The Vanilla Blush Black Coresitwell Hernia Support Belt (26cm) is a terrific way to help ease the pain and discomfort caused by your patient's hernias.

Vanilla blush hernia belts will help smooth out any bulges, moderating pain, and bridging the comfort gap until surgery.
What's Included?
- 1 x Black Hernia Support Belt
Which Size Is the Right One?
Each of Vanilla Blush's support belts are fitted around users' abdomens. To find the perfect size, measure the circumference of the lower abdomen over the fullest part of the stomach and then choose the correct size range from the drop-down box at the top of the page. Our available sizes are as follows:
- Up to 80cm
- 85 - 90cm
- 95 - 115cm
- 115 - 135cm
- 135 - 148cm
- 148 - 175cm
Please measure around the abdomen as pictured, being sure to measure over any stomas (if any)
If someone falls on the boundary of the size ranges, sizing up should still provide necessary support.
Key Features and Benefits
- Wearing a hernia belt will help smooth out the appearance of any bulge, making it easier to have some discretion
- Comfortable fabric and design allow for the belt to mould to any bulges, stomas, or hernias without restricting any stoma output
- Soft lining keeps sweating and irritation to a minimum
- Prevents overexertion, and helps get people with hernia's moving again
- Extra-tall belt covers more of your abdomen, providing more support coverage
Comfortable and Supportive
The Coresitwell Hernia Support Belt is wider than most alternatives. Sitting at 26cm tall, this provides a higher degree of comfort and support over more of your abdomen. This will help smooth out any hernia you may have, and help you move around more freely without discomfort.
Adjustable and Inconspicuous
Despite its width, every Vanilla Blush Hernia Support Belt conceals quite nicely under regular clothing. Most hernia belts can be seen quite easily because of their hefty Velcro straps, but Vanilla Blush's supports are adjustable and low-profile, allowing for greater discretion.
How Can My Patients Best Use the Beige Hernia Support Belt?
Putting on a Vanilla Blush Hernia Belt can be done in three ways:
- By inserting your hand into the glove, holding the other end of the belt around your waist, and pushing the Velcro padding shut
- Fastening the Velcro, stepping into the belt – pulling it up, and adjusting for more or less support
- If you already have an established hernia: lie on your back, push your hernia inward to get better support, and fasten the Velcro
Regardless of which way your users put it on, you should advise them to be sure to keep the Velcro section away from any stomas to allow it to keep functioning. If their stoma bag needs emptying, simply pull up the belt and allow the appliance to release to be drained, or reapply the belt entirely.
Who Are Vanilla Blush?
Vanilla Blush was founded by former high-end fashion consultant and NHS Intensive Care Nurse Nicola Dame in 2008. Her company was founded after she began to suffer from ulcerative colitis in her twenties, and she found that there were not many options for fashionable underwear for ostomates. She's made it her mission to provide supportive, stylish, comfortable, and discreet ostomy underwear for anyone who needs it at an affordable price.
