I bought a belt yesterday. I have been suffering with bilateral SI joint pain for years. There is so much relief. I can’t believe it.

[@SamVisnic]

Very happy to hear that!

[@thaiisbraaga]

how are you today?

[@crichards3533]

I thought that was a guitar behind him at first glance. 😄

[@ProductionD3]

Yes..... Spinocaster 😂

[@staindmode]

Lol me too 😂😂

[@truman3004]

[@emmareames6083]

I couldn't sleep for 3 days with pain, I started using it and finally I am sleeping. This belt saved me

[@SamVisnic]

Happy to hear!

[@beckyjohnstone1610]

My belt arrived today. I have been diagnosed and treated with steroid injections. The injections work but wear off. Acupuncture helped some. The belt did provide immediate relief. It usually feels like I'm being stabbed with a knife in the SI joint. The relief was immediate.

[@SamVisnic]

Good to hear it helped!

[@Lisa2010Photography]

This is an excellent and thorough video which I highly recommend to other SIJ pain sufferers! I had the issue for 4 years and have been using this belt for 3. The belt is extremely helpful when you want to prevent further injuries and provide stability during exercises. I wish I had seen this video earlier as it explains the proper alignment of the belt on your body to maximize the effectiveness of such. I truly appreciate this video.

[@SamVisnic]

Thanks for the comment. The finer details really do make the difference.

[@Em-di3jq]

I don’t know if you read these on older videos, but thank you so very much! I’m crying watching this. I’ve just been diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos later in life even though I’ve had major issues since I was a kid. I’ve been bed ridden for 3yrs because of complications/multiple unnecessary surgeries & I use to be extremely active & was a certified yoga instructor before I had to stop working because I was in so much debilitating pain. Now that I’ve been properly diagnosed w/ EDS I’m finally getting the ball rolling on getting proper help. I truly think I’ve deteriorated my body from yoga w/o knowing about EDS. I pushed all my limits because I’ve always seen myself as a weak person who had to prove myself & not someone who has a medical disability. I’m so glad I found your video. This really clarified that it’s my ligaments that are the issue & the relief of knowing I won’t weaken my muscles if I use one of these is beyond words! I’m so scared of doing more damage to my body & so many doctors I’ve seen aren’t familiar with EDS and have done more damage. I wish there were more people like you in the medical field. You have no idea how much this means to a lot of us. Thank you!!!❤️

[@Goldmine810]

This video was EXACTLY what I needed to see THANK YOU VERY MUCH I was Studying Dr. John Bergman and he has a few videos on hips THANKS AGAIN !

Welcome!

[@smedlydumpsterjuice8875]

Unbelievable there is such help for si joint sufferers. I'm in the VA system and I have yet heard anything about si treatment. Been in the VA system now for 19 years here in NE Florida, complaining about the same cronic issues ever since. 5 years ago, they discovered my dysfunctional si joint. Since nothing had been done about it, I'm now in my wheelchair because I've been unable to walk with a cane for years now. i would love to have one of those belts, as the VA appears clueless about them or about injecting me. At least they tell me my mri shows no problems with my back. So I wonder why I have significant neuropathy in my left leg, and they no longer issue opiods for the ridiculous pain. You would think Vets would have better care instead of crippling us. Sorry the tangent. The VA does this to me. Thank you for this informative video, greatly appreciated.

[@444Relaxing]

Sorry you are going through all of this. The VA does in fact have this exact belt as I was given one in Nevada. Maybe you could call the pain clinic or physical therapy to see if they can get you one. Hope you feel better.

[@rachelsanders2314]

Thanks for your service. I hope you get relief soon.

[@autieangelsautievision4782]

Thank you! I have EDS and thus was really helpful. I was wearing it too high.

[@SamVisnic]

Thats a common problem! Glad my video helped.

[@irenehumphries1910]

Wow the test worked. I could not believe in the increase in ROM. I have probably suffered from this since I was a child. No doctor could diagnose it. They just blew me off. Now to do the rest of the recommended things. Thank you.

[@donaldlamont2656]

One thing you do not mention is that the Serola Sacroiliac Belt has rubber backing and a large number of people, perhaps 10% of the population, are allergic to the latex in rubber, and end of with rashes and welts on their skin. Also, many people are also allergic to the chemicals used in making rubber, and are allergic to the rubber for this reason as well.

