I have been meaning to get these for a long time and I finally pulled the trigger.
I got them specifically for pregnancy and postpartum goals:
To improve leg circulation
Reduce swelling
Promote a good flow with all the extra fluid retention and blood volume
Get a leg lymphatic drainage so important during these stages of life
I use them every night for 30min while I watch TV. In bed. There are different settings and levels.
And it is truly a great home investment vs out of home treatments that get more expensive AND are impossible to get to with a newborn / baby!
As always ask your OBGYN / midwife mine approved!
I’ve also been looking into recovery tools, and compression boots keep coming up. Beyond pregnancy and postpartum, athletes (especially swimmers and runners) are using them for faster recovery and circulation support. This guide breaks down the benefits of compression boots in detail — worth a read if you’re curious how they compare to in-clinic treatments.
