Great care has been taken to ensure this support belt is comfortable for the user whilst securing your stoma and ostomy bag. It's constructed with flexible fabric with high air permeability and wicking properties so that it feels soft on the skin.

Will This Belt Restrict the Flow of My Stoma?
No. Although it prevents your stoma bag from moving about during activities, this belt won't restrict the flow or put unnecessary pressure on it to restrict flow.
