Compression Stockings: Providing Scientific Support for Leg Health

Compression socks have become increasingly popular in recent years. They are medical-grade or health-care apparel that promotes blood

circulation in the legs through a progressive compression design (pressure gradually decreasing from the ankle upwards). They are not only a boon for people who stand or sit for long periods, but also an aid for specific health issues.

Those who need to stand or sit for long periods: such as nurses, teachers, counter staff, and office workers. Compression socks can prevent leg soreness and swelling.

Patients with venous insufficiency or varicose veins: Helps relieve symptoms such as leg heaviness, pain, and bulging veins.

Pregnant women: In the mid-to-late stages of pregnancy, the uterus compresses pelvic veins, easily leading to lower limb edema and varicose veins.

Long-distance travelers: Prevents "economy class syndrome" (risk of deep vein thrombosis).

Sports enthusiasts: Some sports compression stockings can improve muscle support, reduce vibration, and accelerate recovery.

There are different materials to choose from:

Nylon + Spandex: The most common, combining breathability, abrasion resistance, and high elasticity.

Bamboo + Spandex: Skin-friendly and comfortable, suitable for those with sensitive skin, but the pressure value may be lower.

We can also custom socks with some special materials like wool, which is suitable for winter.

Pressure is highest at the ankle, decreasing towards the calf and thigh, mimicking the muscle pump effect. Seamless weave or flat seam design reduces friction and discomfort.
