Freeman Women's Lumbosacral Girdle
Please note: this item is being discontinued, as stock runs out your size may become unavailable.
For those suffering from back pain, a lumbosacral girdle may play an important part of the rehabilitation process for many women. A girdle is generally worn underneath clothing to enhance a person's figure. The women's lumbosacral girdle serves a duel purpose. It allows women to conceal problem areas like the midriff and abdominal area. At the same time, the girdle provides support to the lumbar area of the spine. The lumbar region is more commonly known as the lower back, which is commonly associated with pain. A girdle made to support this part of the body can also be used to support better posture. Poor posture can often exacerbate existing back pain, making conditions worse. A lumbosacral girdle may also be used to alleviate pain associated with pain from repeated actions like bending or lifting.
The lumbar girdle is a flexible garment that is designed to be stepped into. It then pulls up over the hips and thighs until firmly fitting over the abdomen and lower back. The girdle should be pulled up as high as it can go without causing discomfort. If a zipper is equipped, it should be zipped for added support after the girdle is pulled all the way up. When the lumbosacral girdle is fitted appropriately, it should feel tight and snug. By design, the girdle must restrict movement and inhibit the individual from doing further damage. However, it should never cut off circulation or inhibit air supply. These are signs that the girdle is too tight. A lumbosacral girdle is simply designed to provide optimal support to the lumbar region. There are a few variations in design of the girdle.
Long Leg Lumbosacral Girdle:
A long leg lumbar girdle is stepped into like a pair of pants. The legs extend further down, and cut off just above the knee. Doing the job of a girdle, it provides extra support to the thighs just like it does to the abdomen and midriff.
Lumbosacral girdles for women are usually sold according to hip size. To find the measurement of your hips, wrap a tape measure around the widest point of your hips and posterior. You should begin with one hip and wrap the tape around the other hip until you are back where you started. The women's lumbosacral girdle should be purchased by women seeking support that will not only relieve pain in the lower back, but enhance their body shape.

Sad to see it go. Wonderful Girdle
This is really an amazing girdle. I have owned this style and the open bottom style and both of them do an amazing job of controlling/ compressing the abdomen and hips while providing much needed back support. Wearing either girdle gives me the support that I need to get through the day and provides a nice smooth line under clothing. I have tried a number of medical grade compression garments and while they do help hold things in they do little for supporting the back or relieving pain. The thicker material of this garment provides for for a durable garment that will last much longer than others. Unfortunately this item as well as the open bottom style has been discontinued and is no longer available in my size. I hope that by writing this review someone at freeman might look into offering both styles again in the future.

FREEMAN WOMEN'S LUMBOSACRAL GIRDLE REALLY GREAT GIRDLE
This is really a great girdle. I have always had lower back pains and low energy, and I never wore a girdle. I decided to see what would happen. I did some research and I found this girdle. Once I put the girdle on I was completlly amazed I could keep my stomach muscles comletly relaxed and the girdle supported both my stomach and back no more lower back pains and I found I had much more energy. Over a period of a few weeks of daily waking up cleaning up and putting on a this girdle you get to a point where you can not go with out the needed control and support a girdle offers you. It is truly amazing how great you feel when in a girdle. You what you experience is much more energy and self confidence. Your clothes fit 100 percent better, your posture is 100 percent improved. I now own 3 girdles. After this experience I just can not understand why women today would not want to be daily in a decent girdle like this everyday.
