Compression therapy/stockings can be an effective method for managing some common symptoms we encounter. For our #tuesdaytangotip we discuss 4 situations where many of you might benefit from using compression.
1- Pregnancy - this phase of life can cause increased pressure on the veins, swelling, and pain in the lower limbs, all of which can be reduced using compression.
2- Generalized swelling in the limbs can be a problem for many and compression can be an effective method for managing this symptom in both the upper and lower extremities.
3- Athletes commonly use compression to reduce swelling after activity and increase circulation, which helps repair muscle, minimize soreness, and increase overall recovery.
4- Prevention is key, and compression can be an effective way to support the venous walls and prevent conditions such as spider veins, varicose veins, and deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
