Everything You Need to Know about Getting the Right Bra Fit

That’s because ACCORDING TO CHIROPRACTER LORNA MILLS, there are FIVE MAJOR HEALTH PROBLEMS that are caused by ill-fitting bras

They are:

  • Rounding shoulders
  • Curves in the back
  • Indigestion due to internal organs being restricted
  • Dents on shoulders
  • Marks on the body due to straps and underwires

All five of the above are due, according to Lorna, to ill-fitting bras.  And many suffering women support that reasoning.  Other ailments that women have attributed to their poor bra choice include:

  • hiatus hernia
  • heartburn
  • irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
  • tension headaches
  • neck pain
  • tendonitis in shoulders or elbows
  • breast cancer, in rare cases, due to a tight fitting bra blocking blood flow

The biggest cause of all these items are often attributed to a bra that offers limited to no support in the proper areas.

The solution is easy – go to one of those fancy bra-fitting stores and get properly measured.  Your body – and doctor – will thank you.
