Your Pregnancy Can Avoid Painful Varicose Veins

Wearing Graduated Compression Socks During Your Pregnancy Prevents Varicose Veins, Painful Swelling (Edema) and More Serious DVT Blood Clot Complications.

Painful and potentially dangerous swelling doesn’t need to be part of your pregnancy. In fact, unsightly varicose veins or debilitating swollen ankles and feet are easily avoided by wearing SmoothToe® Energizing Socks. The clinically proven graduated compression in the socks is designed to promote increased blood flow and to remove the excess fluids that occur during your pregnancy.

Here’s the best part – SmoothToe are NOT your Grandma’s compression stockings! They’re made with the finest, luxurious yarns available … and they feel incredible.

New soft comfort LYCRA® Energy spandex throughout the sock provides an all-over gentle hug, and the mid-foot arch support takes care of foot fatigue and uncomfortable swelling inside your shoes.

COOLMAX® is one of the softest yarns available and it feels like your feet have been given a soft polish after a day in your socks. Many women report that the skin on their feet softens the longer they wear SmoothToe® socks.

Important Warning*: Venous thromboembolism (VTE, is a serious complication following a DVT) is the leading cause of maternal mortality in the UK and is also a major cause of long-term morbidity.

Recent national guidelines recommend the use of graduated compression socks for high-risk women to reduce the risk of VTE in both the antenatal and postpartum period.
