Are you sitting down for this?

Prolonged sitting & compression.

Many individuals today lead busy lives that often involve long hours of travel or working in a seated position. While these activities are necessary for many jobs and lifestyles, they can also pose serious risks to our venous health. Prolonged periods of sitting can lead to decreased blood flow in the legs, which in turn can increase the risk of developing venous disorders and diseases such as varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic venous insufficiency.


Compression socks are specially designed garments that provide graduated pressure to the legs, helping to improve blood flow and circulation. By wearing compression socks during long hours of travel or seated work, individuals can reduce the risk of developing venous disorders and alleviate the symptoms associated with existing conditions. Compression socks work by applying pressure to the legs, helping to improve venous return and prevent blood from pooling in the lower extremities.


In addition to preventing venous disorders, compression socks can also help to reduce swelling, fatigue, and discomfort in the legs, making them an essential accessory for anyone who spends long hours sitting or traveling. These garments come in various styles, sizes, and compression levels, making it easy to find the perfect pair for your individual needs.


The Leduc Physio compression team can help you with a FREE fitting to ensure you get the best garment for your needs.

Compression garments may also be covered by your insurance policy, check what documents you need to submit your purchase.
