Why are we still wearing wired bras!? In Korean culture, most women don’t wear wired bras as it’s so bad breast area and very critical lymph nodes in that region. So I looked further into this and researched - do you ever question why and when wired bras were invented. It was invented in 1893, when most women were still wearing corsets made of whalebone or metal! There was zero consideration for women’s health and what it does to her lymphatic system. The wire sits directly under the breast and around the sides, areas dense with lymph nodes. Tight underwires can impede lymph drainage, this is one reason many Asian wellness traditions recommend wire-free bras for breast health. Ditch it all together or wear for few hours at most and do your breast massage, armpit massage etc daily! breasthealth
