What are Compression Socks?
Essentially, compression socks and compression stockings are clinically proven, snug-fitting socks designed to gently put a specific level of pressure on your legs. This pressure improves circulation, which allows you to feel more energized while minimizing the chance of varicose veins, blood clots, inflammation, swelling, and general discomfort. We mean it when we say these are Socks with Benefits.
What do compression socks do?
So what does all this mean? You'll get healthier circulation - all from changing your socks. Healthy blood flow throughout our bodies is essential to survival and well-being. The gentle pressure from compression simply helps your blood vessels work better. The arteries taking oxygen-rich blood to your muscles are able to relax, allowing blood to flow freely. The veins get an extra boost, pushing blood back to your heart.
The Daily Challenges Your Legs Face
Whether you sit for hours, stand or often walk long distances, the effects on your legs are often the same. Recognize:
Prolonged sitting or standing can cause fluid to build up in your legs, feet and ankles, leaving you feeling heavy and swollen.
After a busy day, your legs often feel tired and sore. This is not only uncomfortable, but can also affect your energy for the next day.
Many people find that varicose veins not only affect the appearance of their legs, but also cause additional discomfort.
Sitting or standing for too long can decrease blood circulation, causing a tingling or cold feeling in the legs and feet.
Prolonged strain can cause the muscles in your legs to cramp and become stiff, making it harder for you to move.
After a day of intense use, your muscles need extra time to recover. As a result, you may feel a little heavier the next day.
