SwellEase HighRise - Compression Socks

Swelling, or edema, often occurs during pregnancy due to increased blood volume and pressure on the veins from the growing uterus. SwellEase HighRise - Compression Stockings are designed to address this by providing targeted compression that enhances blood circulation and reduces swelling from the ankles up to the knee. This specific need for full lower leg support is crucial for those experiencing more extensive swelling, as opposed to the SwellEase regular ankle/foot compression socks, which primarily support localized ankle or foot swelling. Crafted from a breathable blend of polyester and cotton, these stockings provide all-day comfort and durability, making them ideal for both everyday wear and active use.

Scientific Research Behind SwellEase HighRise Compression Stockings

1. Effects of Compression Stockings on Blood Circulation in Late Pregnancy:
Research on the use of Class II compression stockings in late pregnancy demonstrated a measurable improvement in both maternal and fetal circulation. This study highlights how compression technology can alleviate swelling and improve blood flow, key benefits claimed by SwellEase HighRise Compression Stockings (Weber et al., 1987).

2. Positive Perception and Efficacy of Compression Stockings for Prevention of Lower Limb Edema in Pregnant Women:
This randomized controlled trial found that compression stockings significantly reduced the increase in calf and ankle diameters compared to a control group. Most pregnant women reported positive experiences with wearing the stockings and noted a reduction in leg symptoms. This supports the effectiveness of SwellEase HighRise Compression Stockings in managing leg swelling during pregnancy (Saliba-Júnior et al., 2022).

3. Venous Function During Late Pregnancy:
A study on the effect of graduated compression hosiery during late pregnancy found significant improvements in venous emptying and reductions in leg problems such as swelling, tiredness, and pain. These findings align with the goals of SwellEase HighRise Compression Stockings to enhance circulation and reduce discomfort during pregnancy (Nilsson et al., 1992).

Conclusion

Scientific research supports the effectiveness of compression stockings in reducing swelling and improving circulation, which are the primary benefits of SwellEase HighRise Compression Stockings.
