Daily Herald   

Do you suffer from unsightly spider or varicose veins?¬  Are you legs just plain tired or swollen at the end of the day? Are you planning any long distance travel and worried about developing DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) a potentially fatal blood clot that forms in the deep vein system of the lower leg?¬ Then it's time to consider the health of your legs.

Fortunately there is one simple measure you can take to improve the health of your legs -- wear graduated compression leg wear.¬ 

Graduated compression leg wear applies decreasing pressure from the ankle to the knee, forcing blood to the leg's deep veins, reducing pooling of blood and maintaining proper flow rate of blood to the heart and lungs, thus reducing the chance of a blood clot.¬  Compression leg wear also helps prevent leg swelling and discomfort and improves circulation.

Graduated compression products are available in three levels of pressure to address varying health needs-- Light, to decrease pain, heaviness and fatigue in lower legs; Moderate, for advanced foot and leg pain and prevention of DVT; and Firm for chronic leg pain and advanced maladies.
