With birth rates at their highest since 1973, Daylong, one of the UK's leading online retailers of support stockings, is highlighting the benefits of compression hosiery maternity tights to the growing pregnant population.
During pregnancy, women experience many changes which put added stress on the body and in particular, the legs' venous system. These changes seriously weaken the walls of the blood vessels causing them to swell and lose tone. It is estimated that 20 to 40 percent of all pregnant women develop venous problems.
The Solidea and Venosan ranges of maternity tights, available from support stocking retailer Daylong, act on the veins to restore tone and strength to the vessel walls; regulate the blood flow rate back to the heart; and prevent backflow of blood into smaller veins and tissues which could eventually lead to spider veins and varicose veins.
The specially designed maternity tights wrap the legs in scientifically correct compression to return the venous system to normal function and reduce the risk of skin rashes and ulcerations resulting from unchecked or untreated varicose veins.
The Maman Maternity line from Solidea comes with expandable, flat seams to offer non-stop cradling support for growing tummies. In addition, it helps pregnant women look slimmer with special, comfortable materials that slenderize curves. The Wonder Model Maman offers tummy and full-leg support in addition to exclusive cotton soles that are designed to give added support and massaging relief to tired feet. The lace thigh support and comfort waistband makes this line both fashionable and conducive to a pregnant woman's changing body. This style is available in camel, glace, bronze and black.
Ann Henson, from Daylong, says: "It is important that all mothers-to-be are aware of what is available to them to help make their pregnancy as stress free and enjoyable as possible. With clinical studies proving the effectiveness of compression tights on preventing varicose veins and blood clots, as well as relieving many uncomfortable symptoms which occur in the legs during pregnancy, our maternity tights ensure there is one less thing to worry about during pregnancy."
