How Does Compression Hosiery Work?
Compression hosiery is designed to exert the greatest amount of pressure at the ankle and gradually decrease in pressure towards the top of the stocking. This reverse gradient creates a force that pushes blood back towards the heart, against the forces of gravity.
Is Compression Therapy Right For Everyone?
Compression therapy is not right for everyone. If you have arterial deficiencies, congestive heart failure, ischemia or other serious medical conditions, you should only wear compression hosiery after being evaluated by your physician and only under their close supervision.
