They increase blood circulation by placing pressure on veins located in your and legs.

Compression level is measured in mmHg (millimeters of mercury). The higher the mmHg, the tighter the socks. A good rule of thumb to follow for firm compression is 20-30 mmHg. They are offered as a custom fit, are great for daily wear, recovery during pregnancy, long distance travel and to manage mild symptoms of varicose and spider veins.
