Yes, compression can significantly help with inflammation. DFND’s compression wear promotes blood flow and lymphatic drainage, which helps reduce fluid retention and swelling in affected areas. By decreasing pressure around joints and tissues, compression sleeves can ease discomfort and contribute to faster healing after injury or strenuous activity. They are especially helpful for addressing inflammation in the calves, knees, and arms where repetitive movement often leads to overuse. From training to recovery, our compression sleeves are built to perform when you need them most. Choose the style that suits your goals and experience the unmatched support of American-made performance gear that moves with you. Train harder, recover smarter—DFND’s compression sleeves are ready to support your every move.
