8.3 Applying Your Flexitouch Plus Vest Garment
Preparing Your Vest Garment for the First Time
1. Unfold your vest garment so the zipper is facing up. This is the
front of the vest garment. The collar tabs are located near the
neck of the garment. The pocket and round closure dials are
located on the abdomen (Figure 8.3.a.).
2. Attach the back straps to the back flap of the vest garment so it
is shaped like a vest.
3. Slide your arms through the arm holes of the vest garment as
you would a jacket (Figure 8.3.a.).
4. Align both sides of the front zipper at the bottom of the vest
garment and zip up the front of the garment to the collar opening.
5. To adjust the fit of the vest garment around the waist, place
your hands inside the pockets of the waist flaps and adjust the
placement of the hook fastener pads on each side of the waist
to achieve a snug fit (Figure 8.3.b.). To allow for easy garment
removal, do not pull the waist flaps across the zipper in the front
of the garment.
6. To tighten the vest garment around the waist, rotate the round
closure dials on the waist flaps of the garment (Figure 8.1.c.).

7. To loosen your vest garment around the waist, pull out on the
round closure dials located on both sides of the garment. Extend
the closure laces by pulling the back of the garment away from the
hook fastener pads on the front of the garment. Push the closure
dials in until you hear a “click” to secure them (Figure 8.3.d.).
8. Pull the vest collar tabs straight down and attach the hook
fastener pads to the chest of the vest garment (Figure 8.3.e.).
The collar tabs should not cross over the zipper. They are
designed to help the neck chamber of the garment maintain
good contact with your neck during treatment.
NOTE: The collar tabs do not need to be readjusted at the start of each
treatment session if you achieve a snug fit when initially contouring
the garment.
