Compression Stocking Aid - Sock Helper
Product Details
The Compression Stocking Aid helps users put on compression stockings more easily and independently. Designed with a sturdy steel frame, it stretches the stocking open to create a wide opening for the foot, reducing the effort needed to apply tight compression hosiery. This makes it particularly useful for people with reduced mobility, limited flexibility or diminished hand strength.
To use, simply stretch the stocking over the smooth central column, insert your foot toe first, then use the long handles to pull the frame upwards in one continuous movement. The high handles reduce the need to bend or reach, while the smooth plastic-coated frame helps the stocking glide into place without snagging or damaging the fabric.
Strong, durable and easy to use, the Compression Stocking Aid is an effective dressing aid that promotes greater independence for everyday compression stocking application.

Review by Rob in Reading Posted on 18/09/2024 11:28:44A neighbour recommended this device to me. I have tried it but found the opening for putting foot in quite narrow and am not sure it will be beneficial for me. -

Review by S. Woodman Posted on 09/09/2024 16:21:47My dad suffers from parkinson's which affects mobility and dexterity. at 89 he is now able to put on his own support stockings which is amazing. it took him a couple of days to master how to do it using this sock helper and a demonstration from me. a really brilliant aid for putting on support stockings or socks. -

Review by J. Phillips Posted on 02/04/2024 11:44:22As I lack a degree of mobility, I struggle to put on my compression stocking.. This aid has made the task much easier. The only difficulty I found was that the stocking holder part could have been a bit wider for my size 8 feet. -

Review by A. Harley Posted on 04/08/2023 08:11:35Couldn't do without it. Makes putting on my socks a breeze. Good price too. -
Rating 80%Very good
Review by R Sanderson Posted on 20/01/2016 16:29:35I bought the compression stocking aid for my dad, after he had a knee replacement, and it's been enormously helpful, except that for the first few days he really struggled because he was using it back to front (!). Ithe aid really helped him through the six weeks of compulsory compression socks, which were a nightmare to put on by hand. We would rate it 4 out of 5. -
Rating 100%Great aid to me
Review by H Buckmaster Posted on 22/09/2015 16:26:12This aid to putting on compression stockings is a wonderful help to someone with little mobility like me. I can now fit my stockings without any difficulty for which I am very grateful. I give this product a top rating, thank you for supplying it.
