From the company:
For 24 years, physical therapists, sports-medicine trainers and chiropractors have been using the Serola Sacroiliac Belt in their treatments, but 2014 marks the first time Serola Biomechanics is making a concerted effort to reach golfers directly. The Serola Sacroiliac Belt is designed to help alleviate back pain and increase golf performance by providing relief to the Sacroiliac joints (SI joints), located in the lower back below the hip bones but above where the legs start. A common cause for those with lower-back pain is the SI joints. The Serola Sacroiliac Belt helps stabilize those joints and the muscles surrounding them, allowing better circulation and normal functionality of the muscles – providing greater power and reduced pain during the golf swing.

“In our research we’ve found that one of the most common causes of golfers quitting the game is back pain,” said Dr. Rick Serola – President/Founder. “In fact nearly 40% of golfers are affected by back pain. That said, we believe we can do a tremendous amount of good for the game, by increasing enjoyment through reduced pain, which should result in aiding the golf industry in retaining more players.

For more information on all of Serola Biomechanics’ innovative products, which are proudly made in the U.S.A, visit www.serola.net .

I know a few of you have mentioned back issues. Take a serious look at this if your back aches now and then, please.

Thank you.

I am one of those.  I'll try it.  I fear that it's targeting an area (pelvic bone, it looks like) that differs from where my issues originate (lumbar spine) ... but maybe it's going to indirectly help anyway.

Certainly can't hurt!

Interesting. I don't really have back pain though. I'm probably not a good candidate to review this.

Same, here. I haven't had any back pain since I got rid of that S spine.

As someone who suffers from back pain on a weekly basis (from spending too much time in the car driving around each week), I would be interested.

I'm interested as I've suffered from lower back pain for years! Although I'm based in the UK. Does that disqualify me? Regards Mailman

My pain is due to nerve issues, but is directly in this area. I would be interested in trying this product.

I would review it, if you need more people. I guess I am in that camp.

Oddly, my back hasn't been hurting since I've changed my posture. My right hip is still out making one leg longer than the other, but I'm not experiencing pain.

I've also been changing my posture, by doing a couple exercises my PT prescribed, and also by always supporting my back while sitting. I can already see that my lower spine curve is going away, unfortunately, the pain still exists,especially after hitting balls... :-(

    • Day 17 - Indoors practice. Some small setup changes and then working on hands path.
    • Yeah, negative PCC days are more likely to be counted in the best 8, but the PCC decreases the downward impact of these scores, as it increases your posted differential.  As for the conditions, it really is funny how the scores posted don't always reflect what seem like tough conditions.   Its clear that you thrive in difficult conditions.  
    • I guess someone decided to do more work for little benefit then.  I might be the lucky one then. I have a +3 and a +1 on my counted scores. 
    • I've only seen one positive PCC since it began, a +3 during a tournament on a tough, firm course with the wind blowing at least 30 mph. A scratch golfer got so frustrated he pulled out after 9. Sadly, the +3 did nothing for me as I was a good 10-12 strokes above the score counting. Currently 3 of my last 7 scores have a negative PCC. Of course, all 3 of those are in my best eight. I'm puzzled, as the wind was blowing pretty good on at least two of those rounds.  
    • It changed to the best 8 of the last 20, in the 2020 changes.  When I attended a Handicapping Workshop in 2020, we were told that they anticipated that the PCC would apply in about 10% of the rounds.  That's about what I see now, maybe slightly more often since the algorithm was tweaked not long ago.  And remember, the PCC will adjust MOST of the scores on a given day towards the mean.  With a positive PCC (more high scores), most players scores wouldn't be in the best 8/20 even with the PCC, so the impact is nothing, although the few players who had a good day will see the impact on their HI increased.   I believe it will be very rare that a player has even two scores in their best 8 with any kind of PCC.
