Leg garments
There are two methods of application:
Method A:
Step 1: Loosely form the garment to your leg’s
shape and fasten the hook tabs
(4.1)
.
Step 2: With the foot piece of the garment
furthest from you, slide your leg into the
garment until it reaches your knee
(for lower
leg, shown in 4.2)
or upper thigh
(for whole
leg, shown in 4.3)
.
Note: Do not stand or walk
while wearing leg garments. Photo is for
illustration purposes only.
Step 3:Readjust the hook and loop material
of the garment if necessary so that it fits
securely but comfortably on your leg
(4.4)
. As
the garment inflates it will intelligently apply
compression based on your limb size so it is
not necessary that the garment have a snug
fit or apply compression from donning.

Your toes may or may not extend from the end
of the garment, depending on your foot size.
The garment should not be applied so tightly
that it applies compression without inflation,
and it should never hurt. The garment
connector should extend from the end of the
garment closest to the heel.

hook and loop material of the garment and
open the garment
(4.5)
.
Step 2: Place your foot in the foot section
of the garment with your heel comfortably
positioned in the heel pocket
(4.6)
.
Step 3: Starting at the ankle, secure the
garment in place around your leg using the
hook and loop material
(4.7)
. As the garment
inflates it will apply compression so it is not
necessary that the garment have a snug fit or
apply compression from donning.
Step 4: Continue securing the garment up
your leg until the entire garment is fastened
(4.8)
. When applied, the garment should be
comfortably secured, but not so tight that it
applies compression. Fully applied whole leg
