A medical compression stocking is designed to exert decreasing pressure from the foot towards the hip as the legs move. The gentle pressure of the stockings promotes circulation in the legs. Compression stockings help prevent spider veins and varicose veins, as well as treat leg oedema.
They can also be useful and helpful in everyday life. People who have to stand or sit for longer periods (e.g. on long-haul flights) can benefit from the effects of compression stockings. Please feel free to visit our St. Johann Pharmacy without an appointment so that we can measure the correct stocking size for your legs. We look forward to helping your legs feel lighter with the right compression stockings!
