Does anyone know if you can buy decompression belts in the north?
thank you for any responses.

Is this for back pain ? If it is you could try the medical supplies shops. There are a few in Girne and there’s some opposite the government hospital in Lefkosa. I don’t know about other areas.Take a photo of what you want if you don’t speak Turkish. You could also try pharmacies
. Or go to a doctor specialising I back pain and ask them

Thank you kibkommer.

Agree about taking a photo. If in doubt i.e language barrier, we go on a web, take a photo and then take to Medical shop. Its saved a lot of hassle in the past.

Thank you Sophie, fortunately the other half is Turkish so translations are not a problem! i know i can get these in the uk and have them sent over here
[thanks to our little star ozay!], but i was hoping they would be available here, for speeds sake. i've seen doctors, i've had physio, and the only alternative is surgery, which i am very reluctant to go down that route, but i keep reading about these belts; never know if what you read is genuine or not, but for the cost involved which isn't astronomical its worth a go. it would be interesting to find someone who has actually used one to see if they are beneficial.
