Putting on new compression garments

We know that putting compression garments on can sometimes be hard so we  developed 6 easy steps to help.

 

  • Sock Puppet - Put your hand in the sock and grab the heel between your thumb and fingers as if making a sock-puppet.
  • Inside Out - While holding the heel, turn the product inside out, which puts the Heel to the forefront.
  • Step In - Step into the foot and place the heel of the stocking just short of the foot.
  • Unfold It - Gently unfold the garment leaving a small, single-layer band across the foot.
  • Pop It - Put your finger into the fold and pop it over the heel.
  • Smooth It - Smooth out all wrinkles and place the top band 2 fingers width from the right angle bend of your knee.  Don't over pull it.
