Before You Purchase
Products are tools not a replacement for an individualized evaluation or treatment plan.
A product that works well for one person may not be appropriate for another. In particular, pelvic floor strengthening devices, internal pelvic tools, support belts, supplements, and pregnancy/postpartum products should be selected based on your individual symptoms and needs.
Ask your CoreX Physical Therapist if you are unsure which product is appropriate for you.
