Compression Stockings
What are compression stockings?
Compression stockings are specialized, snug-fitting socks or hosiery designed to improve blood circulation and reduce swelling in the legs. They work by applying graduated pressure, with the highest compression at the ankle and gradually decreasing up the leg, helping to prevent blood from pooling and promoting healthy circulation.
Commonly recommended for individuals with conditions like varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or chronic venous insufficiency, compression stockings can also benefit those who spend long periods sitting or standing, athletes, and pregnant individuals experiencing leg swelling.
At Axon Chiropractic and Rehab, we offer custom-fitted compression stockings tailored to your unique needs. Whether you’re managing a medical condition or looking to enhance your leg health, our team can guide you in finding the right fit and compression level to achieve optimal results.
