You will find, on our information blank (one is enclosed with this book, or see duplicate questions on page 73) some simple, easily-answered questions concerning these points.

And your answers to these questions, if your answers are correct, furnish us all the guidance we need as to the special requirements of your case. Just as a physician in writing a prescription is guided by the answers to his simple questions.

That is how we determine the shape and size of the Automatic Holding Pad (in case of Double Rupture, each rupture is individually treated, usually a different kind of pad for each side, for both sides are seldom the same).

And that is how we determine the adjustment of the pads and all parts, the amount of support needed and the regulation of the holding pads to give the support, etc., etc.

Then, after deciding all these points, we make for you a special Cluthe Truss—one exactly adapted to your individual case—every part of it exactly what your condition requires. (Compare that with the way drug stores and local truss dealers try to fit you with a ready-made "stock" truss.)

We next take this specially made truss to our Gallery of Statues—which consists of life-size and life-like models or dummy figures.

Our Life-Like Models

And here, no matter what your size or build, we have a dummy model corresponding to your living self in shape—a form your clothes would fit just as they fit on you.

When we see the measurements you give when ordering (they are all provided for in a simple way on our Information or Question blank) we know at once which one of our many models or forms to use.

And on this form—duplicating your size and build—we fit your truss, as soon as it is made, just as if you yourself were right here in front of us.
