Do you need compression stockings?

If you have tired achy legs from standing all day or are having problems with leg pain or swelling, you may be a good candidate to benefit from a compression garment or medical compression stockings. Visit one of our skilled Podiatrists, Chiropodists, or Pedorthists today at DeNova Health in Hamilton to see if compression stockings are right for you.

How do compression stockings work?

Compression stockings are made of special elastic fabric. They are tightest at the ankle and less tight up the leg. Compression gently squeezes the leg muscle and vein walls. This helps move fluid up the leg and keep it from collecting in the ankle, improving blood flow and decreasing leg pain and leg swelling.

Compression stockings come in different styles: knee-high, thigh-high, or full length. They are available in more fashionable fabrics than in the past. They are also available in styles specifically for men and women looking for compression stockings for daily wear, work, travel, or circulation support.
