Swollen
calves, ankles and feet are common problems for people who spend lots
of time standing. Gravity causes fluid to gather in the bottom of the
legs which makes them appear puffy and inflamed and can make them achey
and sore.
If
you spend lots of time on your feet compression therapy can help. By
applying light pressure right around your lower leg you will prevent
fluid from collecting and causing the tissue to swell. It will also help
to support your muscles to reduce aches and pains, and it will
encourage circulation to keep the tissue healthy.
These
Comfort Support Stockings are made from a mix of nylon and spandex with
a honeycomb knit top. This makes them elasticated enough to give you
the support you need whilst being breathable and comfortable to wear for
long periods of time. The stirrup design means your toes won’t feel
restricted, and allows you to wear them with open-toe shoes.
Another
unqique feature of these stockings is the clever gel arch pads in the
sole. This gives your feet a little added support and comfort and
improves your posture, which is important when standing for long periods
of time.
These
stockings are perfect for people who do lots of standing or walking,
whether they are prone to swollen legs or they simply want to keep their
muscles and tissues healthy. They may even be useful to wear during
long haul flights to encourage healthy circulation help prevent deep
vein thrombosis.
