How compression stockings can help with circulatory problems
Nowadays, more and more people are experiencing dizziness and circulatory problems. Many therefore swear by compression stockings, which support the circulatory system and improve blood flow in the legs. But how exactly do these stockings work, and what are their benefits?
What are compression stockings good for?
Compression stockings are designed to apply pressure to the lower legs, thereby promoting blood flow and boosting your circulation.
They are mostly used for:
- Varicose veins (swollen and enlarged veins)
- Lymphedema (swelling of body tissue)
- circulatory problems
- Circulatory disorders

The benefits of compression stockings
There are many benefits to compression stockings, especially if you have circulatory problems. Poor circulation can be improved by the following factors:
- improve blood circulation in your legs
- To prevent blood congestion in the legs
- to support the veins
- reduce leg swelling
- reduce orthostatic hypotension, which leads to dizziness or unsteadiness when standing. Help prevent venous ulcers.
- Prevention of deep vein thrombosis in the legs
- relieve the pain caused by varicose veins
- Improvement of lymphatic drainage
Many athletes also swear by compression stockings because they reduce fatigue in the legs and protect tendons, joints and ligaments from injuries.
But now that you know the benefits of compression stockings , you might also want to know how all this can be achieved by wearing tight stockings. Their shape makes them more than just tight stockings, but precisely designed aids that strengthen your circulation and make your circulatory problems disappear. Compression stockings apply pressure to your legs and ankles, causing them to:
- reduce the diameter of the large veins by increasing the volume and speed of blood flow
- support blood flow upwards to the heart
- prevent blood from flowing back down into the foot or into the superficial veins
Non-medical compression stockings
Non-medical compression stockings are generally non-prescription. They are used as a remedy for tired and aching legs and to combat circulatory problems. They provide even compression and exert balanced pressure on the legs. At Heixa, we've made it our mission to reinvent old-fashioned compression stockings.
