Do compression socks make your muscles lazy?

Compression supports, it doesn't replace

Compression socksapply gradual pressure to your lower legs. This pressure is designed to:
• improve blood circulation,
• reduce muscle vibrations,
• and accelerate the removal of waste products.
But importantly: compression does not do anything that your muscles should do themselves. Your calf muscles remain active, even when you wear compression socks. The socks support your muscles, but do not take over their function.

Become dependent? On the contrary

Compression actually provides:
• Less muscle fatigue
• Faster recovery after exercise
• Lower risk of injuries
And because of this, you, as an athlete or professional, remain active and resilient for longer. If your muscles have to compensate less for shocks or fluid retention, they can function more efficiently.