[@TheKinderdoc]

I have had SI joint pain for a long time. Once I had a major flare up when attending a county fair. I couldn’t walk. Ugh due to the pain. I took a lots woven belt and pulled tightly around the pelvic bones and got significant relief, allowing me to walk with much less pain.

[@jofromWI]

Even worse, had it flare up at Epcot after paying for tickets and being there only two hours I was done

[@EmoEmu]

Awesome! A 7 year old video just helped me a bunch. Thank you!

[@victoriagoodman2564]

Excellent video. Thank you for the explanations and answering key concerns. Very thorough.

[@gerrygizzygarcia2572]

I hv a heirnated disc spinal ste and a extrusion so hopefully this belt helps over time cuz my pain is no joke

[@borrowinbars9162]

[@sherwinchia8114]

great information presented in this video. Thank you for the help Sam!

[@zxedtexz]

I have spent months studying treating painful joints naturally and found a fantastic website at Pabs Pain Pundit (look it up on google)

[@beepamperedwholistichealing]

Excellent explanation in video. Thanks!

[@haphazardlark1502]

I have EDS and awful coordination and shoulder problems and while the serola is INCREDIBLE when I put it on right… I can almost never put it o. Right without assistance and end up hurting my arms. I’ve found some broader ones that cover more of the lower back and have more sacral padding and lace that I know don’t provide as much stability and compression, but they’re a good backup for days where my pains bad enough even a waistband from pants hurts, let alone this. The proprioceptive feedback from them helps me calm down and relax even if they’re more hugging my pelvis than properly stabilizing it. I wish I lived with someone who could put the dang thing on for me, lying on a table and having someone who knows what they’re doing position it would be so convenient!! (Plus I’m autistic so my sensory and motor issues are a mess, and I can NEVER regulate tension. Knitting, thing my shoes, massage, compression gear…. Everyone says “snug not tight” but I have no idea what that means. Once again I really gotta recruit a patient friend to adjust this stuff for me lol)

[@irmaramirez5133]

Thank you! Best explanation ever!

[@bobl1769]

The belt works and allows me to walk with more comfort. Hope it works for you.

Hello Sam and thanks for this excellent information. In your experience, will the belt exacerbate hip pain that seems to go along with the SI joint pain?

[@gamaltaher9714]

Thanks

[@JesusLivesandRules]

I have recently had an MRI show that the reason for my pain is SI Joint Arthritis. Will an SI Joint belt help me? I am also going to be seeing a doctor for SI Joint manipulation and exercise. I have been having this severe pain for over a year now. Last year it put me in the ER and I was unable to walk using my left leg for several weeks. Thanks for the video.

[@SamVisnic]

JesusLivesandRules Maybe or maybe not. Unfortunately it doesn't work for everyone.

[@debra6671]

Maybe get a si joint injection. I just got one and big difference so far

[@dsawake58]

Still unsure how tight and how to use if you only have issues on one side.

[@ashokgupta2352]

Tell me which belt I should use

[@dorannelong2395]

Thank you! As a physical therapist, and author of Your Body Book Guide to Better Body Motion with Less Pain; this is very helpful and well presented information.

[@ErkanER1227]

Just first use a regular belt to check if SI belt could help.

[@SamVisnic]

If applied correctly that can be a good test I agree.

how would I know what i should do for my SI joint...to relif the pain whether to help it move or to fix it with a belt...?? i really really wish u answer me

[@ca8e8ac41]

I've had si joint pain and inability to walk, lift, and do daily activities for 4 years since I have my son. its so depressing. why can't it just be fixed I'm tired of being in pain 24/7 not able to lay down or stand up for more than a few minutes. I'm just upsetting myself now.

Get the belt. Life will get better! It does move up a bit if you bend over but Well worth it for pain relief! It is Very painful And depressing having this pain 24/7. Go to Amazon. $25. You can thank me later. 🤗

[@ajrajr2001]

Hi what was the name of the belt that you mentioned, please. Sarolo??

[@MrsXx]

I have pelvic bone instability but the professional who looked at the x-ray couldn't tell me where. Could this help?

