Gentle, Even Compression with the Vulkan Abdominal Binder
The Vulkan Abdominal Binder has a tri-panel contoured shape that gives even compression around the waist. Vulkan made it as an aid in post-operative or post-natal recovery, and it's also used for postural hypotension due to spinal cord injury. It wraps around your waist and fastens at the front, in five sizes from 56cm to 122cm.

Is it the right abdominal binder for you?
- A good fit: even, wraparound support around the middle after surgery or after having a baby, or for postural hypotension due to spinal cord injury.
- Check with your surgeon, midwife or doctor first: when you can start wearing a binder and how firm it should feel.
- Good to know: it's made with rubber, so email us before ordering if you have a rubber or latex allergy.
If you're unsure whether this support is right for you, we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider or physiotherapist.
