About The Serola Sacroiliac Belt
The Serola Sacroiliac Belt treats a variety of common problems that result in light, moderate, and even severe back pain. By wrapping the belt around a specific part of the hips, it provides stability to the base of your spine and acts as an external ligament to help put the Sacroiliac Joint back into a normal range of motion. Doing so provides pain relief caused by pulled muscles, ligament stresses, strains, muscle spasms, and pinched nerves in the hips and pelvis. By wearing the Serola Sacroiliac Belt throughout your day, chances of injury are lessened considerably during either work or play.
Key Benefits & Features
- The Serola Sacroiliac Belt’s patented design makes it the only belt that effectively normalizes the function of the sacroiliac joint.
- Non-elastic layer mimics the action of ligaments and provides a stopping point at the end of the normal range of motion.
- The elastic layer provides compression to help pull the SIJ together and maintain correct posture
- No irritating buckles or pads
- Takes place of the ligaments, not the muscles, therefore improving muscle function and strength throughout the body
- Can be worn for extended periods without causing muscle weakness or atrophy
Serola Sacroiliac Belt FAQs
How does the Serola Belt work?
The Serola SI Belt is designed to hold the SIJ together so the likelihood of it opening beyond normal between treatments is greatly reduced. If the joint re-opens, the Serola SI Belt will minimize re-injury to the joint and its ligaments. During rehabilitation, the Serola SI Belt holds the sacrum to the ilia with the proper tension so that, during exercise, as you bring the ilia backward, it carries the sacrum with it. The ligaments are not stressed and the joint remains intact; this is critical to proper rehabilitation. Too much or too little tension will create muscular spasms and inhibition.
What is the difference between the Serola Sacroiliac Belt and a Lumbar Belt?
Lumbar belts focus on replacing or taking place of the muscles. They are designed to increase pressure in the abdomen cavity in order to take the stress off the discs. Lumbar belts should also be worn only with limited use. The Serola Sacroiliac Belt is designed to take place of the ligaments, allowing normal function for the muscles because they are no longer being forced to contract to stabilize the joint and ligaments. Taking the pressure off of the SI Joint results in pain reduction, effectively stronger muscles, better circulation and can be worn all day with no negative effects.
What is the recommended length of time to wear the Serola Sacroiliac Belt?
The Serola Sacroiliac Belt can be worn 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, even while sleeping. There is no limitation to how long the belt can be worn and wearing the belt for long periods of time will not cause any negative effects.
