The benefits of Compression Therapy are plentiful and the reasons vary from person to person why you may choose to wear compression socks or stockings. As shown in the above chart, some of the most prevalent symptoms or conditions that benefit from compression therapy are:
Pregnancy related swelling and vein problems
Varicose or spider veins
Lymphedema or edema
Swelling, pain or blood clots in the lower legs, also known as DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis)
Poor circulation from sitting for long periods
Post-surgical and post-sclerotherapy treatment
It can even be used as a preventive measure to maintain healthy legs for someone who spends extensive amounts of time on their feet. Quite simply, when we stand still for long periods, the forces of gravity increase the pressure within the veins of the legs where the greater effects happen at the ankle and decreases gradually up the leg and body. This pressure depends on the vertical distance of the column of blood from the heart to the foot. That's why gradient compression stockings are designed with the pressure greatest at the ankle and diminishing as it moves up the leg in order to counter the effects of the higher venous pressures.
Compression therapy products are put on in the morning upon arising, which is typically before any significant swelling would occur, and then removed at night. Throughout the day the compression prevents blood from pooling in leg veins, which in turn helps your overall circulation and lessens or eliminates any leg swelling you may have.
When shopping for compression socks or stockings, it is best to measure earlier in the day before swelling builds in the legs. Measurements taken later in the day after swelling occurs may cause you to choose an item that is too large and then not effective.
There are many types of compression socks and stockings available without a prescription and they do offer wide-ranging benefits. Before wearing a compression therapy of 20 mmHg (Firm Compression) and above, it is generally recommended to consult your health care provider to find out if graduated compression stockings are right for you. If the answer is yes, they can tell you what pressure grade you should buy for maximum benefit and relief.
I love these knee high support stockings. Two of my doctors recommended this brand. I have tried other brands and been disappointed in quality and fit. I also like their thigh high stockings and I actually prefer them to pantyhose. More comfortable and get a lot more wear out of each pair.

I started wearing compression stockings 36 years ago. I started off with sigvaris but as they became more expensive I tried many other cheaper ones, so recently I started buying Sigvaris again as the less expensive ones do not last as long. They come in great colors and look good, and I order a couple more before they wear out. This way I always have some new ones ready to wear.!!!

I have been wearing Sigvaris Knee High stockings for a few years and have been very pleased with them.
I have suffered from varicose veins for many years and these stockings have really helped with the discomfort.
I replace the stockings every 6 months and have never had a problem ordering them or receiving them very quickly.

Sigvaris support stockings give support, keep swelling down in the heat of summer. The enclosed toe and heel support promote the 6 month wear period. Highly recommend them.
