Undesirable side-effects

This device can cause skin reactions (redness, itching, irritations…). 

Position the belt around the waist, placing your hands in the finger loop and thumb loop located on the abdominal panels. The belt must be centred on the spine: the dorsal stays should be positioned on either side of the spine. The bottom of the belt must stop at the top of the crease between the buttocks. The Thuasne logo indicates which way up the belt should be put on. Pull the finger loop and the thumb loop on the abdominal panels simultaneously and evenly. Fasten the belt, right side over left side, adjusting to the desired compression. For an adapted compression, you can use the additional strap. Pull the finger loop and the thumb-loop on the additional strap simultaneously and evenly. Attach the self-fastening parts onto the centre of the belt. The level of compression can be adjusted as required throughout the day.
