How do compression socks works?
It’s all in the science!
Compression socks use strategic and precise pressure on your body in order to adequately support your veins. This extra support allows your veins to function more effectively by decreasing the surface area inside your veins and pushing the surrounding walls together. This allows little valves located inside your veins to move closer together preventing back flow as the veins work against gravity to send blood back to your heart.
In this way, compression socks allow blood to flow more easily to your heart, leading to a plethora of benefits!
