Compression stockings, socks and tights are intended to apply pressure against the legs and help blood circulate to the heart. They are worn first thing in the morning and taken off right before bed time.
Used in compression therapy, these specialized medical products treat a wide range of leg problems from aching feet/legs to varicose veins. They do not eliminate the problem, but compression stockings do provide temporary relief from the aches and pain associated with venous reflux and vein diseases.
Many people can benefit from compression therapy. From those who are on their feet all day to people who sit all day and especially those with vein diseases. Since compression therapy helps with pumping blood throughout the leg and body, these medical stockings aid in decreasing swelling, tiredness, aching and numb legs.
Compression stockings, socks and tights come in a wide variety of compression, sizes, colors as well as material. At Pro Therapy Supplies, we carry styles from casual knee highs to full maternity stockings.
