NOTE: If your treatment requires trunk garment, see Chapter 5,
Section 5.1.
9. Locate your arm-shoulder garment and undo the chest strap on
the front of the garment and slide it on like a jacket. Pull up on
the shoulder area so it is close to the neck and lies at along the
top of the shoulder (Figure 7.3.e.). Make sure your ngertips
remain fully enclosed at the end of the garment.

strap. Wrap it around the front of your body and secure it to the
outer chest ap (Figure 7.3.f.).

body and contour to the chest area. It may help to gently pull the
tubing down to secure the garment in place.

NOTE: Make any necessary adjustments after you lie down to ensure
a well-contoured t.
