Welcome.
This site, in association with Orthopaedic Suppliers, is dedicated to the discussion of medical compression garments, also known as elastic stockings or support hose
Most women, and some men, have a need to wear some sort of support on their legs due mainly to pregnancy, heavy lifting, or other circulation disorder. There are many reasons that may cause unsightly veins or blood clots in an otherwise healthy leg. We will explain as much as we can on the effective treatments for various disorders. Please follow the links on the side-bar menu buttons.
It is important to note that circulation disorders are the reason for more leg amputations than any other cause. Look after your legs !
