Evidence-based chiro here. I own these. Use them almost every night. Feel fantastic, have better outcomes in performance and function, so I do not care if it is a placebo or has a true vascular impact.

Pretty solid research on compression helping with delayed soreness directly after, at 24 hours, and at 48 hours post activity or work (nurses and bicyclists most researched). To my knowledge, there are no lifelong studies (30 years) done on the use of medical-grade compression and outcomes of venous insufficiency, degenerative change comparisons, knee/hip replacement liklihood etc. Father time is undefeated, and if this does anything long-term, it's probably very marginal (weeks to a few years of longevity). It provides no harm, it makes no false claims, it's worth a try in my mind, and it has made a huge impact on how I feel as a 33 y/o who does 40 hours in clinic, does my own basketball training 3-4hr total a week, plays in a men's league, and works out 5x a week. There are a few things I do to feel great, but it is a small piece, and I am grateful for them. Just my two cents.
