Compression: how does it work?

Graduated compression, stronger at the ankle and decreasing towards the calf, promotes better blood circulation and helps prevent various discomforts. It allows you to:

  • Relieving heavy legs
  • Improve venous return
  • Reduce fatigue
  • Facilitate recovery
  • Reduce water retention
