CostoBlock - Firm Thoracic Pod for Costochondritis Relief, HSA/FSA Eligible, Tietze Syndrome, Relieve Chest, Upper and Lower Back Pain

I place this right between or slightly below the line between my shoulder blades and it resets my upper back & has been the cure for my costochondritis. Anytime I feel a little ache in my front ribs or floating ribs iny back, I can focus on using this back pod & it goes away. The relief is amazing since I lived with the pains for a long time before finding this. Also, when I feel like my whole upper back is jammed down, this opens everything up. I do think it takes awhile at first so just try it everyday until it becomes second nature and a quick release and relief as you’re further along in healing.

I am getting the same relief as I do with a similar "block" that I use at the chiropractor's office. The only drawback is that this slides around while trying to position it. I covered it with a grippy sock (the kind you get at the hospital) and that works great.

This product would be so much better is it had some grip to keep it in place. It slides and I could not get it to stay in the position I wanted it.

Way too hard. Not what I expected. Very Small.I asked for a Refund but, they sent me another one without my permission.If I wanted to return the first one, I sure as heck didn’t want another one just like it!Not happy, no way to get ahold of seller to talk to them directly.

So glad I got this. Really helping my neck and shoulders and opening up my chest. This is super slick on the carpet, so I put a little cork on the bottom so it doesn’t move too much when you lay on it.

It made my pain worse. Not worth the money.

The one reviewer’s suggestion to use anti-slip furniture pads was excellent. I bought them when I ordered the CostoBlock for a few dollars; two pads keep it in place. The CostoBlock is too hard for my spine. I am using it because I am in front of a monitor screen all day, not for costochondritis. I had to fold a hand towel and lay it over the block. It takes a few minutes to find the right position. I’m going to try using it daily and see if I get more used to the firmness, but I really wish they had made it with rubber.
