked into jelliebend and figured I would give it a try. I am SO GLAD that I did. Immediately, as soon as I put on my jelliebend, I could feel the comforting compression. I did not take it off for the entire day. Finally, some relief from my back pain. I've since ordered the jelliebody and another jelliebend in a smaller size based off of my measurements and when I first received those I thought "no way will this fit comfortably." I tried on the jelliebody and WOWWWW. I bent over and picked up a laundry basket and did not have pain. Its unbelievable. Thank you SO MUCH for creating this product.
Friends, Jelliebend is something I never realized I needed in my life.
Honestly thought this would be yet another thing I saw on social media that ends up being junk. I could not have been more wrong!
I have EDS and MCAS, so not only do I have issues with pain but also certain fabrics.
Jelliebend is SO comforting, it’s shocking how much relief I feel when wearing them. Just purchased another because at this point I’m wearing it almost constantly.
The cheetah print is precious and I’m excited to try the peach-toned one.
For reference, I am 5’6” 146 lbs and currently wear a large. Received both L and XL with my first order, I went with both because my weight fluctuates often.
Added bonuses: this is a small, woman-owned business and all Jelliebend products are Made in the USA.
Omg these shorts!! I had the belly band for the last year and it was helpful but as my hEDS issues spread further into my hips, the band wasn’t covering everything i needed it to. Plus issues with it rolling when I was sitting, especially driving, which is when i really need it. These shorts fixed all of that! Is it possible I have more energy?? lol My massage therapist teases me about how much my body loves compression, but its true! And these shorts have made it possible for me to get thru some days and events I KNOW I wouldn’t have been able before. Thank you for all your hard work!!
I was doubtful this flexible band would help with my back pain. I am pleased to say it really helps with my scoliosis. I couldn’t be more thankful.
I’m 5”5 220. Bust 46Waist 43.5Hip 47. I feel most comfortable with XL because it can tackle herniating disc and scoliosis if I place it over my hips. All the way up as a top.
I can’t do that with the large because there is a notable length difference but I still like it as a blouse for hot days and it feels mildly binding on the chest (good) for shorter periods of time. Both amazing for rib flares.
The quality is over the top!! Love it.
I have tried almost every abdominal compression product for my back and POTS…this is the BIG winner. Comfortable, stays in place, perfect. Just ordered 2 more.
