Default Back Brace ...

Hello Vicki,
I first purchased and tried a back brace last April 2009, almost a year now, and have used it almost daily ever since. It offered me additional relief and support which I am otherwise unable to find. I posted on this site at that time, and did receive some feedback similar to what you likely will. There are concerns related to muscle atrophy associated with prolonged wearing of these braces in addition to other concerns which I was informed of. Nonetheless, my "life" has become more of a struggle to survive each day so I continue to wear the brace.
Jeff