[@gigeye]

I was told by my physical therapist that I should get an SI belt and wear it for the rest of my life. I have EDS type 3. I have a lot of pain in my hips and lower back on each side of my spine. she told me that I was pointing directly to my si joint and that my muscles are knotted and spasming around the joint. this is the first time that I have heard of sacroiliac joint. I have been told that pretty much all of my ligaments and tendons throughout mt body are loose. any info that may help from anyone may have that are experiencing the same type of problems would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[@karinayerena3575]

Dr Axe has good information about it. Collagen helps muscle, tendons and ligaments.

[@huzaifapatel3398]

Hey Heather, I also have EDS, with accompanying hip and lower back pain as yourself. Did you get the belt and how's your pain recently?

[@truman3004]

@@huzaifapatel3398 I stand all day for work and lived with pain for Yrs!!! This is Awesome. Life changing for me. It reduced my pain by 80 to 100% on certain days. It does move a little bit up when you bend down but to live with reduced pain is Awesome. Hope you feel better soon!

[@eaglewind77]

okey.. So where .. How does one go about Getting this Belt ? Thanks

[@SamVisnic]

You can get the Serola belt via Amazon.

[@m.l.s3453]

Hmmm... I can't lift my left leg at all because of pain...wonder what that means?

[@AhsanRocky]

where does the pain happen ? check for disk prolapse ... if the pain happens if some one else pulls it up straight .. then you might have a disk prolapsed .. consult with the doc ..do the MRI .. mine was fixed by taking rest and daily dose of naproxen 500 mg for a long time .. atleast 2 months .. and also vitamin b supplements .. after 2 months the dose was reduced .. then fast forward after a year some discomfort and fast forward 3 years i dont seem to feel any pain or there is nothing on the MRI as well .. if you have numbness or paralysis on the leg .. you might need a surgery .. talk to your doctor ...

[@AhsanRocky]

I also did some exercise after few weeks may be .. any ways just consult your physician ...

[@misterbulger]

Do they make a heavy duty belt for bodybuilders? I already wear a stiff leather back belt for that but it doesnt address my SI.

[@AnupShah]

Hey Sam, Thanks for great info. Actually I am diagnosed with SI pain but my doc advice me to use LS Belt will that be okay or is there any cons if I keep wearing it?

[@eli4delmar]

I've had a lumbar fusion. Have not been able to wear regularly snug pants since. Also, have been diagnosed with b/l SI Joint problems.....do you think this would still work for me? The fusion is at L4-L5. Sitting & standing for more than 10-15 mins is painful, and I have (shorter) right leg numbness with standing or walking more than 15 mins.... numbness goes away after sitting down. I've had 2 SI joint injections. They did not help.

[@TheLisaCorine]

[@Shadowcat2503]

Can the belt be used to exercise? As in, will I be able to do squats, rdl, lunges and so on, with it on? I get pain in my right lower back every time I exercise legs, or lean down to pick up something, even sitting sometimes feels annoying. I'm suspecting sacroiliac joint might be the cause but so far my physio and doctor didn't take my issue seriously...

[@debra6671]

I think you may need a doctor who listens to you. Prayers for your pain relief. 🙏

[@shahindersingh3925]

Can i wear an SI BELT under clothing for work etc?

[@mfranck1]

Shahinder Singh Of course but it might chaf skin since it's a firm material. I prefer to wear the Serola belt over my clothes and wear a longer shirt to cover it.

[@AndreaMarren]

I don't have SI joint pain but my PT says to wear one because my SI falls out of place. Will this really help me?

[@mfranck1]

Andrea Marren Yes

[@katsons3]

how long do you recommend one to wear the SI Belt? what are you other videos on muscle imbalance. I have an SI issue and as well as muscle imbalance which is causing me to have a mild scoliosis. I have history of back issues that I have dealt with for the pass 5 years. I have been seeing this great chiropractor for 4 years to help with my situation, but I do not feel it is getting better. Yes, I have been in and out of several Pt clinics as well and let go due to insurances will not pay for more than 30 visits a year. And they all say it is all I can do for you now. so I am feeling a bit discourage. Any support from you would be greatly appreciated. TY

[@zelenbrat]

Check hanna sommatics education and try it

[@minomarazzini]

What about using it while seated? Is it possible?

[@SamVisnic]

Sure, it can be worn in any position, but I would not put it on in that position. Supine in my experience is always best.

[@SamVisnic]

A belt by itself won't "fix" everything. Its a tool in the overall therapeutic approach. Using the right corrective movement approach along with a belt can provide excellent results. You might want to check out my site for more resources.
