• Compression arm sleeves are mainly used for the prevention and treatment of lymphedema. They can also be prescribed to treat phlebitis, post-thrombotic syndrome, post-liposuction, blood poisoning, tennis elbow and for burn treatment.
• Gloves and gauntlets are worn in conjunction with a sleeve to treat or prevent swelling in the hand and wrist.
• Compression sleeves and matching gauntlets in beautiful colors, and a wide variety of patterns and prints.
• Wraps are compression alternatives for individuals with limited hand strength, nonstandard limb shapes, fragile skin, or with significant fluctuations in swelling.
