Whether you have a desk job or are on your feet all day, compression socks can benefit everyone.
Sitting for 90 minutes or more can cause blood flow below the knees to decrease by 50%, significantly increasing the chance of blood clots and reducing the amount of freshly oxygenated blood to your legs.
Standing all day also can have negative effects on the body because being on your feet puts a 20% greater strain on the circulatory system and on the legs and feet, which can cause fatigue and soreness. As we become increasingly aware of the downsides of sitting and standing all day, it can be hard to know what the solution is - and that’s where VIM & VIGR and compression socks come in!
VIM & VIGR compression legwear is scientifically designed to support your legs all day, every day. Using integrally-knit graduated compression, VIM & VIGR compression socks apply therapeutic pressure that starts at the ankle and gradually eases above. By squeezing the leg from the bottom up, VIM & VIGR compression socks can help increase the circulation of freshly oxygenated blood back to your legs.
Compression socks alleviate achiness and heaviness, energize legs, and prevents swelling. Happy legs and feet means more comfortable employees and make for a better work day – which is a win for everyone!
