Intended purpose
To support the veins and lymph vessels, compression
or support stockings fit tightly like a second skin. They
are tightest at the bottom of the leg, at the ankle, in
accordance with the human anatomy. To bring the
stockings with the tightest fit over the foot and heel
requires a special donning technique, strength and skill in
the hands and good mobility, as the heel is furthest away
from the hands. A donning and doffing aid can make the
application considerably easier.
COMPRESSANA MASTER is a donning and doffing aid
for compression or support stockings. The donning and
doffing aid is particularly suitable for people with restric-
ted mobility. It not only simplifies the process of putting
on and taking off your medical compression stockings,
but also gives you additional peace of mind: by using it,
you avoid strenuous bending, and the risk of falling is
reduced. The donning and doffing aid is also gentle both
on your skin and the knitted fabric of your compression
stocking. It stretches the stocking beforehand to make it
easier to put it on. And the stocking clasp simplifies the
process of taking it off.
COMPRESSANA MASTER
The donning and doffing aid
for for medical compression
stockings
The COMPRESSANA MASTER makes it much easier to get
in and out of the stockings:
• For easy donning, the stocking is pre-stretched by the
donning station so that you can get into the foot / leg
section and easily pull the stocking up to the knee.
• Taking off the stocking is facilitated by a holding
element that secures the stocking for taking it off and a
handle that „extends" the arms.
Effortless donning and doffing
With a little practice, the COMPRESSANA MASTER allows
you to put on and take off stockings
• effortlessly and simply • sitting down • without
strenuous bending • without effort.

COMPRESSANA MASTER
By pre-stretching the stocking material, friction on the
skin is reduced and the skin is protected. In addition,
the knitted fabric of the stockings is protected against
damage.
The special suitability
COMPRESSANA MASTER is suitable for all people
who prefer things to be easier or who have special
circumstances or life situations, e.g. limited mobility etc.
COMPRESSANA MASTER also makes it easier to start
compression therapy and ensures that the stockings are
put on correctly.
Donning and doffing aids are recommended or prescri-
bed by the doctor for illnesses or handicaps with signi-
ficant functional disorders of the finger, hand and arm
joints, and with restricted freedom of movement, which
make it impossible to put on stockings without aids.
COMPRESSANA MASTER is particularly suitable for
circular knitted compression stockings or for support
stockings.
