Explore our upper limb compression garments
Upper limb compression garments are medical-grade supports that apply controlled pressure to the arm, shoulder or hand, assisting with circulation, swelling and overall limb function.
Our collection includes arm compression sleeves, hand compression gloves, post-surgical compression garments and post-mastectomy compression stockings for the upper limbs. We also offer compression bandages for arms, full-length compression arm sleeves and hand-specific supports, each targeting a different area of the upper limb. Explore options that support strength, dexterity and range of motion while helping you stay active and independent.
Get adequate support after surgery or injury
Upper limb compression gloves, sleeves and other garments aid in post-operative recovery and rehabilitation. By potentially reducing oedema, stabilising soft tissue and encouraging healthy circulation, they help promote healing and support mobility.
Our range includes solutions suited for recovery after shoulder procedures, upper arm injuries and post-mastectomy care. Compression stockings for the upper limb are particularly useful in managing post-surgical swelling or trauma, while sleeves and gloves support tissue repair and reduce discomfort during recovery.

FAQs
To find the right size, measure the circumference of your arm at specific points — usually the wrist, forearm and upper arm — and match those measurements to the sizing chart provided with the product. If you're using a compression bandage for the arm, the length and width will depend on the area needing support.
Compression levels typically range from light (15–20 mmHg) to medical-grade (30–40 mmHg or higher). The appropriate level depends on your condition — mild swelling may only require a lighter sleeve, while post-surgical care or lymphoedema often needs firmer support. A healthcare professional or one of our trained team members can help you choose the right compression level.
Yes. Many of our compression arm sleeves and compression stockings for the upper limb are designed specifically for lymphoedema management, post-mastectomy care and post-operative swelling. Be sure to check the product description or ask our staff for recommendations suited to your recovery plan.
It’s easiest to apply compression garments in the morning when swelling is minimal. Roll the sleeve or bandage onto the arm gradually, avoiding folds or wrinkles. Donning devices can also make the process easier. To remove, roll the sleeve downward gently without pulling or yanking to preserve the garment’s elasticity.
No prescription is required to purchase compression garments from us. However, if you're managing a medical condition such as lymphoedema or chronic swelling, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional to ensure you select the appropriate compression level and garment type.
