Compression Stockings
SIGVARIS Compression Stockings
Graduated compression therapy is used to prevent and treat varicose veins while promoting optimal leg health. Many people experience aching and swelling of the legs due to poor circulation. By compressing the veins within the limb, we can stimulate faster blood flow and better the circulation. This prevents pooling and swelling in the lower limbs and optimizes the function of venous valves. At AegisMD, we offer a variety of Sigvaris Compression Socks to suit the needs of your personal look and lifestyle. Graduated compression stockings are different from over the counter compression stockings and can only be obtained with a prescription.
