When you’ve had an injury or are recovering from breast surgery, it’s common to experience limited movement and mobility. Working with an osteopath is an important first step to improving movement and reducing pain, but it’s often just one part of a longer?term recovery plan.
An ill?fitting bra can contribute to neck, back and shoulder pain, as well as postural issues. You may also feel discomfort or strain in your upper body simply because of a larger bust. While an osteopath can prescribe exercises to help relieve pain in your shoulders, back or neck, the right bra can make a huge difference by supporting you in all the right places.
Our partnership with DeBra’s
At Ascot Vale Osteopathy, we’re always looking for ways to improve your comfort and wellbeing, not just during treatment but in your everyday life. That’s why we’re excited to announce a new partnership with specialised lingerie company DeBra’s.
With over 21 years of experience, DeBra’s is a trusted authority on bras, lingerie, shapewear and swimwear for fuller?busted women (sizes 6–36, A–K cup). Their goal is to provide women with correctly fitted bras that are beautiful, comfortable and supportive—no matter your shape or size.

Short?term or long?term injury
Breast surgery

Have fuller?coverage backs to smooth lumps and bumps
Provide excellent support through a broader back panel
