Schroth Belts and Bags
Bean bags, belts, and traction straps can be purchased via Happy Sew. Use discount code ClayClinic4U at checkout!
You will be fitted for the correct sized bags and belt at your session. Only order the size and shapes instructed. If you are directed to order a belt the number will be larger than your actual hip measurements to allow for overlap for the velcro. Ordering your exact hip size will be too small.
Bags come in vinyl or cotton (the weight doesn't matter). Vinyl is better for cleaning. Cotton allows dual use for heat therapy by warming your bags up in the microwave! We use rice filled bags at our clinic.
