Works if you can figure out how to put in in.

This was so "Turkey" made.. but someone had a great idea and what people with a painful shoulder need. Please follow these instructions bc they ain't givin' ya ANY! It came in a clear plastic bag. That's IT. Ya pull out this blankety feeling thing and see how LONG the straps are, but do.not.panic. I actually bagged it right back up to send back.. But then I read some reviews that sounded legitimately helpful. So here I go with mine:1. Sit aside the LONG solo strap.. it's last step. The 'shirt part' with the long band of velcro is your 'sleeve'. Put it around your arm for a custom fit. I like to make mine more narrow at wrist and fit snug on my arm. Then I can slip it on and off and not mess with all that velcro again.2. Place straps ( with your new custom cuff) over shoulders. Crisscross to bring and attach to front.I actually like my wrist lower than elbow so I velcro accordingly to make that happen. Super snug and comfy!!3. If you want to use that lonnnnng strap, I found a GREAT way to use it, too! I even sleep with this on, bc it's amazing and your arm does not hurt all night bc it slightly moved too far!! Hold one end at center of chest and meet with the other going UNDER the opposite are that has no issue...pull tight and velcro.It really is an ingenious thing somebody's loving family member made!! Your welcome. ♥︎

And it would help if your photos showed how to wear this more clearly. Like don’t wear a black shirt when demonstrating a black brace. Can’t figure out how this is supposed to help. Sending it back. Can’t figure it out.

I broke my shoulder a week ago and struggled to keep my shoulder stable with the flimsy sling the hospital gave me and list so much sleep. I received this today and It was pretty easy to put on by myself with just a little help. I immediately felt relief. It is easy to adjust to the right level of support. Ii already know I will sleep better tonight!

Great idea. However one MAJOR flaw. It doesn't breath at all! You'll overheat in your chest, back, and arm. You'll sweat really bad and the overheating will make you want to take it off after an hour or so. If the chest (back & sling) part had mesh I'd recommend this. I'm sorry, because of this issue I can not recommend it. Unless you're in a cold environment. I went back to the cheap hospital sling and used padding to prevent digging into shoulder muscles.Works great. somewhat comfortable. Phenomenally adjustable. Should have a way to adjust shoulder distance. The thickness is both a blessing and a curse.

Having dislocated my shoulder and Broken it in 3 places just three days before flying to Croatia, getting the bus to the port and the ferry to Hvar I was in a good deal of pain and not sure I could make the journey. I would have stayed at home but the journey was for my youngest daughter's wedding. It was bank hol weekend so didn't get to the fracture clinic. The only support for the arm was a collar and cuff made in A&E. it all happened on Saturday afternoon. On Sunday I went on Amazon and ordered this immobiliser. It arrived on Monday. It's not easy to get on at first when you are in pain but the relief when the shoulder is padded, splinted and immobilised is immense. I was able to make the journey, enjoy the wedding and help the recovery of my broken wing! The down side is it gets very hot. In the high temperatures of Hvar this was definitely a negative - like walking around in my own personal sauna! However that is a small price to pay for the comfort and security this device afforded me. I ordered 3 types of sling. The others were no use to me. Had I had time to trial them I would have got 2 of these. I am ordering another so there is one on and one in the wash. If your shoulder is broken put up with the sweaty feel because this is the best device!

Really wanted to like this. While it supports great, it's unfortunately very Hot. Was hopeful, and still not aware of Any type of "breathable" neoprene.

I recently had a rotator-cuff surgery, the surgery was fine but the recovery wasa nightmare. I could never have imagined that keeping one's shoulder immobilewould be such a painful task. Until of course I switched to this Soles arm sling.There is one peculiar aspect of this item that I really like. It is that ITACTUALLY KEEPS YOUR SHOULDER IMMOBILE! Seriously, the extra strap that goesaround your shoulders, or one shoulder along your chest, provides powerful support to my shoulder and actually keeps it immobile. I do not even understand why the other arm slings are designed the way they are, they simply cradle your arm, they do not support your shoulders!I have been using this while sleeping, outside, or working. And since I switchedto this shoulder immobilizer, I began to feel that my shoulder is ACTUALLYRECOVERING. After two weeks of use, there is a huge drop in the amount of painsI had, along with aches here and there, and I can extend my shoulder to agreater degree now.Aside from doing what it is supposed to do, this immobilizer is verycomfortable, lightweight, hangs on my neck easily and does not make me sweatlike crazy, so that I can actually wear it while sleeping. For me, it is a greatproduct, done right.

Amazingly great deal and super customozable.First those asking about size, this will fit 99% of people out there from smallest to largest other than largest 1% of chest sizes. I wear 50 inch sport coat [actual chest is approx 48 inch & I have very long arms] and this works very well for me. The separate wrap strap is 52 inches when not used but it [& rest of brace] stretches and has velcro on both ends of the strap so you do not need have it wrap onto self. Sometimes I stick ends to the brace. And I am wrapping that strap around then outside of injured shoulder arm.Brace is SUPER COMFY & ADJUSTABLE! Even with just one "good" arm, pretty easily I can get it on alone but you might need be clever depending where you are using it & which end start with. Of corse if have a helper ther really easy to put on.I NEEDED NEW sling since both slings I got from MD [one free & sadly had to pay for other] after my rotator cuff surgery caused NECK MUSCLE SPASMS due to single strap design pulling on opposite side neck. Double crossing straps on this are wonderful & easily can adjust how tight or loose fit you may want.Plus very easy to velcro a pillow [or I use a memory foam travel beck pillow] with this sling as well as I sometimes use just the pillow part from my doctor provided sling together with this.This is so useful I'm likely buying more as it also works great to hold heat or ice pack in place and more than just shoulder. So useful can improvise using this or part or it for virtually anywhere on your body!STOP SHOPPING, BUY ONE OR MORE OF THESE NOW AS THIS IS ALL YOU NEED! Save money but more so enjoy all the ways you can use this.
