What is the difference to belly bands and pregnancy belt?

Compared to belly bands and pregnancy belts SRC Pregnancy compression garments were designed to treat multiple conditions during pregnancy, like Low Back Pain, Pelvic Girdle Pain (SIJ & SPD), Sciatic Nerve Pain, and Vulvar Varicosities.

Additionally, SRC Pregnancy Shorts and Leggings are more comfortable, which is why they are more likely to be worn for long periods, which increases their effectiveness.

• Most pregnancy belly bands do not move with your body and requiring constant adjustment.
• Belly wraps and pregnancy belts are not always comfortable or flattering especially when wearing them under or over fitted clothes.
• Postpartum belly wraps rely on your ‘judgement’ to get the right level of compression when tightening it. Doing it up too tight can lead to muscle deactivation or compromising blood circulation, negatively impacting your pelvic floor.
• Belly bands a should only be worn for short periods, while the SRC recovery garments can be worn for as long as they are comfortable.
• In most cases you would benefit from using both instead of seeing them mutually exclusive. If you have severe symptoms of Pelvic Girdle Pain you can wear the SRC Pregnancy Shorts or leggings all day and night, without causing muscle deactivation. During periods where you need to be on your feet for an extended time, you can combine both, by adding the pregnancy belly band over the top of the SRC Pregnancy compression garment for additional support.
