Designed by Physiotherapists in conjunction with engineers.
The Groovi-Active-SI-belt is the perfect pelvic compression and support assist for patients with low back or pelvic pain. With a neoprene base to guarantee no slippage, this is the perfect lumbo-pelvic support for the active person. Use the Groovi-Active Belt whilst you perform your stabilising (core) exercises.
Description
Multiple studies over the past 20 years have found that the combination of pelvic support via a sacro-iliac belt (SI-belt), in conjunction with a core stabilisation exercise program, may be the best treatment for sufferers of persistent back & pelvic pain.
The Groovi-SI-belt provides excellent support after abdominal surgery, or for post-operative support after lumbar spine surgery. It is extremely effective in relieving low back pain during and after pregnancy. It improves pelvic control and therefore, improves sports performance during activities such as running, golf & rowing. As a result, pelvic compression belts, such as the Groovi-SI belt, have been found to improve health related quality of life.
The Groovi-SI- belt is innovative in that compression is provided by two power straps, each with a central Velcro attachment, so that the power strap is then stretched from the central point in two different directions. This improves ease of application greatly, compared to other products, without sacrificing any of the compression benefits. Furthermore, you can compress the pelvis where it is needed the most.
If you suffer from continuous pain, it is recommended that you use the belt throughout the day for all your daily loading activities. As symptoms improve, use the belt during activities known to aggravate your symptoms. Wear the Groovi-SI-belt whilst performing all your core stabilisation rehabilitation exercises. This improves core muscle activation. Ultimately, use of the belt should be reduced to activities such as Pilates, gym, golf, cycling or hiking.
For accurate measurement, please measure around the widest part of your hips.

The two innovative elastic straps that are applied to the basic positional strap allow you to regulate the direction and amount of ‘force closure’ for the various stabiliser muscle groups (Multifidus and Transversus Abdominus and the muscles of the pelvic floor).

Groovi-SI-Belt for the Practitioner
Over the past 15 years, the use of a Pelvic compression belt has become recommended for both lumbo-pelvic support and failed load transfer in patients requiring lumbo-pelvic control for pain and/or instability (Mens et al, 2006, Kim et al, 2017).
A combination of an SI-belt with a spinal stabilisation rehabilitation program may be the best treatment intervention for patients with chronic low back pain or pelvic pain (Lariviere et al, 2019).
It has been found to improve health related quality of life, better steadiness during walking activities, modifies muscle recruitment sequencing during loading activities, helps prevent unwanted substitution movements and reinforces and retrains the optimal motion (Kyung-Mi-Park et al, 2010; Heller, 2006; Hammer et al, 2015; Jung et al, 2013,Cha et al, 2016).
