Compression Stockings for Varicose Veins

Compression works differently depending on the garment and where it is, but it utilises the same principle across the board. By applying a specific amount of pressure on the muscles, blood flow is increased, swelling is reduced and pain relieved. This also works to give the muscle more power by "activating" it, reducing excess muscle vibration and fatigue so each movement is more precise.

While fashion and big name brands often advertise compression and tights, if they're not medically-graded, they might feel nice, but won't be nearly as effective, especially long-term. Medical-grade compression is made to an international standard that's been extensively tested and proven to benefit the muscles and blood-flow in active movement during sports and exercise as well as day to day life.

Simply put, Bauerfeind has set the global standard for medical braces, compression and insoles. Using the highest quality materials to construct decades-refined products that have been clinically proven to address a vast range of issues. There's no substitute for quality, and Bauerfeind has that from the simplest strap to the largest brace.
