Customer Rating: Summary: Very Helpful for my Aching ITBS! Comment: I developed ITBS this summer from over use, too much interval training. I had knifing pains in the side and back of the knee and lower thigh and was unable to walk down hill or down stairs. Although I was skeptical at first, I started using this strap and found that it greatly improved my ability to exercise and walk without pain. The strap allowed me to exercise MODERATELY while re-habbing the leg. This product is well made and substantial. One bit of advice - peel the band off gently when done exercising. I was ripping it off quickly after my workouts - the Velcro started to separate a bit from the band. So I am now careful with it and it is holding up very well. I highly recommend it!! Customer Rating: Summary: Great Effective Product! Comment: I had my doubts about this product, but it works great! My IT band was really hurting and this strap has almost alleviated all the pain regardless of running distance. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Merchant Comment: Product was delivered as promised with fast shipping. I am 100% pleased with my purchase. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Fast Fix Comment: This is a great product for the fast fix. Works the first time you use it. Would not reccomend this product for someone who constantly has ITB problems because it does slip. This was great for me until I could stretch my band out and be able to run without one again. If you are looking to see if bands work for your problem I would say get this one! Customer Rating: Summary: Miracle Item - You MUST buy this if you are in pain Comment: I'm always skeptical of these comments (obviously thinking the manufacturer/distributor is doing the writing). So, please trust me when I say what a miracle this product is. I'm a very active person - I teach aerobics, and do cardio every day. BUT, I've never been able to run due to sharp knee pain that I experience while running. I read others' comments, and decided to give this a try. It has changed my life. For the first time, I have to stop running because I'm tired - not because I'm in pain. I definitely will buy some back-ups so that I always have one in hand. I just signed up for my first 5k. If that's not proof that this thing works, I'm not sure what else I can say.
