BeActive Plus Acupressure System - Sciatica Pain Relief Brace For Sciatic Nerve Pain, Lower Back, & Hip - Be Active Plus Knee Brace With Pressure Pad Targeted Compression For Sciatica Relief - Unisex

I think this brace is a great idea; however, it doesnt work all that well for my behind the knee problem, which is coming from my back issues.

It was a little difficult to find the right spot once I was able to tighten the device to my liking. The good thing is I get relief from the pain running down my leg to my ankle.

Husband got this yesterday and he says it seems to be working.It has relieve some of his back pain.

Says it works to dull pain, but doesnt get rid of pain.

So I had great hope for this support and when it arrived it fit too big for my leg (one size fits all?? NOT!), I was highly disappointed and contacted the seller, see if they had any suggestions, but got no reply, I was about to return it and then upon a closer look I realized that the fix was not that difficult, I took it to a local seamstress and she added two small velcro panels for the large velcro panel that comes with the support to attach well allowing it to close with good support and stop the sliding, see picture above. I wish the manufacturer did this, probably a few cents more and it would be able to fit a more significant percentage of the population, or just offer a second version in a Smaller size. In my experience, it does not make the pain disappear but it dulls it. Good enough, every little bit of relief helps!. Good product.

Had nothing to lose if it didnt work...but it actually did! Had knee replacement and have screws and rods in back...never had sciatic issues but whats one more ache! This thing really alleviates the pain. Wear it for a couple of days and then Im good for a couple more without...have turned a bunch of friends and customers onto it. Again, if it works, yeah!! If not you can return...worth the shot, trust me!

Purchased this for my cousin to help with sciatica pain. She loves it and says that it works great!

I expect the brace is good but I didnt need it.

I like that it was adjustable to place on my leg. It fits just fine but I found the round support area doesnt apply as much pressure as I would prefer but I think that is because of the type of pain/injury I have. I have Lumbar Spondylosis so from time to time I have pain from my lower back to my right hip all they way down to my lower right ankle. Sometimes I feel good wearing the brace but the more I move around, it doesnt seem to help me at all but again I think it is because of my type of injury. I would suggest you try it for yourself to get the feel more personally and see if it helps you feel better.

I couldnt believe how quickly my condition improved after all this time. I have only one question... After a while it stretches a little...enough to fall to my ankle. I need an idea to prevent this. Otherwise, this is a great invention.
