Compression socks
Compression socks are recommended for:
- Boosting circulation in the legs
- Decreasing swelling in the legs and ankles
- Improving lymphatic drainage
- Managing orthostatic hypotension, or low blood pressure when standing up after sitting down for a while
They also provide the following benefits:
- Energize your legs: Improving blood flow contributes to numerous benefits throughout your body. Compression socks help circulate more efficiently, increasing energy levels throughout the day.
- Reduce swelling and fluid retention: Improved circulation decreases swelling and fluid retention.
- Alleviate achenes and heaviness: Increased circulation reduces the feeling of heavy and achy legs. Compression socks provide a comfortable solution to get you moving again, while also providing a pleasant sensation of a gentle hug on your legs.
- Support muscle recovery: Compression socks enhance circulation, which can help reduce muscle fatigue.
- Improved circulation for those who sit or stand all day: Extended periods of sitting or standing can cause blood to pool in your legs and ankles. Compression socks improve circulation, combating this issue.
