"The key intention is to promote better blood circulation in the legs."
- Dr. Botek, DPM
The Benefits:
- Boost circulation in the legs
 - Support veins and reduce pooling of blood in leg veins
 - Diminish leg swelling
 - Reduce orthostatic hypotension, alleviating lightheadedness or unsteadiness
 - Help prevent venous ulcers
 - Reduce the risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the legs
 - Alleviate pain caused by varicose veins
 - Reverse venous hypertension
 - Improve lymphatic drainage
 
The Science:
Compression socks apply gentle pressure to the legs and ankles, which may:
- Reduce the diameter of major veins, increasing blood flow volume and velocity
 - Promote blood flow upward toward the heart
 - Prevent blood from pooling in the foot or flowing into superficial veins
