Compression wraps for legs and feet are specialized medical products that are designed to manage and alleviate the symptoms of lymphedema, edema and venous disease. By applying controlled pressure to the affected areas of the leg and feet, these compression wraps help promote the flow of lymph fluids, blood flow within the venous system, and help reduce edema (swelling) in the legs and feet.
When used as lymphedema wraps, a leg compression wrap is usually worn after completion of lymphedema complete decongestive therapy (CDT) and during the secondary or "maintenance" phase of lymphedema treatment.
When used to treat venous conditions such as venous disease, these compression wraps for legs and feet are worn to provide gradient compression to help promote the flow of blood through the venous system, helping to prevent the development or advancement of more severe circulatory-related illness. A Velcro compression wrap is also ideally suited for applying compression to help treat chronic wounds such as venous ulcerations.
These types of compression wraps for legs are easy to apply and can be worn as an alternative for patients who:
- Struggle donning traditional compression garments, due to weak hand strength, bad back or inability to bend
- Have non-standard leg shapes
- Have fragile skin or painful legs that are easily aggravated by traditional compression garments for legs
- Suffer from frequent swelling fluctuation in their legs
- Suffer from arterial disease and therefore cannot tolerate constant high compression levels
Unlike traditional compression stockings, velcro compression wraps are adjustable, which makes them an ideal choice for people who have difficulty putting on stockings and/or who are experiencing fluctuating levels of edema.
Our selection of compression wraps for legs includes:
- Velcro compression wraps for legs

FAQs About Compression Wraps / Lymphedema Wraps
Compression wraps help reduce swelling in the legs and are often used to treat lymphedema, edema, chronic venous insufficiency, post-surgical swelling, and other medical conditions. Below are some of the most frequently asked questions about compression wraps for legs (which are also sometimes referred to as Velcro compression wraps or lymphedema wraps).
Are There Different Types of Compression Wraps For Lymphedema And Venous Disease
- No, there are not specific different types of medical compression wraps for lymphedema and venous disease. All compression leg wraps are designed to apply graduated compression to the leg. These compression wraps for legs can help promote lymphatic and venous flow, and reduce swelling and discomfort.
What Kind Of Venous Diseases Do Compression Wraps For Legs Help Treat
- Compression leg wraps are ideal for helping treat
varicose veins, venous insufficiency, chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and chronic wounds such as venous ulcerations.
How Do Compression Wraps Help With Lymphedema
- When used as lymphedema wraps, compression wraps are designed to apply graduated compression to the lower leg, in order to promote lymphatic flow and help reduce swelling and discomfort.
Can Compression Wraps Prevent Lymphedema
- Compression wraps cannot help prevent the onset of lymphedema, but they can help manage the symptoms and help prevent the progression of lymphedema.
What Are The Most Common Levels Of Compression Provided By Compression Wraps
- Compression wraps can be adjusted as to the amount of pressure they apply to the lower leg, measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). The levels of compression can vary in compression stockings, but the most common compression levels are:
- 15-20 mmHg (mild compression)
- 20-30 mmHg (moderate compression)
- 30-40 mmHg (firm compression)
- 40-50 mmHg (extra firm compression)
What Does mmHg Mean In Compression Wraps
- In compression wraps, mmHg stands for millimeters of mercury and represents the level of pressure (compression) the stockings apply to your legs. This term is borrowed from the same unit used to measure blood pressure, indicating the amount of pressure against the walls of your blood vessels. The higher the mmHg number, the higher the level of compression.
What Does Graduated Compression Mean In Compression Wraps
- Compression wraps are designed to provide graduated compression, which means that the pressure is highest at your ankle and gradually decreases as it moves up your leg. This design on the wraps helps to promote the flow of blood back towards the heart, which can reduce swelling and prevent the accumulation of fluid in your leg tissues.
How To Measure For Compression Wraps For Legs
- When it comes to measuring for compression wraps for legs, we have a compression wrap size chart from the manufacturer. For most leg compression wraps, you will take measurements at your ankle, at the widest part of your calf, and just below your knee. Your healthcare provider will recommend the compression level that you should use with the compression wrap.
Can I Exercise While Wearing Compression Wraps
- Check with your healthcare provider. In general, however, wearing compression wraps while exercising can help promote circulation and reduce swelling.
How Tight Should My Compression Wraps Be
- Your leg compression wraps should be snug enough to apply the correct level of pressure needed to promote blood and lymphatic fluid circulation, without being so tight as to cut off circulation or cause discomfort. If your compression wraps are fitting correctly, they should lie smoothly against your skin, without bunching up or rolling down (which can cause pressure points and restrict circulation).
How Long Should I Wear Compression Wraps Each Day
- Your healthcare provider should make specific recommendations. In general, however, compression wraps for legs should be worn during your waking hours. If worn at night, the compression wraps should be loosened.
What About Sleeping In Compression Wraps
- Your healthcare provider should make specific recommendations. In general, however, sleeping in compression wraps is not recommended unless they are loosened. In part, this is because the circulatory dynamics of your body change when you are not moving, and the stockings could cause constriction and impede your blood circulation.
If your healthcare provider does recommend compression at night, there are specialized nighttime wear compression garments for this purpose.
How Do I Put On Compression Wraps For Legs
- The best way to put on leg compression wraps is to apply the wrap with one hand and adjust the Velcro straps with the other hand. Many of the compression wraps for legs include a sewn-in liner to make this process very easy to do with just a single hand.
How Do I Care For And Clean My Compression Wrap
- Follow the manufacturer’s specific instructions and be mindful of our recommendations for the care and replacement of compression garments, wraps and bandages. In general, you should wash your compression wrap by hand, in lukewarm water, with a mild soap or machine wash on a gentle cycle using a garment bag. Air dry the compression wrap, and avoid wringing them out (which can stretch the fabric).
What Are The Top Brands Of Compression Wraps For Legs To Chose From
- We carry leg compression wraps made by the top manufacturers including these following brands:
How Often Should I Replace My Compression Wrap
- Due to wear and stretch, Velcro compression wraps lose elasticity (and effectiveness) over time and generally should be replaced every 3-6 months.
Do I Need A Prescription To Purchase Compression Wraps
- No. You can order all of our leg compression wraps without a prescription. However, we do recommend that you consult a healthcare professional to ensure that you get the recommended garment, if you are unsure as to what you need.
Can I Use My FSA Or HSA To Purchase Velcro Compression Wraps
- The likely answer is yes, you can purchase your compression wraps for legs using your FSA or HSA account. This is especially true if you are purchasing the leg compression wrap to treat an open wound. You will need to check with your FSA/HSA plan administrator regarding the details of your plan.
Do Insurance Companies Cover Compression Wraps
- Some insurance plans cover compression wraps, with a prescription, depending on your particular condition. Check with your insurance provider for specifics about your plan coverage. We also do recommend that you consider self-pay vs insurance to determine the best option for yourself.
