Compression Stockings- gently healing pressure
The principle is simple: Oxygenated blood is transported to the legs.  De-oxygenated blood is then transported back up the legs to the heart. This transportation of blood requires pumps that are powered by the muscles and joints, with the veins functioning as pipes.
If the veins become enlarged, the flow of blood becomes inefficient.  Compression therapy constricts the pipes to restore adequate blood transport, thereby revitalizing the legs.
Medical compression stockings are the single most important factor in treating venous disorders. The aim of treatment is to maintain a high quality way of life despite an insufficient venous system. Moreover, compression has the clear advantage in that it does not cause adverse reactions.
Consistent compression from an early stage guarantees health and well being
Compression restores the equilibrium between the supply and drainage of tissues. In arterial constriction, which disturbs tissue supply, the peripheral arterial pressure is so low that the tissues are starved; they may be literally "starved to death". In extreme venous distension, (drainage disturbances), the pressure in the drain becomes so high that the tissues drown in the mire.
In venous disorders and lymphatic edema, compression therapy and life long follow-up treatment is absolutely essential. However, medical compression stockings are desirable and sensible in cases of situational venous system abuse, for instance:
    *  for people who have to sit or stand for long periods
    * if the temperature is too high, for example in overheated rooms or prolonged exposure to the sun
   * if the ability or the opportunity to move sufficiently is lacking as example during pregnancy or long airline flights.
Prevention is the best protection
What is promoted in sporting, i.e. protective clothing, should not be refused in everyday life. In cases where the veins are endangered, preventative measures may avert possible damage. If the veins are subjected to more abuse than they can tolerate, compression stockings offer the most useful form of support.
Consistent use of support stockings and medical compression stockings provide the best protection against the onset and progression of these symptoms.
The best compression stockings do not restrict natural mobility
Along with ensuring good health and well being, a good medical compression stocking makes it a pleasure to move again.
Elasticity and compression are the basic requirements for all modern compression knitted fabrics. Juzo offers the highest quality two-way stretch materials.  This is one of the many reasons why a Juzo compression stocking proves to be reliable and particularly comfortable to wear. After wearing one for brief periods, patients no longer want to be without it's support and obvious benefits.
