I like the compression for torso and abdominal areas. It is easy to put on (hooks and zipper) without having to reach over my head and pull/twist. Big factor for me as I have connective tissue disorder hEDS and can easily injure myself just by putting on a tight shirt. I also suffer from orthostatic intolerance/postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome which in my case gets more severely triggered having to reach up and above with my arms. Post exertional malaise can be triggered as well if I use my arms too much. Overall it helps me feel more stable, aids in proprioception especially when I exercise and compression gives joints /back more support when I sit or stand. I did wish the shoulder/arm compression was a bit more pronounced and ended up downsizing from L to M to have more shoulder support. Still bit too loose though there and the shirt works best for certain proportions thus not best fit for all body types. That's why I rated it 4 out of 5. Overall still very happy and it is very comfortable to wear for prolonged time periods.
According to the measurements, I ordered an XS though was worried it would be too hard to get on. But it fits well and no trouble getting it on. I am 5'8" and 122 pounds. I have been having left shoulder issues for several months and the AlignMed Bra is helping to manage things while I continue to work with my PT. I did not have a specific injury but have had trouble off and on for years with shoulder / back / knee issues on my left (dominant) side. Woke up one morning with severe left shoulder pain and have been working to get back on track ever since. The AlignMed bra helps with managing things and reducing pain during this process.
I had a lumbar fusion 6 months ago. The shirt helps keep me standing straight. It also extends my ability to walk further. It is much more comfortable than expected. Definitely a worthwhile purchase.

They changed their materials from when I first ordered 5 years ago. I now need the next size up. But it’s still supportive and helps my neck pain!

Thank you for your great feedback, Daniel! We love seeing you in action and are thrilled to hear your Alignmed Posture Shirt is working well for you. We truly appreciate your support!
I wear the shirt about 9 to 10 hours a day 5 days a week under my work dress clothes and It really helps with the posture. The tight stomach also helps remind me to engage my stomach muscles to strengthen them for when I am not wearing the shirt. I like it a lot and will be ordering a couple more to rotate through the week.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for sharing your experience, Josh! We appreciate your support. Yes, the Alignmed products can help with core engagement too!
I bought the shirt to assist me with hyper mobility. It is snug fitting and a little hard to get on and off but comfortable while you’re wearing it. I’m not sure yet if it’s actually helping me or not time will tell.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your review, Bonnie. It looks like a great fit. We encourage you to pull down the Posture Shirt as much as possible around your hips to create more resistance. Also, we do have a Zipper Posture Shirt that is easier to get on and off. If you need anything from us, please let us know. We are happy to help.
I have hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome and wear these shirts daily under my clothes. They are essential in my daily life. Without this shirt and CW-X leggings, I have much more fatigue and pain. I would love a crew neck version as well. The only issue I experience is the neck and sleeves stick out of my regular clothes. If the neck wasn’t so high and you could shorten the sleeves a bit, it would be 10 star product. Thank you for making supportive clothes that make my overall health better. I wear a small and am 103 pounds and 5’3”.

On the 3rd anniversary of having my left shoulder replaced I showed my shoulder surgeon all the areas in my shoulder and scapulas that were still hurting badly. He recommended the AlignMed shirt, saying that if I wear it at night it might help with the pain and allow me to sleep better. I ordered the women's zipper front shirt in black and within 2 nights I was sleeping with 95% of the pain gone. Since then I have ordered the pants (to help my knees and hip) as well as a bra and another shirt, this time blue and non-zippered. I'm 67 years old and while wearing these garments feel as if I am 40. I recommend them to anyone with osteoarthritis, osteopenia or osteoporosis. I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and I particularly recommend this for those of us who have it. I rate these products 5 out of 5. CP

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, CP! We're thrilled to hear that our Zipper Posture Shirt helped reduce your pain and improve your sleep so quickly.

We truly appreciate your recommendation and are honored to be part of your wellness journey. Thank you for your trust and support!
I have fibro and scapular thoracic dyskinesia and always struggling with neck, shoulder, and back pain. I work a lot on a computer which further compounds that stress, particularly with holding my scapula in place. The AlignMed shirt compresses and keeps everything supported and in place. I find it helpful and am ordering the bra soon! The only thing that I don’t care for is the fit in terms of coverage. I have the white shirt and it shows around my neck and shoulders when I wear a t-shirt. Perhaps if it were cropped more, it would be less visible in a top other than in a full crew neck or turtleneck.
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that your Alignmed Posture Shirt has been helping provide support and comfort for your neck, shoulders, and back, especially during long hours at the computer. It's wonderful to know that the added support has made a positive difference for you. We were going to recommend a Posture Bra since it is easier to hide as an undergarment. We hope you'll love the bra just as much when you receive it! Thank you again for your support and for being part of the Alignmed community.
I’m recovering from a surgical injury to my shoulder, and I needed some extra support to keep my shoulder in place. This bra gently supports my shoulders without being uncomfortable. I’m very happy with my purchase!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Amber! We’re thrilled to hear you love the support and fit of your Alignmed Posture Sports Bra. And thank you for sharing your photo—we love seeing it in action! 💕
Quite a bit more compression than the other style of sports bra, which I appreciate for higher impact activity. I did get the same size as my other sports bra, but this one feels a bit tighter. Not excessively tight, and I’m not sure if going up a size would necessarily be a better fit. But this would be a really good bra to wear for shorter amounts of time because of the tightness.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for sharing your thoughtful feedback, Denise! We're so glad to hear you're enjoying the added compression and support for higher-impact activities.

