Bell-Horn Abdominal Support, Large/X-Large 46" - 62" Waist is manufactured by DJO, LLC, a manufacturer of various healthcare products for consumers. There are a number of reasons why people need to wear a support brace for their back. One reason could be due to a surgical procedure, another reason could be for repetitive movement, and another reason could be due to stress, pain or pressure in those areas. Those who suffer from hernias also use abdominal and back braces to help alleviate pain and pressure. The abdominal braces can also be used to help you get that flat stomach you have always wanted. The brace fits snuggly and perfectly, but not too tight, around your abdominal or stomach tucking in unsightly fat and bulges. It fits firmly around the waist or abdominal area to give you a perfect look or fit. It goes on easy and comes off without any problem. It works similar to a wrap or girdle where it holds the muscle firmly in place to reduce excess movement that can result in pain, tuck in the bulge, or reduce stress from repetitive movement. It also helps to reduce your stomach size while exercising by causing the waist and stomach area to sweat and shrink in size. It is not bulky. It can be worn over underwear and under tops and shirts. Most people wear it discreetly while they are out and about. It snaps in place and can be easily removed. It does allow freedom in movement so it is not too tight and uncomfortable. The wrap or binder is made out of foam so it provides a soft cushion and allows the area to breathe. Comfortable Fits firm Stays in place
