X-ray photographs.

In the above X-ray photographs, we show how a client's stomach has been elevated by means of a Barcley Supporting Corset.

Upon reading the letter from the laboratory where these X-rays were taken (see opposite page), it will be noted that the client's stomach has been elevated three inches by means of the support furnished by the corset.

In figure 1, the large dark mass is the client's stomach, its lower edge being 2½ inches below the top of the iliac crest (hip bone). In figure 2, its lower edge is ½ inch above the top of the hip bone.

It stands to reason that when any of the abdominal organs drop below their true positions, they cannot function as nature intended, resulting in headaches, constipation, backaches and many other ailments.
