Shoulder support for a straight back
Shoulder support with a Shoulder Brace
Our shoulder support products provide support for the upper back and promote a straight back and correct shoulder posture. Our posture braces – which also go by the names back brace and shoulder brace – can be adjusted and is a form of a brace that provide support for the area around the shoulders and upper back. The back brace for posture correction works by pulling the shoulders slightly backwards with help from the adjustable straps that are tightened as needed. This promotes a correct shoulder posture while simultaneously relieving the muscles in the upper back and shoulders, thereby preventing and relieving tensions and pain in the area.

When to wear a Shoulder Brace?
You can wear the shoulder brace – or back brace – at any time; whenever the upper body needs stability and relief, or when you simply need posture support. It is ideal to wear when sitting by the desk and the upper body needs support to prevent rounded shoulders. In this type of situation, the shoulder brace helps straighten the back, thereby preventing muscle tensions. If you tend to fall into a bad posture when standing for a longer period, a shoulder brace is also a great tool to promote a more natural posture. The shoulder brace can even be a great support when cooking, going for a walk, doing the laundry or the dishes – in situations where you might need the shoulder brace as a reminder of the good posture.
How long should I wear my Back Brace?
The shoulder brace – or back brace – for posture support can be worn as needed, and it is individual how long you can wear the shoulder brace at a time. Therefore, we recommended to start slow and wear the back brace for around 30-60 minutes at a time. Our recommendations are that you wear the back brace as needed and take it off when the back feels tired. If you experience pain or discomfort, then try shortening the time. On the contrary, you can increase the time if you need support for a longer period. Taking a few hours break from wearing it, your back might be ready for you to wear it again later the same day. Just make sure to listen to your body.
The difference between our Basic and Comfort+ shoulder supports
At ActivePosture® you find shoulder support in different qualities and prices. All shoulder supports promote a better posture and a straight back while providing support and relief. The Basic shoulder brace is our simplest shoulder support device. It is designed in neoprene, so the material is soft, and it provides a firm support. In comparison, our Comfort+ shoulder support provides more support and is also slightly more comfortable to wear. This is due to the product design, which is more advanced, and due to the materials from which the shoulder brace is made.
