Posture Control Braces
These braces will help you lift your back and shoulders upright so that your posture does not bend forward as much.
At the very least they will remind you to stand up straight.
Knee Braces
Knee braces are also among the most popular types of braces that people shop for. These will support the flexibility and pain in your knee or patella.
Abdominal Binders
Many people come across abdominal pain or hernias in the abdomen area. For these reasons, compression is needed and an abdominal binder will likely provide support.
Neck Collars
Neck or cervical collars are great for neck injuries or pain. They will keep your head raised and neck supported. We carry both foam and hard neck collars in-store.
Clavicle / Shoulder Supports
These clavicle supports will be similar to posture control braces and will also provide additional support for your shoulders.
Ankle Braces
Ankle injuries are very common and the first thing a doctor might recommend is compression. These braces will provide support for your ankle during an injury.
Hernia Briefs / Belts
We carry two options for hernia support. These options are both padded and offer different sizing.
Wrist Splints
We carry a variety of different wrist splints ranging from 6' to 8' supporting both wrists or abducting your thumb. For less firm options, we carry flexible wrist and thumb supports as well.
Back / Lumbar Braces
Back braces are probably the most common braces. People may wear a back brace for injury or simply just support throughout the day.
We have various different options for you to try in-store.
Post Op Shoes / Short Walker Boots
We carry both short walkers and post op shoes for different foot injuries you may come across. We can size you in-store and you can walk better the same day.

30-40 Compression Socks
Highest level of compression provided by Jobst and typically prescribed by a doctor.
15-20 Compression Socks
Most common and medium level of compression. Popular for people on their feet all day or who like to travel.
Leg Compression Machine
This leg compression machine is amazing for those who have trouble getting socks on or simply want another form of reducing their swelling. Just plug into an outlet, wrap around your legs and pick a mode.
How Do Compression Socks Work?
The 8-15mmHg level of compression is usually for those who are thinking ahead and may want to use compression stockings early on for preventative measures.
This is the lightest compression that you will find which is why it is usually not recommended for those who already have some type of swelling or varicose veins.
Although it will provide some type of compression, it may not be enough for your blood flow to push up and decrease swelling in your limbs.

The 15-20mmHg compression is the most common and popular level of compression for most people. It's not necessary for you to have any swelling in order to wear these stockings but they may provide comfort for those of you who are on your feet all day or travel often.
The compression level basically means that there is a level of "20" compression towards the end of your feet and it is gradually decreasing to a level of "15" compression towards the rest of your body. This causes the blood to flow upwards so that your swelling may decrease and prevent clotting in one area.

The 20-30mmHg is a high level of compression where a physician's advice may be required for you to know that you do need this higher level of compression. These tend to be tighter than the 15-20 level of compression but are not as tight as the 30-40 level of compression.

The 30-40mmHg compression is the highest level of compression provided by Jobst. This tightness will also be prescribed by a doctor to ensure that your condition is suitable for this tightness.
