shanying418 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 I probably have one of the most simplest question... What exactly is an abdominal binder? By this I mean is the abdominal binder for "Back Support" the same as the one that doesn't mention "Back support" on the package? What about "body shaper" When doctors mention about abdominal binder, which kind are they talking about? I got this handout that mentions "Use abdominal binder or 'body shaper' ." Yet, I'm not sure what that is....PS. Google picture gave me all these different options, if someone can message me with a correct one that'll be greatly helpful.TKS everyone.

skiberthoud Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 If you go to any Durable Medical Equipment company or pharmacy (one that sells DME) then you will be able to find one. They are not the same as the back support and they are a different material than a body shaper. Invacare is just an example of one company that makes them. They run about $20-30...fyi.

POTSdad Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 My daughter tried several abdominal binders, and one she found finds most comfortable is made by Gabrialla. You could read the reviews on Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
