Custom Support Stockings and Compression Therapy

Swelling, fatigue, spider and varicose veins in the lower legs can be relieved by compression socks or stockings. Medically graded to improve blood flow and lymphatic drainage to the heart, compression stockings are beneficial for individuals who sit or stand for long periods of time, travel (especially on airplanes), and for those who have poor circulation in the lower legs. New technology from Therafirm allows easier application of the stockings and therefore more convenient to wear.

Contact our Aurora location for more information and ask to speak with Karen Goodyear, Registered Physiotherapist and Certified Fitter of Compression Stockings at (905) 841-0411 or kgoodyear@ honsbergerphysio.com

Honsberger Preventative Health Index
Helping you save money and improve your health

In today’s business environment with economic downturns and decreased health care benefits, Honsberger Physiotherapy is striving to help its clients save money and maximize their health.

All injuries have some type of cost associated with them. Cost needs to be looked at in at least 3 ways:
1. Physical cost of injury assessment and treatment
2. Lost time and revenue from work or activity
3. Loss of quality of life

With a relatively minor injury, on average 10 sessions are needed for full recovery. This works out to be approximately $600, plus the time lost at work for travel and treatment time. Alternatively a more serious issue such as a disc herniation or knee ligament tear can results in expenses in the thousands of dollars.

For business add in the increased costs of providing health benefits to employees (or workplace safety insurance premiums). As the number of claims increase so does the cost of premiums.

One clear way to avoid injury and the associated costs is to evaluate the risk of injury before it happens. Honsberger Physiotherapy has developed a low-cost, effective health screen to evaluate an individual’s risk for injury. If a problem is found, a series of simple exercises can be given to correct the fault, or a more detailed evaluation may be warranted. In either case, an efficient plan of action can be implemented to help eliminate the risk of injury.

How does a cost of $25 compare to thousands of dollars?