We love knowing that it's comfortable and effective enough for you to wear daily.
I have scapular winging that has made my desk job unbearable at times. This shirt decreased my pain levels by maybe 75%! Exciting after trying so many other things. I did accidentally damage my shirt by running it through the dryer -- be sure to air dry -- so I need a new one. I'm planning on trying the taping shirt next to see if I can get even better results.

The shirt works well, the only “negative thing is the zipper might show through a shirt a bit so if you are concerned about that don’t get the zip up version. However, I believe the zip up is a better fit.

I’m a returning customer, and this is my third SpinalQ over many years! As a local healthcare worker, I use this product regularly to support my posture and help prevent injuries. Alignmed truly works, and I highly recommend it.

Knowing that the Alignmed products help you stay supported, comfortable, and injury-free on the job is the ultimate compliment. Thank you for being a loyal part of the Alignmed family, and thank you for everything you do for our community!
I absolutely LOVE this white AlignMed posture bra. I have been wearing AlignMed posture bras since 2015 after cervical spinal surgery. I wear one every single day and have so many and used to only wear the nude color and now I have some in white and black. I have found that the nude colored bras do stretch quite easily and quickly and lose their posture pull, whereas the white is more in the middle and the black has the most firm fabric that doesn’t stretch easily. I do wish that the nude bras were more like the black. The white seems so far to not stretch too easily, but time will tell.
I am 5’3” and between 121–125 pounds. I am a cup size B. I have tried the extra small previously and found it to be too tight for me. The small seems to be the perfect fit, the only problem is that as I’ve said, the only nude bras in particular tend to stretch quickly and lose that perfect fit & posture correcting pull.
Store owner replied:
Wow, thank you for being with us since 2015! Your photo is great, and we are so grateful for your long-term support, especially after your spinal surgery.
Your breakdown of the fabric stretch between the colors is amazing feedback—you're a true Alignmed expert! Different dye processes can impact fabric firmness, but we completely understand wanting that extra-firm support across all colors, and we’re sharing your notes with our development team. Thank you for sharing your height, weight, and sizing details, too; this will help so many others in our community find their perfect fit. Cheers to many more years of good posture! 😊
This shirt is great. After wearing it for a couple days, my upper back pain disappeared. I am wearing it daily for better posture!
Store owner replied:
Hearing this completely made our day! There is nothing better than knowing the Alignmed products are making a real, tangible difference in how you feel. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your success story—here's to many more pain-free, perfectly aligned days ahead!
I bought the AlignMed posture t-shirt for everyday wear and overall I’m quite satisfied with it. The quality is good, and the fabric feels comfortable against the skin. It does seem to help with posture, though the fit isn’t perfect for shorter heights (156 cm in my case), as it tends to wrinkle a bit.
The inner construction with hooks is noticeable but manageable. The transparent support inserts are slightly stiff and can cause a mild prickling sensation at times.
In terms of design, I would prefer a V-neck or a higher round neckline—the current oval cut doesn’t feel very flattering or unisex.
Overall, it’s a well-made product with some minor comfort and design drawbacks.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your review and photos, Egor! We appreciate your feedback. We encourage you to pull down the Posture Shirt as far as possible around your hips. This will help to create more resistance over your shoulders and back. If you feel that it is too long, you can fold it back up at the desired length.
This bra has been a game changer for me and my recovery from an auto accident. It helps my posture and helps me manage the pain in my neck. You definitely have to work up to wearing it all day, but once you do, it helps! I hope to one day not have to use it but for now it’s a staple in my wardrobe. I’m definitely going to order more to have on hand
Store owner replied:
Great photo and review! Thank you so much. Yes, ease into wearing it because it can definitely create soreness the next day because of all the muscle activation from the previous day. Similar to working out.
As someone with POTS and hypermobility, full length compression is a daily need to feel my best. I’ve tried many different brands specifically recommended by my health care professionals but out of all of them, the AlignMed leggings have made the biggest difference and importantly, are comfortable enough to want to wear every day.
Store owner replied:
Great review and photo, Jennifer! We appreciate your awesome feedback. Alignmed is proud to support the POTS, EDS and Hypermobility communities.
I have had back pain and rounded shoulders for years because of my heavy breasts. The Alignmed bra has noticeably improved my posture and my shoulders are more relaxed when wearing it. It's so comfortable I wear it all day.
Store owner replied:
