Collection: BV Sport Compression
BV Sport is medical-grade compression wear developed through science, a unique support system adapted to your individual physiology. When we do sport or a job where we are sitting down or standing about for long periods at a time, or even when we are travelling by bus, train or aeroplane, toxins build up in our calves (lactic acid, CO2, free radicals, etc.). The veins tend to dilate causing venous stasis.
Compressing the calves reduces the diameter of the veins hence speeding up the venous flow. This accelerates the return flow of blood loaded with toxins towards the heart. Very quickly, the fibres in the muscles, tendons and ligaments are fed with oxygenated blood hence improving recovery. During sport, supporting the calves prevents vibrations while improving muscle fibre oxygenation when we are exerting a physical effort hence improving our performance.
