I have the Trifecta: EDS, POTS, & MCAS. Blood pooling in the pelvis, passing out, and chronic pain come with the territory. Research has shown that abdominal compression can help to reduce some symptoms significantly. I’ve tried the corset/binder types. For me, they are too constricting and make it difficult to breathe (which I already have problems with). I also don’t like tightness around my belly. Somehow, the Jelliebend gives just the right amount of everything. Like a warm, gentle hug. I feel supported in my back, compressed in the abdomen, not too hot (though I haven’t worn it during our southern summers when we reach 105 degrees F and 150% humidity…. we’ll see), not itchy (I have sensitive skin), can still breathe and move with ease, and have a reduction in my symptoms. The only questioning thought I have: I’m a hippy gal (37 inch waist, 44 inch hips) so I’m kind of between sizes. The Extra Large is too loose under the bust but comfortable on the hips. The Large is about perfect all over with the exception of a little roll up from the bottom if I move around a lot. I’m ok with that. I just adjust when needed. But I’m wandering if a line of “cling dots” (like those on thigh high stockings) would help it stay in place better. LOVE it otherwise!!!!! Alternatively, I’m considering trying the longer version. The issue may just be where it hits me at the bottom in how I wear it. My rolls have rolls if you know what I mean. :-) Thanks for a great product that caters to a population often overlooked!!

Fantastic!! Fits perfect and helps so much with pain!! Recommend it !!

This helps my back from hurting when I stand at work all day. I also had to exchange and it was so easy and fast!

I have had to wear multiple back braces over the last 15 years. I’m at a point now where a soft brace is good, but hadn’t found one without Velcro and that didn’t bunch up when sitting. The JellieBend has been great. It doesn’t shift constantly, I have more range of motion without having to reposition. Sizing guide was perfect. Look forward to more use. Thank you!

My only regret I have is not buying it sooner. It helps my core so much. Far superior than other products out there. It doesnt make me sweat and it doesnt roll down. Will be back to buy more/different products.

Scoliosis, EDS, osteoarthritis and overall bad back. I was hoping for even a little relief and after wearing the jellie body for 2 days I can notice some relief, I could stand and wash my dishes without feeling like I had to sit down. It's not solving all my problems but some relief is appreciated. I also noticed that I am sitting a little more upright instead of leaning left.

Oh my gosh this is so comfortable! Much better than a velcro binder.

I have been able to do so much more when I wear these. I stood and walked around at a concert and didn't burnout from pain and fatigue. Definitely plan to buy another pair.

I had seen advertisements for this product for a while, but i am naturally a skeptical person when it comes to a product telling me that it will help with something that I've dealt with for so long, especially when other things have failed me. Ive had long standing chronic pain due to a number of issues that arent quite figured out yet, but I thought id give it a try.

First, it got here super fast, which was super cool, so I was able to try it out on an outing when I wasn't feeling at my best already. It made a HUGE difference in the amount of back pain I was having. Normally standing and waiting for the bus or train is painful for my whole body, but with this my pain in my back and hips was nearly non existent just because of the extra support.

Second, as a plus size person, I was expecting that the elastic would roll constantly with my movement, as I've had that experience with other garments that are similar. Nope. Sure, there was a little bit of rolling, but it pretty much stayed right where it was supposed to, even while walking around, moving, sitting, standing, and even laying down at one point. Its also comfortable too, which as someone who is autistic and deals with sensory issues with clothing, this was another important factor. Its soft to the touch, and did not cause a sensory nightmare while wearing it.

I do recommend this to anyone who is considering it but is on the fence about it. If anything, its worth trying. It could end up being a really valuable tool for your toolbox to help with your pain like it has for me.

Gotta admit, I first thought my medium-sized jelliebend was too tight. I’m not accustomed to wearing tight-fitting garments around my tummy. I have diagnosed myself with Ehler Danlos. I’m very flexible and my joints pop out of place everywhere. My doctors are inconsistent because my job is unstable, but I know what I’m feeling and going through. I have Grave’s disease, which is autoimmune, so I thought these bone and joint issues may be related to it. However, this Jelliebend has made me feel more whole. I wear it and I feel like I can walk longer, digest better, and my back is not clicking out of place as much. Ellie, do something for my knees. I’ll buy them Jellieknees if you create them. Thanks for this great product.
