INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the Heel Guide

™

Compression Stocking Aid

on a flat surface, with the

opening of the cone facing

away from you.

2. Hold the sock or stocking

over the cone with the heel

towards you. With both

hands, drape the sock or

stocking over the column. Do

not twist or bunch the sock.

The toe of the sock should be

approximately 1” below the

top of the column.

Note: Once the sock is placed on

the cone you will need to push it

up so that it does not go more

than half way down the cone.

3. While in a seated position,

place your toe in the opening

of the sock. Using the handles,

gently pull the device

upwards. The stocking will

slide on. You may find that a jerky motion works best.

4. When the stocking is over the calf, pull the device away backwards.

If necessary, pull the rest of the stocking up by hand.

Practice will speed up this process. The device is only to be used while a

person is in a seated position.

Warning: DO NOT USE WHILE STANDING.
