Energise Your Legs
How often do you come home in the evening craving to put your feet up? Your legs ache, your feet are tired and you just want to collapse?
You are not alone. In recent research* for Lycra®** it was found that the majority of the volunteers in the study had tired or aching legs (72% of women and 23% of men). This fell dramatically to a minimum of only 29% and 12% respectively when the participants were wearing compression socks.
As well as feeling tired, your ankles swell during the day. Again the study found that the amount of swelling was decreased significantly - up to a maximum of 37%. See below for more information on the study.
As a result Lycra® have introduced a brand new concept in socks – Energising Socks, to help energise and revitalise your legs.
Who Needs Energising Socks?
Whether you are on your feet all day or spending hours behind a computer screen, blood will fall to your feet, this results in swollen ankles and aching legs. Energising Socks are knitted with graduated compression (12mmHg at the ankle) so that your legs are effectively massaged all day long, improving the flow of blood, and "hey presto" you legs feel less tired and generally "Energised".
Lycra's® Energising Socks are also extremely comfortable to wear on a daily basis. Although there is sufficient compression to "Energise your Legs" they are not so tight that they are uncomfortable to wear. They have the added benefit that they don’t fall down! The compression is only in the legs therefore the socks do not feel tight on your feet or squidge your toes. Lycra's® Energising Socks are made from a combination of cotton and the best quality modern fibres so they look and feel like normal socks.
Lycra's® Energising Socks are available exclusively at MyTights.com.
