Compression garments can help to improve your well-being during your pregnancy so that you can get on and enjoy the important things in life.
Medical compression legwear helps to reduce swelling by increasing the pressure in the tissue under the skin.This provides support to your veins and helps prevent them from becoming distended with blood. Plus, it can also help relieve vertigo and nausea.1
Compression stockings can also help prevent thrombosis, avoiding the need for additional medication – an important factor that reduces unnecessary burden on your baby.

Just because you’re pregnant doesn’t mean you can’t travel, even if it means sitting for long periods. The middle of the third trimester is a good time to enjoy a vacation, and compression garments will support you when your muscles aren’t getting as much movement as usual. In addition, you should get up and walk around regularly. And make sure that you stay hydrated and drink a lot of water.

Available in caramel, navy, black, anthracite and cranberry, the compression stockings can be paired with any outfit for a fresh look that’s 100% you.
