Compression therapy has a history dating back to ancient times, where it was used to heal wounds and inflammation. Essentially, it involves applying controlled pressure to your legs to support your veins, increase blood flow, and decrease swelling.

For optimal benefits, you should combine compression therapy with movement. When you move around, your calf muscles move and the compression helps to pump blood back to the heart, further reducing swelling.

It is ideal for individuals who must stand or sit for long periods of time, and has been known to work wonders for those with varicose veins. Compression socks can offer support to your Achilles and arches, or be useful for those who suffer from arthritis, muscular swelling, stress fractures, and more.
