Compression Garments in Northern Virginia

Compression garments are tight, form-fitting pieces used as therapeutic aids in the post-surgery recovery process or in managing various conditions. They work to encourage blood flow, promote healing and improve performance. Compression garments can be worn on the arms, legs, torso or full body, helping every body type, recovery timeline and lifestyle.

Hann’s Pharmacy carries a comprehensive line of SIGVARIS®, JUZO® and JOBST® pressure garments. These brands are reputable for testing their products for the correct graduated compression — an essential measurement for your health and the garment’s effectiveness.

Compression garments require precise measurements to be the most effective for the wearer. The right fit can ensure optimal blood circulation and help prevent the development of blood clots. A perfect fit is paramount to the medical benefits these garments offer, which include:

• Reducing swelling by preventing fluids from building up in your tissues
• Supporting your joints, such as the knees and elbows
• Helping wounds heal more effectively through reduction of swelling
• Improving chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) through enhanced blood circulation
• Preventing deep vein thrombosis

Whether you need a pressure garment to enhance recovery from sports injuries, support IVF transfers or improve circulation, Hann’s Pharmacy can help you find the right fit.

If you need a compression sock fitting in Fairfax, the staff at Hann’s are trained in taking proper compression measurements and offer two forms to fit your needs — regular or custom.

Regular Fitting

Regular fittings are our standard option and last around 20 minutes. We will take your measurements and find a garment in stock that provides the right compression level. You can then take your garments home and begin wearing them immediately.

Custom Fitting

We also offer custom fittings for compression garments. These appointments last up to an hour as we take more precise measurements than a regular fitting. We will then order a garment based on your exact measurements to be custom-made specifically for you. These compression garments can take around two weeks for production and shipping to our store.

Important Information for Fittings at Hann’s Pharmacy

When scheduling a fitting at Hann’s Pharmacy, here are some tips to keep in mind:

• Please arrive 10 minutes before your scheduled fitting to complete the paperwork. If you are 15 minutes late to a fitting, we will need to reschedule your appointment.
• A $20 fitting fee will be due before a regular fitting session and a $50 fitting fee will be due before a custom fitting session, which can be used towards the purchase of compression garments when purchased at Hann’s Pharmacy. If you do not make your purchase on the same day as the fitting, we will accept your receipt as proof of payment.
• We can ship your order to your home for a small delivery fee.
• We cannot bill health insurance for compression garments.
• All orders placed must be paid ahead. All compression garments are non-returnable, final sale.

How Tight Should a Compression Garment Fit?

Compression garments should fit snugly. While they must be tight enough to provide support, you should be able to sit, stand and walk comfortably. A garment that is too tight can hinder circulation and affect healing. If the compression garment rolls down or you notice sensations of numbness, tingling or nagging discomfort, the fit is too tight.

How Long Do Compression Garments Last?

Compression garments usually last between three and six months. Over time, they become less stretchy. With frequent wear and washing, the fabric loses elasticity and ultimately provides less support. The overall quality of the garment will impact its longevity, so it’s important to replace compression garments when the fit starts to loosen.

Is It Safe to Wear Compression Garments Overnight?

While many types of compression garments should not be worn overnight, nighttime compression wear is beneficial in certain situations. Speak to your health care provider to determine how long you should wear your compression garments for optimal support.

How Often Should You Wash Compression Garments?

It’s important to wash your compression wear every two to three days. Always check the manufacturer’s recommended wash and care instructions. If the product is machine-safe, place the compression garment inside a mesh bag before putting it in a washing machine. The mesh bag will provide extra protection and ensure the garment doesn’t stretch out of shape during the machine’s spin cycle.
