    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.
    DeBra’s also focuses on helping women across Australia find the right bra after:
    • Short?term or long?term injury
    • Breast surgery
    • Ongoing pain and discomfort in the upper body

    Frront-opening and posture support bras

    DeBra’s also stocks posture support bras that can help relieve some of the pain associated with having a fuller bust. These bras:
    • Have fuller?coverage backs to smooth lumps and bumps
    • Provide excellent support through a broader back panel
    • Spread the weight of your bust over a larger area, reducing pressure on your shoulders
    The right bra can play a real role in improving posture, reducing strain and supporting your overall wellbeing.

    RECEIVE $20 OFF YOUR FIRST PURCHASE. SIMPLY USE THE CODE OSTEO20 (T&CS APPLY*).

    If you’d like to learn more about how the right bra can support your comfort or recovery, we recommend checking out DeBra’s tips and fitting advice, or chatting with your osteopath about which features might suit your body best.
