Click on the video below for an introduction to the Core Body Braid.
Enjoy healthy posture and movement with help from the Core Braid. As the foundation of the innovative Body Braid system, this posture support is easy to use and feels great. It acts as external connective tissue, reinforcing our body's internal connective tissue that gets worn down by injury as we age.
Resilient, spiralling connective tissue, called fascia, wraps around our bones like springs to keep us up from gravity. It holds us securely together with bounce to be free to move. The Core Braid's soft, elastic fabric bands spiral around you, engaging your body's core and gently aligning your different body parts into an integrated whole.
Simply slip on the Core Braid like a jacket and then wrap the lower loops around your knees. Adjust, finding what gives you the greatest comfort. Then, the wonderfully comforting support moves along with you, training your body to naturally relax into aligned, strain-free posture and movement.
Two free extension straps are included in the Body Braid System. Adding these lets you braid down your legs, extending your range of motion for walking or any other activity. It adds a whole new level of aligned coordination to sports, yoga, dance and martial arts.
