SRC Recovery Garments provide you with increased stability and allow you to move more freely post-delivery, making lifting, feeding, bathing, and caring for your baby much easier.
With no adjustable buttons, velcro or zips, the Recovery Garments are like a second skin. There’s no need to constantly adjust while you’re wearing them. Recommended by health care professionals for improving mobility and pelvic muscle function postpartum, these garments have become a must-have inclusion in hospital bags of women the world over.
Patented Anatomical Support Panels (ASP) in the SRC Recovery Garments deliver targeted compression, ideal for treating multiple conditions like c-section wounds, perineal trauma and episiotomy wounds, abdominal muscle separation, and lower back pain.
They provide support to the pelvic area through gentle yet constant compression, activating muscles and encouraging core stability, reducing swelling and muscle fatigue.
The ASP delivers True Cross Compression (TCC) as each layer within the panel is cut on a different plane so that no compression is lost at any time during the activity.
The research and development of our fabric was extensive as we wanted to ensure that it provided support and comfort with no feeling of restriction. Our uniquely milled fabric goes through rigorous independent testing to ensure that it is of the highest quality and can stretch and return to its original shape consistently after wash and wear to provide you with optimal performance and a longer-lasting garment.
To make sure we deliver this, we decided to test our fabric against one of the leading compression brands in the marketplace to assess whether the compression properties were sustained after multiple washes and how this compared to the other brand.
We subjected the fabric to 100 wash cycles followed by an extension test. Our fabric not only retained its original size and shape (against the competitor which shrunk significantly) but also retained the same high level of compression at the conclusion of testing.
The SRC Recovery Garment’s flatlock seams increase comfort during exercise and prevent chafing and wound aggravation.

This is a question we get asked a lot by women wondering which length will be the best fit for their needs. Each length has different features and benefits and, ultimately, it comes down to personal preference for each customer in what they will get the most wear from:
Choosing the right compression garment is essential for optimal postpartum recovery. SRC Health offers 2 types of recovery garment options:
These garments have all of the features and benefits of the SRC Recovery Shorts with a few additions, specifically to make them even more suitable and comfortable for C-section births. Naturally, they can also be worn for vaginal births.
Currently, there is only one C-section-specific compression garment available: Regular Shorts.

To ensure a comfortable fit, it’s important to get the right measurement for your compression garment. As they are medical garments, they may not always correlate to general/fashion clothing sizes. General fashion sizes also vary drastically by country and by brand so we strongly recommend you have a trusted friend or loved one take your measurements and use this guide to size yourself up.
We also have a video for you to reference in terms of measuring yourself correctly. We recommend you measure from 36 weeks for SRC Recovery Shorts and Leggings.
Specially designed by women for women, our postpartum compression garments are crafted to provide support and flexibility for recovering mums without any feeling of restriction. Using smooth, breathable, anti-chafing fabrics, they are designed for prolonged wear without causing irritation, ensuring comfort throughout the day.
Both the shell and the lining of our SRC Recovery garments are also made of 80% polyamide and 20% elastane. With uniquely milled, high-quality fabrics, you can rest assured that they maintain their elasticity and shape even after multiple wears and washes. With this True Cross Compression Technology, each layer of fabric is cut differently, providing consistent and reliable compression during any activity so you never lose the support you need during recovery.
You should not wear SRC Recovery Garments during pregnancy. In fact, you should not even attempt to try them on. SRC Recovery Garments are designed to be worn postpartum, after delivery. On the other hand, SRC Pregnancy Garments are designed to be worn during pregnancy to assist with common pregnancy conditions.
Why should you buy an SRC Postpartum Recovery Garment instead of a postpartum belly band?
SRC Recovery Compression Garments were designed to treat multiple conditions during the postpartum period; abdominal muscle separation, perineal tears and stitches, C-section wounds, sciatica, and low back pain.
Postpartum belly bands simply do not treat all these conditions.
SRC Postpartum Garments are more comfortable to wear than any belly wrap after pregnancy. Because of this, they are more likely to be worn for long periods which increases their effectiveness.
With SRC Recovery Garments, there’s no risk of deactivating your muscles. On the other hand, postpartum belly wraps pose a risk of deactivating your muscles in various ways:
Yes, absolutely!
You should wear your SRC Recovery Garments for as many hours as they feel comfortable. They can be worn both day and night.
With postnatal recovery garments, when you are between sizes, we recommend that you select the size down to achieve the optimal fit due to the likely rapid loss of fluid post-birth.
You can start wearing recovery garments as soon as you feel comfortable having gentle compression post-delivery. For best results and to help reduce swelling and discomfort early on, our research indicates to start wearing them within the first two days post-delivery. It really depends on how you feel and the advice of your healthcare practitioner. Most women put them on around the 36-48 hour mark post delivery, in the case of C-section, maybe a little longer, as any straining is contraindicated.
You will most likely need some assistance putting them on the first few times. Most midwives and hospital physios know our product and should be able to assist you.
If at any stage you feel pain, please take them off. The breathable lining and fabric will not impede healing in any way. In case of a C-section, and if your wound is infected, you can wear the product during the day and remove it during the night to allow additional airflow to the wound until it is fully healed.
You should wear your SRC Recovery Garments for as many hours as you feel comfortable. Your garment can be worn both day and night.
Your SRC Recovery Garments have been designed for use in the first 8-10 weeks after delivery but can and should be worn for as long as they provide benefit. You can also continue wearing them beyond this period to provide support during exercise or simply for aesthetic reasons under fitting clothing.
We have many women ask us this same question. We recommend an individualised Clinical Pilates program designed specifically to your needs by your Women’s Health Physiotherapist and combining that with wearing SRC Recovery Garment day and night for a period of up to 4 months or greater. This has provided significant benefits to many women with this issue.
Yes, it is generally safe to wear compression garments for postpartum recovery every day, provided they are comfortable and not too tight. Ensure they are of the correct size to avoid restricting blood flow or causing discomfort. Listen to your body and take breaks from them if needed.
With the support and comfort they provide during the postpartum period, many mums find postpartum recovery garments worth the investment. These garments are not simply clothing—they are essential aids in the physical recovery process as well as posture enhancement and can help make daily activities more manageable.

Comfortable and supportive.. highly recommend
I had no idea that compression shorts or underwear were a thing for faster healing post c-section (especially since they had to cut through my lower abs (ouch) and I mainly bought the set for vanity reasons initially. On the picture you can see me 4/12/19 days postpartum respectively, so it definitely helped in shaping my postpartum belly. The shorts were initially a bit uncomfortable to put on / off on day 4 as I was still swollen and had to work around my scar. But it got easier and then a breeze. I can definitely feel the difference on laundry days when I am not wearing the shorts that my muscles are not as well supported when I’m moving.
I loved the ice packs on day 3/4 when my breasts were engorged and am looking forward to using the silicone strips as well.
Would 10/10 buy again for c- section recovery and recommend to anyone for the same purpose, I live in mine!
Love it! At first, it was difficult to wear because it was too tight. But it worked well because it helped to tighten my loose belly after giving birth. I started wearing it a few days after leaving the hospital to allow me to move around freely at home. After wearing it for a few weeks, my belly has tightened by 80%, and I am gonna buy a smaller size to consolidate it.
Thank you so much for your Recover Hero review of our product. We are so happy that our product has helped speed up your recovery postpartum. All the best!
Hugely impressed with my SRC recovery pack.. the shorts have been brilliant for getting back to training both on their own or as an undergarment for other clothing. The c-section recovery tape has significantly improved my c-section scar and by extension alleviated my c-section shelf almost completely!
These recovery shorts have expedited my recovery from my c-section.