Awesome review and photo, Karen! We are so happy the Posture Bra is helping to improve your posture and rounded shoulders. Comfort is a plus for all day wear.
This posture support bra helps to keep your shoulders back and in alignment.
Store owner replied:
Great review and photo, Bonnie! We appreciate your feedback. Keeping your shoulders back is important and Alignmed is here to help.
It is wonderful to have a bra that doesn't just pull my shoulders down and dig. The cloth over the bottom of the zipper and extra cloth protection behind the hooks and the zipper are great.
I just wish the zipper wasn't so visible thru work shirts. It could use a cover too.
My posture definitely improves when I am wearing it.
Store owner replied:
Thank you, Lacy! We appreciate your feedback and great photo!
So quick backstory - I get massages monthly and a new therapist recommended a posture sports bra b/c well, I needed it... I did some research & there was either this one or one double the price, I decided to try this first. I just got it, I'm small framed but large upper chest, so I went w/Med, glad I did, it fits like a dream. I usually do zip ups and bought this on impulse then saw they have the zip up but it was too late to change it out. Well, this is 10x more comfortable than my front zips & well, it's amazing ... super comfortable! Great quality... I plan to get another one. I don't know if it'll help w/posture but I'm sure hoping so! Regardless, this comfort beats the ones I'm used to wearing which are prob 1/2 the price but this is worth the extra $$.
Store owner replied:
Wow! Thank you for your review and photo, Nicole! We appreciate you and we are glad your therapist recommended you the products. There are many companies who may claim to do the same as Alignmed, although Alignmed is the world leader in posture apparel.
This shirt was my first piece of compression wear, and I’m kicking myself for not buying one before.
I have a CSF leak, and am hyper-mobile, and I have greatly reduced the number of rib subluxations I get everyday, and also have a bit more energy.
Store owner replied:
Wow! Great review and photo, Mo! We appreciate your support and we are so glad you found Alignmed! Amazing benefits!
I absolutely love this shirt. It has helped reduce my pain tremendously. Planning to order another one. I have tos and had a rib and two scalenes removed and pec minor release. Have done pt, chiropractor, Botox injections in my back, dry needling among many other things. This shirt is what has helped the most.
Store owner replied:
Amazing review and images, Amy! We thank you for sharing your experience and we thank you for your support. We are glad you found Alignmed and it is superior to many other expensive treatments. Alignmed performs the best.
Amazing for heds, helps with proprioception and support whenever Im in vertical positions throughout the day. Recommend going a size or two smaller than you think for more support and so the shoulders are snug and kept in alignment.
Store owner replied:
Great review and photo, Badger! We agree, downsizing will help to create more muscles resistance on your back, although we want you to be comfortable in it.
I love this shirt so much for my hypermobile body. I am wearing an X-Small in the photo but it's a little too small and the next purchase I plan to get a small.
Sizing: 5'0, 115-120lbs, 30DD. The arms are a bit too tight and it bunches/rolls up, but it's not enough that I didn't return/exchange it. You do not need to a bra underneath.
Style: I chose the zip up for quick overstimulated escapes.
Effect: I immediately feel relief putting this shirt on. I can feel things shifting gently back into place and sometimes even feel a few pops. I like sleeping in this shirt, I wake up with less pain in the morning from not being in awkward painful positions all night. The shirt does make you sweat a bit so sometimes I need a shower in the morning, but it's worth it.
Store owner replied:
Excellent review and photo, Shaley! We appreciate you sharing this. We agree. A small may be a more ideal and comfortable fit. Sleeping in Alignmed is amazing! It truly helps and assists in getting better rest.
It really helps me to get through long days of work with EDS. As a teacher it is alot of standing and carrying thing to and from classes, before i had alot of pain in my back and shoulders but this really helps! Recommendations for this in combination with the sports bra. The sizing chart was spot on so it fits perfectly
Store owner replied:
Amazing review and photo, Jonas! We appreciate your feedback and we understand how tough it can be throughout your days as a teacher. We are happy you found Alignmed to assist you through your days. Alignmed is helping many throughout the world within the EDS and hypermobile communities.

Amazzzinggg! Thank you so much for sharing! No pain with Alignmed is the best way of life.
This has been a great investment in my health. I spend a lot of time sitting treating patients and my back pain since Im using the Sport Bra it has been 0 pain. When I look at myself in the mirror I don't have to force myself to stretch my spine because it's already aligned.
Store owner replied:
Wow! Excellent review and photo, Leydianis. We greatly appreciate your feedback. We are so happy to hear that you have improved your pain to zero, especially while treating patients all day in uncomfortable positions.
Love the shirt! It really helps me maintain proper posture and has helped me with my back problems.
