Compression Garments:
Principles of Compression Therapy:
The concept of compression therapy lies on a simple and efficient mechanical principle: the application of an elastic garment around the leg.
- Graduated compression of the leg- strongest at the ankle decreasing up the leg
- Promotes venous return
- Decreases venous pressure
- Prevents venous stasis
- Reduces edema
- Relieves symptoms of heavy achy legs
Treatment with Compression Therapy:
- Prescribed by a physician or clinician to treat the symptoms of venous disease
- Prescribed during the healing phase after venous procedures for varicose and spider veins
- Prescribed to prevent venous issues for patients at high risk, women during pregnancy and someone traveling long distance
People who benefit from graduated Compression Therapy:
- stand or sit for long periods of time daily
- have been prescribed anticoagulants
- frequent or long distance travel
- are pregnant
- history of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
- swelling in their legs and feet
- have or history of varicose and/or spider veins
Contraindicated in people with:
- Severe arterial insufficiency, intermittent claudication, ischema

Healthy Leg Tips
- Avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time.
Circulation improves with physical activity, so GET UP! Take a short walk, climb stairs, or make an effort to move around the office and at home.
Prolonged sitting or standing may increase leg pain and swelling. - Avoid extended exposure to heat from sunbathing, hot baths, or the sauna.
Excessive heat causes veins to dilate and may induce swelling - Elevate your legs.
To boost your body’s natural circulation, elevate your legs throughout the day - Exercise.
To help improve circulation:
- Manage your weight.
Carrying excess weight often makes leg symptoms worse including swelling - Wear graduated compression socks and stockings.
