Whether you’re an athlete striving for peak performance, a healthcare professional spending long hours on your feet, or an office worker sitting all day, compression socks from 360 Relief can make a real difference. Designed to improve circulation, reduce swelling, and prevent fatigue, they are a simple yet effective solution to everyday health concerns.

What Are Compression Socks?

Compression socks are not your ordinary pair of socks. They apply graduated pressure, tighter at the ankle and gradually reducing towards the calf. This helps push blood back towards the heart, reducing swelling and supporting healthier circulation.

Our wide compression socks collection at 360 Relief offers styles for athletes, office workers, travellers, and those with medical needs.

Health and Lifestyle Benefits

1. Improved Blood Flow

By promoting circulation, compression socks can reduce the risk of blood pooling in the legs, which is particularly important for individuals at risk of varicose veins or DVT.

2. Reduced Swelling and Fatigue

Whether you’re standing in a retail job, sitting through a long-haul flight, or working at a desk, swelling in your lower legs can be uncomfortable. Options like our Premium Compression Stockings offer effective relief.

3. Enhanced Sports Performance

Athletes use compression socks to maintain stamina during workouts and reduce recovery time. Our Sports Compression Socks are designed to provide support without restricting movement.

4. Relief During Travel

Long flights or car journeys can leave your legs heavy and swollen. The Copper-Infused Compression Socks are a perfect choice for frequent travellers, helping to prevent discomfort and swelling.

5. Everyday Comfort

From pregnant women dealing with water retention to healthcare staff on demanding shifts, compression socks provide day-long comfort and protection.

Who Should Wear Compression Socks?

Compression socks are beneficial for:

• Athletes aiming to boost recovery
• Office workers combating stiffness from long sitting hours
• Nurses and healthcare workers standing for extended shifts
• Travellers on long-haul flights
• Pregnant women dealing with swelling and circulation challenges
• Older adults looking for daily comfort and circulation support

How to Choose the Right Pair

• Compression level: For general use, 15–20 mmHg (as in our Premium Range) is ideal
• Material: Choose breathable fabrics. Copper-infused socks offer additional anti-odour benefits
• Fit: Proper sizing ensures the socks provide effective compression without discomfort
• Lifestyle use: Consider combo packs for regular wear, like our Compression Socks Combo Pack

Tips for Wearing Compression Socks

• Put them on first thing in the morning before swelling starts
• Pair them with breathable shoes for added comfort
• Wash after each use to maintain elasticity
• Replace every 3–6 months for consistent performance
• Consult your GP if you require higher compression levels (20–30 mmHg)

FAQs About Compression Socks

Q: Can I wear compression socks all day?
Yes. Most people wear them throughout the day at work, while travelling, or during workouts for consistent benefits.

Q: Are compression socks safe for everyone?
They are safe for most people. However, if you have a medical condition such as diabetes, always consult your doctor before use.

Q: Do I need different socks for sports and travel?

Check our size guide for ankle and calf measurements to ensure the best fit. Ill-fitting socks may not provide the right level of compression.
