Why Compression Wear?
Discover the science behind compression therapy and how it can improve your health and quality of life.
Understanding Compression Therapy
Compression therapy works by applying controlled pressure to your limbs, most commonly the legs. This pressure helps improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and provide support to your veins.
Medical-grade compression garments are designed with graduated compression, meaning they're tightest at the ankle or wrist and gradually become less tight as they move up the limb. This design helps push blood back toward the heart, improving circulation and preventing blood from pooling in the extremities.
At Uniflo, we provide high-quality compression wear that delivers effective therapeutic benefits while ensuring comfort for daily wear.
Key Benefits of Compression Therapy
Improved Circulation
Compression garments help blood flow more efficiently through your veins back to your heart, reducing the risk of blood clots and improving overall circulation.
Reduced Swelling
The graduated pressure helps prevent fluid buildup in your tissues, reducing swelling (edema) in your legs, ankles, and feet, especially after long periods of standing or sitting.
Vein Support
Compression garments provide external support to your veins, helping them function more efficiently and reducing the strain on vein valves that can lead to varicose veins.
Faster Recovery
After surgery or injury, compression therapy can help reduce swelling, improve circulation, and speed up the healing process by ensuring proper blood flow to affected areas.
Pain Relief
By improving circulation and reducing swelling, compression garments can help alleviate pain and discomfort associated with various vascular and lymphatic conditions.
Improved Energy
With better circulation and less leg fatigue, many people report increased energy levels and reduced tiredness when wearing compression garments regularly.
