How to Choose the Correct Back Support

Let ActiveForever find the right back brace for you!

Back supports are a great way to protect your back from strain and to train your back for proper posture. There are different types of supports that focus on specific parts of your back. The most important point to consider when choosing a back support is where you want to focus the attention on. Whether it be your lower, middle, upper back, shoulders, or a combo of these, ActiveForever has one that will fit your needs.

ShouldersBack Posture Support:

Focuses on the upper back and shoulder region. Originally designed for equestrians, this product is ideal for poor posture, which may cause lower back pain and muscle strain. It's specially designed to train the shoulder muscles to stay back. This light weight, discreet support will train the shoulders and mind in as little as an hour a day. Its comfortable material allows you to wear this while working out, sitting, or on the go. This product can be worn under or over clothing. By teaching your back to stand taller and straighter it will relieve strain, help you breathe better, and realign your spine. To find the correct size, measure the circumference of the rib cage just below your chest. This product is not suggested for those who have arm and shoulder mobility issues and does not have anyone to help put the brace on.
