    About 3 years ago I started to get a small belly with lower back pains that was effecting both my posture and fitting in my clothes. I decided to locate a corsetier for a fitting and some consulting. The best thing I have ever done. The corsetier fit me in a long legged high waisted boned and zippered panty girdle. She had to teach me how to put on the girdle, and how to keep my stomach muscles relaxed and to develop a positive daily habit of putting on a girdle. I found over a few days once I became use to the benefits of being girdled daily it was great, no more belly a nice firm flat well supported stomach, which now I have great posture, and no more lower back pains, I a dramatic increase in energy and confidence. I am amazed as to the positive effect a girdle has.
