Love Your Legs Tip #2: Wear Compression Stockings
Specially designed to prevent the development and worsening of venous diseases like spider and leg varicose veins, medical grade compression stockings offer one of the easiest ways to protect your legs. These stockings reduce vein stress, boost blood flow and relieve tired, aching legs.

This compression helps to support the weakening vein walls. As a result, blood flow is increased, which helps to reduce swelling, fatigue, pain and possible formation of clots in the legs.
