What is a compression sleeve and why is it needed?
When you ask people using compression clothing what they consider to be their main advantage, they often say, “I look good.” Compression clothing tightens, leaving muscle mass to excel in body shape. But the use of compression elements has far more effects than just the optical improvement of our figures.
The main function of compression underwear is to improve blood flow to the target areas for which the piece is developed. Compression clothing encircles the target area, increasing pressure, resulting in increased blood capillary pressure and an overall improvement in tissue perfusion. Improved blood flow should help sports performance by getting more oxygen into the muscle tissue and at the same time facilitating the flushing out of wastes generated during muscle metabolism, such as the well-known lactate, thereby improving our endurance performance. In addition, positive effects on varicose veins, cellulite and compression have also been reported to promote blood circulation in sedentary occupations where blood circulation, particularly in the lower limbs, is greatly limited.
Compression arm sleeve or elastic bandage on elbow joint for elbow fixation. During work and sports training, the elbow pad on the wrist prevents common injuries: bumps and shocks. When a person recovers a fracture or fracture of the ligaments, the joint fixator relaxes the muscles and ligaments and stabilizes the elbow, preventing re-injury.
Because the elastic arm sleeve is made of polyamide and lycra, medical elbow pads exert pressure on the arm, allowing it to fight lymphatic and postoperative edema that results from vessel damage. External pressure stimulates blood flow to the injured part of the arm. Due to the fact that the elbow area is transported intensively with food and oxygen, lymphatic and blood vessels, they leak more rapidly, which removes excess fluids from the soft tissue and subcutaneous tissue.
How to Select and Use:
- Proper use means that you should wear a compression arm sleeve all day long if you have lympostasis or varicose problems in your hands. After lifting in the morning, put one finger on, keeping your hand raised. The sleeve should be pivoted and carefully straightened from brush to shoulder.
- To prevent injuries and hand infections.
- For fixing joints and muscles while exercising.
- During the period of injury recovery, when its use creates comfortable conditions for the muscles, joints and blood vessels to function (prevents them from training during training, developing varicose veins in the arms).
- The presence of varicose veins in the hand stops the disease from progressing.
- Compression sleeve ensures you achieve the highest performance in your daily life or any sport. The silicone layer on the inside of the sleeve has a kinesiological effect that increases blood flow resulting in more muscle energy and easier recovery during and after training or match. Stretch material brings high comfort and mobility.
- Helps keep muscles warm and relaxed.
- Absorbs moisture under heavy load.
- Made of quick drying material.
In addition to using it in your daily life and outfit, the compression arm sleeves, in the “compresses” parchment, are said to be suitable for many kinds of sports (triathlon, cycling, football, fitness, etc.) and are intended to fulfill the function of compression. Therefore, they contract a certain muscle group at the places where the sleeve is applied, in our case the muscles between the ankle and the knee, mainly the calves.
