Are you getting the lift and support from your bra?

Many women want two things in a bra—lift and support. A good bra will give you both without compromising comfort. Many women think that underwire bras give support—not true. Underwires can actually constrict the circulation of the breast tissue. Plus, how many women reading this have actually suffered from underwires escaping their casing? Ever had that funny sticking sensation in your breast only to find out that it’s a rogue underwire?

To get the proper support from a bra, make sure that you get fitted first. You might think you’re a 36C and realize that you are actually a 34D, once you’ve been measured and fitted. Then make sure that the design of the bra gives proper support to the underneath of the breasts, which is the most tender part, and carries the weight of the breast. Getting the proper support underneath the breasts can alleviate the shoulder and neck pain many women experience with an ill-fitting and ill-supporting bra.
