- Tired, aching legs
- Legs feel heavy or swollen
- Varicose veins
- Edema
- Lymphedema
- Venous Insufficiency
The principle is simple.
Oxygenated blood is transported to the legs. De-oxygenated blood is then transported back up the legs to the heart. This transportation of blood requires pumps that are powered by the muscles and joints, with the veins functioning as pipes.
If the veins become enlarged, the flow of blood becomes inefficient. Compression therapy constricts the pipes to restore adequate blood transport, thereby revitalizing the legs.
Medical compression stockings are the single most important factor in treating venous disorders. The aim of treatment is to maintain a high quality way of life despite an insufficient venous system. Moreover, compression has the clear advantage in that it does not cause adverse reactions.
In venous disorders and lymphatic edema, compression therapy and life long follow-up treatment is absolutely essential. However, medical compression stockings are desirable and sensible in cases of situational venous system abuse, for instance:
- For people who have to sit or stand for long periods
- If the temperature is too high, for example in overheated rooms or prolonged exposure to the sun
- If the ability or the opportunity to move sufficiently is lacking as example during pregnancy or long airline flights.
Consistent use of support stockings and medical compression stockings provide the best protection against the onset and progression of venous and lymphatic disorders.
Two Way Stretch
Wearing a compression garment should not restrict your free movement. Juzo's two-way stretch compression garments offer a natural freedom of movement and a superior fit.
Covered Compression Threads
Compression threads alone, whether it be synthetic elastomers or natural rubber,  do not offer characteristics that make them comfortable against the skin. Many manufacturers offer products made using uncovered compression threads and promote this process as being "revolutionary". In actuality, people often complain that they are hot, sticky, and difficult to put on.
By adding the extra step of covering each compression thread, Juzo can provide compression garments that are soft, breathable, comfortable to wear, and easier to put on and take off.
Synthetic Elastomers
Rubber and lower quality synthetic elastomers (synthetic form of rubber) can breakdown if not properly cared for. That is why Juzo garments offer high quality synthetic elastomers, bringing you the following advantages:
- Sesistant to ointments, lotions and sunlight
- Sheerer fibers for a more aesthetic appeal without sacrificing therapeutic effectiveness
- Machine washable and tumble dryable
- Increased durability
- Latex free
Sizing
Juzo products are offered in a wide range of off-the-shelf sizes and lengths, minimizing the need for more expensive custom made garments.
Guarantee
Juzo garments are guaranteed for six months to maintain proper compression and to be free of manufacturing defects. Our warranty surpasses that of some of the other leading brands.
