Compression therapy is not necessarily safe for everyone and it is important that you are properly fitted with the correct size and garment.  Our mobility customer service staff are trained to assist you and offer a free measuring service in store for all class 1 garments and class 2 garments with a valid script.   


But what if you have complex compression needs that require more than just standard products? That’s why we also offer an occupational therapy service.

Benefits of compression therapy


Compression therapy can provide many benefits for your health and well-being. Some of the benefits are:



  • Excess fluid/swelling management:  Compression helps the body to move the fluid away from the affected area and expel it from the body.  

  • Wound/ulcer healing and prevention: Compression garments can promote wound healing and prevent ulcers by improving blood flow, reducing edema, and preventing infection.

  • Cellulitis prevention: Cellulitis is a painful bacterial infection of the skin and underlying tissues. Compression garments can prevent cellulitis by reducing the accumulation of fluid and bacteria in the affected area and promote better skin health.

  • Falls risk prevention: Compression garments can improve your balance and stability by reducing the fluid volume in your legs and increasing the sensory feedback from your skin.
