If you have
received your corset from Progressive, it has been carefully
made to fit you. Should you need an adjustment come to
our office and we will adjust it while you wait.
Proper
Wearing
Your Practitioner
will give a wearing schedule specific to you, please be sure
to follow this. Aside from this, adopt a general
practice of wearing a t- shirt or other garment underneath
the brace - this will keep it cleaner and more comfortable
to wear. Each time you take your corset off, release
the buckles, opening the corset to its fullest extent.
When putting the corset on, position it so that the metal
stays in the back are parallel to your spine, and wear it as
low as you may without pressing on your thighs while
sitting. Snap or hook the fasteners from the bottom
up. Tighten the pull straps from the bottom up as
well, pulling the straps two at a time from bottom to top.
Care
Tears snags or
holes in the corset should be repaired as soon as they
appear, especially before the garment is washed. to
clean the corset, remove the stays in back, being aware of
how they came out. The stays must go back in the same way.
Hand wash the garment without bleach, and line dry at room
temperature. Do no use any sort of heat source on the
corset.
Note: It is helpful
to have two of the corset you are wearing, so you may wear
one while you wash the other.
