Welcome to Body Braid

Here you will find our lineup of supportive comfort products.

There are three elements to Body Braid: 1) Core, 2) Extensions and finally, 3) Arm Braid. They can be combined as just the Core, Core + extensions (System), and System + Arm (Full System).

Our Core + Extensions can be either 1) Extra Support (double layer) or 2) Light (single layer).

All of these elements are "one size fits most" for people ranging between 100 to 350 pounds. For smaller people there is a new product called Core Small (for those weighing 95-120 pounds with narrow shoulders).

*Note: our Arm Product is not sold by itself because it is the trickiest and most advanced to use, so we only do it as a package in the Full System or separately if you already have the System.

CORE BRAID

The Core Braid aligns your body's core and is the core of the Body Braid approach. It activates and retrains your core muscles. This is an important introduction before advancing to extend this benefit to your legs and arms. The Core Braid supports the main shoulder joint by stabilizing the shoulder blades onto your back. This is the most vulnerable joint for people with hypermobility.

The Arm Braid primarily provides support for the elbow in preventing hyperextension. It also reinforces the rotator cuff joint at the tip of the shoulder. Depending on how you wear it, It can give support for your wrist.

To benefit most shoulder issues, the Core Braid supports alignment for the entire shoulder girdle, stabilizing your shoulder blades onto you back. This is why it is important to spend time getting familiar with the Core Braid before adding the Arm Braid. They can be worn together or separately.

  • The size chart above is an approximation of your arm volume, which is difficult to determine. If you seem between two sizes, better to go with a larger size.
