AND HOW COMPRESSION CAN HELP

WHY YOU NEED COMPRESSION

Uncomfortable, Achy Legs

Leg discomfort is a common to people who must sit or stand for long periods of their day. Circulation can become somewhat sluggish in these situations, with gravity taking center stage in allowing blood to pool in your ankles and feet. The lack of adequate blood circulation can cause legs to ache, throb, or even experience an uncontrollable urge to move, most especially at night.

HOW WE CAN HELP

Relieve Symptoms of Leg Discomfort

True gradient compression, which is greatest at the ankle and gradually decreases as it moves up the stocking can help increase blood flow to the lower body. The increase in blood flow has the dual benefit of relieving aching, throbbing or restlessness, but also improved circulation will prevent further leg discomfort from occurring.
