Advantages of compression therapy

Graduated compression tights are the most effective solution for the prevention of edema or swelling . They also relieve pain and heaviness and help prevent spider veins or varicose veins from forming. When using compression tights, the compression should be graduated, with the greatest pressure at the ankles and decreasing towards the thigh.

Clinical studies have shown that graduated compression tights are useful and should be a cornerstone of therapy for relieving the symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency during pregnancy and the postpartum period .1)

When a woman who wears compression tights during pregnancy discovers their benefits and comfort, she will likely continue to wear them for several more years to keep her legs healthy.

SIGVARIS solutions for pregnant women

Gradual compression is the most effective solution in preventing edema or swelling, and promotes better blood circulation. Wearing compression stockings during pregnancy prevents blood from pooling in the veins and reduces the increased heart rate in the mother and baby. In addition, compression stockings can reduce the risk of varicose veins, phlebitis and thrombosis. Compression therapy also relieves many symptoms such as swollen feet and ankles, or tired and aching legs.
