Whether you're purchasing your first compression garment or replacing an existing one, we're here to make the process simple and comfortable.
How Compression Therapy Works
Medical compression stockings apply graduated pressure, with the highest compression at the ankle and gradually decreasing pressure toward the knee or thigh. This supports healthy circulation and helps your body's natural venous return.
Compression therapy can help:
-
Improve blood circulation
-
Reduce swelling
-
Support healthy vein function
-
Minimize leg fatigue
-
Reduce feelings of heaviness and discomfort
-
Improve comfort during work, travel, and everyday activities
Medical compression stockings are available in several compression levels based on your healthcare provider's recommendation.
Medical Compression Therapy Fittings
Medical compression stockings are designed to improve circulation, reduce swelling, support healthy vein function, and help keep you comfortable throughout the day.
Compression therapy may benefit people experiencing:
-
Varicose veins
-
Chronic venous insufficiency
-
Leg swelling (edema)
-
Tired, aching, or heavy legs
-
Pregnancy-related swelling and discomfort
-
Recovery following certain surgeries
-
Lymphedema (when appropriate)
-
Occupations requiring prolonged standing or sitting
-
Frequent air travel
-
Athletic recovery
If you're unsure whether compression therapy is appropriate for you, one of our healthcare professionals can help determine whether it may benefit you.
Orthopedic Brace Fittings
Orthopedic braces provide external support to injured or weakened joints, helping reduce pain, improve stability, and promote healing during rehabilitation and everyday activities.
Bracing may be recommended for:
-
Sprains and strains
-
Arthritis
-
Tendon injuries
-
Joint instability
-
Sports injuries
-
Repetitive strain injuries
-
Post-operative support
-
Chronic musculoskeletal conditions
Our healthcare professionals will recommend the most appropriate brace for your condition and ensure it fits properly for maximum comfort and effectiveness.
Why Professional Fitting Matters
Medical compression stockings and orthopedic braces are only effective when they fit properly.
A professionally fitted product can help:
-
Improve comfort throughout the day
-
Ensure the correct level of support
-
Reduce the likelihood of sizing errors
-
Maximize therapeutic effectiveness
-
Improve confidence when wearing your garment or brace
Our trained fitters use precise measurement techniques to ensure every product is properly sized before it is ordered.

Don’t Have a Prescription Yet?
If you do not yet have a prescription for medical compression garments, one of our physiotherapists may be able to assess symptoms such as leg swelling, heaviness, or fatigue and provide a brief recommendation summary for you to discuss with your physician or nurse practitioner.
For orthopedic bracing, our physiotherapists or chiropractors can assess musculoskeletal concerns and recommend whether a brace may be appropriate.
Your physician or nurse practitioner will determine whether to issue a prescription. For medical compression garments, the prescription may need to include the required compression level, such as 20–30 mmHg or 30–40 mmHg, depending on your insurer’s requirements.
