Frequently asked questions
What support configurations are offered?
The Core Products line offers three distinct support configurations designed for effective compression and stabilization:
- Elastic Sacral Support with Pad: This comprehensive support features a 6-inch high back and includes a removable sacral pad (4.5” x 5.5”) that allows you to customize the level of targeted compression.
- Specialized Rib Belts: These are designed specifically for rib cage support and are available in two anatomically tailored designs:
- Male Rib Belt
- Female Rib Belt
All supports are finished with CorEdge, a specialized material technology that provides 10% more stretch compared to standard elastic, ensuring a better fit and increased comfort.
What is the available size range?
The available sizing depends on the specific support type you select, either the Elastic Sacroiliac Support or the specialized Male/Female Rib Belts. All belts are designed with the CorEdge Finish, providing 10% more stretch for a flexible and comfortable fit.

Here is the detailed sizing for the Sacral Supports:
| Size | Waist/Hip Circumference |
|---|---|
| Small | 28” – 32” |
| Medium | 33” – 37” |
| Large | 38” – 42” |
| X-Large | 43” – 47” |
| 2X-Large | 48” – 52” |
| 3X-Large | 53” – 57” |
Does the belt offer 10% more stretch?
Yes, these supports feature the proprietary CorEdge Finish, which significantly enhances flexibility.
This technology provides 10% more stretch compared to standard elastic materials. This increased elasticity ensures a better, more adaptive fit, maximizing comfort and allowing for greater freedom of movement while maintaining optimal compression and support.
What is the back support height?
The Elastic Sacroiliac Support features a substantial 6-inch (15 cm) high back. This design is intended to provide broad coverage and substantive support, particularly around the sacroiliac joint.
Do these supports feature adjustable compression?
Yes, these supports, particularly the Elastic Sacroiliac Support variant, are designed to provide adjustable and targeted compression.
The main mechanism for customizing pressure is the removable sacral pad:
- It allows users to apply specific, concentrated pressure to the sacroiliac area, or remove it entirely for general support.
- The sacral pad measures 4.5 inches x 5.5 inches (11 cm x 14 cm).
This functionality works in conjunction with the highly flexible fit provided by the elastic material, which features the proprietary CorEdge Finish for 10% more stretch.
Does the CorEdge Finish enhance product flexibility?
Yes, the innovative CorEdge Finish is specifically designed to enhance fit and comfort. This material technology provides 10% more stretch compared to standard elastic materials, resulting in improved flexibility and better overall compression dynamics when wearing the support.
Are the rib belts gender-specific?
Yes, the Core Products Rib Belts are specifically designed in gendered configurations to provide an accurate and comfortable fit for different body types.
These configurations include:
- Male Rib Belts (6-inch height)
- Female Rib Belts (6-inch height)
Note that the Elastic Sacroiliac Support model offered in this product line is semi-universal and available in comprehensive non-gendered sizing.
What are the sacral pad and pocket dimensions?
The dimensions of the removable sacral pad and the integrated back pocket are specific to the Elastic Sacroiliac Support variant, which uses them to provide targeted and adjustable compression.
| Component | Dimensions (Inches) | Dimensions (Centimeters) |
|---|---|---|
| Removable Sacral Pad | 4.5” x 5.5” | 11 cm x 14 cm |
| Integrated Back Pocket | 5.5” x 5” | 14 cm x 13 cm |
Does the CorEdge Finish provide enhanced stretch?
Yes, the material features the proprietary CorEdge Finish, which is engineered for superior fit and compression. This finish provides 10% more stretch compared to standard elastic materials, resulting in:
- A more adaptive and conforming fit.
- Enhanced comfort and flexibility while maintaining secure compression.
