Best Bras for Back Pain
Are you looking for the best bras for back problems? If you, like thousands of other women spend a lot of time at work stood or sat all day, then you likely have suffered from shoulder, back and neck strain due to supporting the weight of your breasts.
Sitting or standing all day means that often it’s very difficult to maintain good posture – entering into a vicious cycle of slouching to ‘relieve’ discomfort whilst the slouching causes more discomfort! If this sounds familiar, then it’s likely you would benefit from a posture support bra, especially if you have a fuller bust.
Support bras have been specifically designed to support the weight of your breasts all day, every day. They work by reducing the pressure on shoulder straps, which can pull your body forward, meaning you feel the weight of your breasts less. Instead of the shoulder straps taking all the weight, the back strap/ bra back takes the weight of the breasts.
These bras make it easier to sit or stand upright, with your back straight and they provide a very welcome improvement in day to day comfort – leading to a higher quality of life with less aches and pains.
Below, we list and discuss some of our most popular support bras and posture support bras. We have picked out some recommendations for the best bras for back pain.
