BeMitt Founder
About Me:Hello, my name is Beth Bromberg and I am the creator and manufacturer of the BeMitt, Breast Self-Examination Aide. I believe when it was said that "necessity is the mother of invention", it was written for me! I personally have had two breast lumps removed (both benign); however, the real trigger of inspiration was when my middle daughter Jenna had a lump the size of a plum removed at the age of twenty. This was when I decided that all women need to become educated on the importance of breast self-exam and I created a unique tool that may be of some assistance.
Unique Qualities:
I started in business at an age when most are planning retirement, but this is more than a business, it’s a passion. I have degree in Kinesiology, and I am also certified by the National Consortium of Breast Centers as a breast self-exam trainer. Overall, I have been driven by the love of my family as well as the desire to share my knowledge and passion in an effort to educate and empower women to take control of their own health, specifically breast health.
The BeMitt is a unique tool designed to work as an extension of ones own fingers allowing the user to perform a "dry" breast self exam (no lotion, oil or soap and water) in the preferred "clinical" position. The BeMitt is made of non-toxic mineral oil enclosed in a non-latex urethane, and by nature of its design, the BeMitt reduces friction and enhances sense of touch. With it’s ease of use, women are encouraged to perform BSE every month, allowing her to get to know the feel of her own breast tissue making changes easier to detect. It is small, user friendly, and designed to provide women with the education, technique and resource necessary to perform a thorough BSE. The BeMitt has been FDA approved and is manufactured in the USA. One of the most enjoyable aspects of this business is that it is family owned and operated with all three of my children working on promoting breast health awareness.
Every woman can benefit from breast self-exam. Getting to know the feel of your own breasts is one of the most important things a woman can do for herself and the BeMitt has been created to help make breast self-exam a quick and simple procedure that can ultimately save your life. Early detection is key to surviving breast cancer, and every month should be "Breast Awareness Month". Be Smart, Be Sensible, Be Sure.... BeMitt!
