- Post-mastectomy care
What Makes the Traditional Unisex Sleeve Different?
- Comfortable and supportive
- Tough, natural rubber construction
- Breathable thanks to large-mesh fabric structure
- High recovery force and stabilised pressure due to consistency of natural rubber
- Water resistant, with six times as much abrasion resistance as a pair of jeans
How Does the Sigvaris Traditional Compression Sleeve Work?
Conditions like lymphoedema can be caused by poor blood flow in the extremities. Sigvaris compression sleeves apply pressure to your limbs in a graduated fashion, helping to increase blood flow from your wrist and lower arm.
What Colour Is This Sleeve?
This sleeve are supplied in the colour beige, which will match inconspicuously with lighter skin tones.
Do I Need the Hand Piece?
The optional hand piece is a good choice if your condition affects your hand as well as your arm. However, if you don't require compression in your hand and would rather it remained unrestricted, you may prefer the hand piece-free version.
Should I Choose Grip Top or Arm Cap?
The dotted grip top band is intended to prevent the sleeve from sliding out of place during the day. While it is certainly effective, some people find it irritates the skin and prefer to wear the sleeve without any grip-top. In that case, the arm sleeve with shoulder cap is also available, offering a snug and secure fit.
Which Level of Compression Do I Need?
This sleeve has a compression level of Class 2, which equates to 23-32mmHg of pressure. This is a moderate level of compression and may not be suited for more severe conditions. If you are unsure of which level of compression you require, we strongly suggest referring to a medical professional.
How Durable Is This Sleeve?
The arm sleeve has a high recovery force due to durable natural rubber construction, which will provide tough, stable compression throughout the day. The sleeve has been tested for water-resistance, revealing itself to be six times more resistant to abrasion and wear than an average pair of jeans. You can be sure that the arm sleeve will retain its effectiveness for a long time subsequent to purchase.
