My chiropractor's advice was to use it on race days only when necessary. I stashed the strap at a marathon and probably felt better just knowing I had the strap with me! Used it in training and it seems to do the trick.

I could barely walk half a mile in pure pain, but I would not give up.When I recieved this miracle strap, I could not believe it. I am now able to jog a little bit and I am cycling again , which is what I really wanted to do most.I am taking it easy but, I could not do anything because of the pain.Now pain is bye bye,I am enjoying my excersise like never before. Believe me it is a simple strap that works.
