Abstract
Using a special measurement equipment the motility range of the ankle joint and the talo-calcaneo-navicular joint in healthy young volunteer s was compared with and without compression hosiery. There was no limi tation in joint motility using the stockings of moderate compression ( german compression class 1 and 2) but a reduced motility using strong compression hosiery (german compression class 3 and 4) was found espec ially in the ankle joint. This difference was significant in the produ cts of two manufacturers.
