Everything you need to know about what STOX Energy Socks do and how they work.

STOX Energy Socks are scientifically proven, snug-fitting socks simply designed to help your blood vessels work better. The gentle pressure from compression improves circulation, which allows you to feel energized while minimizing the chance of edema, varicose veins, blood clots, embolism, venous insufficiency, and general discomfort.

How do STOX Energy Socks work?

STOX Energy Socks work with specific elevated pressure up the legs at precies mmHg ratings. Typically the pressure is tighter at the ankles and looser, going up the legs to help blood flow freely instead of pooling. The arteries taking oxygenated blood to your muscles are able to relax, allowing your blood to flow freely. At the same time, the veins get boosted, pushing deoxygenated blood back to your heart and lymph nodes.

Graduated compression

It’s the most effective form of compression, offering a medically designed gradient-level of support. Graduated compression profiles work by creating precise amounts of pressure at different parts of your legs and feet, forcing your veins to narrow and increasing the speed of blood circulation.

Most common ways people benefit from STOX Energy Socks

To elevate athletic performance and reduce post-workout soreness. Graduated compression therapy helps to oxygenate cells and to clear lactate build-up from the bloodstream. Faster oxygen delivery gives you less muscle fatigue and more energy for a high-intensity workout.

Post-workout, many athletes experience a temporary reduction in athletic performance, caused by muscle fatigue, delayed onset muscle soreness, shin splints, edema, and various minor injuries. For serious athletes, prolonged recovery can disrupt training schedules and run-ups. Our medical grade compression socks help to oxygenate cells and to clear lactate build-up and other waste materials from the bloodstream. Specific elevated fabric pressure up the legs boosts your blood circulation, which enables your lower limbs to feel more energized.

After prolonged periods of sitting or standing, circulation in the lower limbs slows considerably. As a result, blood tends to pool in your legs. Graduated compression therapy assists venous return, helping your legs feel light, springy, and lean all day long. Healthy blood flow lowers your risk of vascular conditions, such as varicose veins, blood clots, and embolism.

Those who stand on their feet all day at work, sit or travel for extended periods may find that circulation in the lower extremities slows considerably. As a result, blood pooling can occur in lower limbs. Our compression socks with a graduated compression profile help increase blood flow from the venous system to the heart. You’ll notice an improvement in peripheral edema, lymphedema, and other medical conditions that cause swollen legs.

Sitting for prolonged periods on a plane, train, or in a car can cause blood and fluid to pool in the lower limbs. Stagnant blood flow may cause deep vein clotting, which can lead to pulmonary embolism and other dangerous medical conditions. Our medical grade compression socks reduce the side effects of edema by gently squeezing your ankles and legs. Specific elevated fabric pressure up the legs increases blood flow from the venous system to the heart. Once the blood starts to move, swelling subsides. That’s why many doctors recommend compression socks for long-haul flights.

During pregnancy, swelling in your lower extremities can be caused by the normal increase of blood volume and fluid. When there’s poor circulation, this can lead to blood clotting in your deep veins, putting you at high risk for life-threatening complications. Our medical grade compression socks gently squeeze your legs to assist venous return, resulting in better overall blood circulation. Graduated compression therapy reduces pregnancy-related edema and lowers your risk of blood clots.
