It is stable, accurate and powerful, and is simple and convenient to use. It is the most promising pelvic recovery product in the international obstetrics and medical circles today. Belt type
The most common type on the market, ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan, mostly made of chemical fiber materials, with simple craftsmanship.

The butt lift style
is made of two ordinary elastic cloth strips. When using it, tie one at the back waist and the other at the base of the hind legs.
