What Are Compression Stockings?

Compression stockings are specialized garments designed to apply gentle, graduated pressure to your legs and feet. This helps improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and alleviate symptoms associated with poor circulation or prolonged standing and sitting.
Available in a range of styles, materials, and pressure levels, compression stockings are tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Whether you need mild support for daily activities or medical-grade compression for a specific condition, these stockings provide a non-invasive and effective way to promote vascular health.
