THE BENEFITS OF EVERYDAY COMPRESSION

Compression stockings and garments are essential products for stimulating blood circulation and the venous system. They reduce discomfort in the legs and are ideal for problems related to blood circulation:

• Varicose veins;
• Swollen ankles (edema);
• A feeling of heavy legs (edema).

Compression therapy

Graduated compression applies a measured amount of compression to the legs. The pressure is at the maximum at the ankle and gradually decreases as it goes up towards the thigh. Thus, blood circulates better to the heart and is expelled through arteries and veins more efficiently. Both comfortable and aesthetic, compression stockings and clothing can accompany you on a daily basis. Available with or without a medical prescription *, they promote better circulation:

• Medical care: for the prevention or treatment of the consequences of poor blood circulation
• Pregnancy: for the prevention or relief of heaviness and the prevention of the appearance of varicose veins caused by pregnancy
• Daily: for long trips by plane or car or long periods of work in the same position

*NOTE: compression stockings are medical stockings. They have been carefully selected for your condition. The compression class of the stockings has been determined by a certified fitter or your attending physician.
