ARIMED provides a full line of custom and non-custom compression stockings. We also specialize in measuring patients for custom burn supports for hypertrophic scarring. Both our staff and facility are fully equipped to handle difficult cases ranging from pediatric to adult.

Primary Uses For Compression Garments
Compression garments are graded in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and are designed for patients with varicose veins, lymphedema, ulcers, cellulitis and other diagnoses.

The compression is applied in a gradient manner, which means that more pressure is applied to the lower part of the body and decreases as it moves toward the center of the body. Compressions range from 8-15mmHg to 50+mmHg depending on your diagnosis and your physician’s objective.

Primary Uses For Burn Supports
Custom burn supports are graded in millimeters of mercury and designed specifically for patients who have burn injuries. They provide comfort as well as therapeutic compression for hypertrophic scar formation. Compressions range from 5mmHg to approximately 32mmHg.

Scheduling An Appointment
It is recommended that measurements for compression garments be taken as early as possible in the morning. This is when swelling is at a minimum and yields appropriate measurements.

Patients who are being measured for custom burn supports can have their appointment scheduled during the morning or afternoon.
