Socks off with Ease!
POINT YOUR TOE AND GO!
Sock-eez, an assisted daily living dressing aid was developed and designed for those who suffer from Lymphedema, Deep Vein Thrombosis, Arthritis and Edema. The elderly and the physically challenged also benefit from the use of this remarkable, ergonomic dressing aid that removes the thickest and tightest compression hose with one easy strain free motion.
Never have trouble removing your compression socks again. The new and innovative Sock-eez makes it simple and easy to remove those socks without straining a muscle. Great for athletic socks, knee-highs and traditional dress socks too!
1. To use Sock-eez, it is important to be in a seated position. To begin, place the lanyard on wrist and slide the far end tip of the Sock-eez under the top band of the sock, at the back of the leg. It is helpful at this stage to keep the heel on the floor for stability.
2. With the toes pointing upward, this allows the back of the leg and foot to become as straight as possible. This action will promote an easy slide down the back of the leg towards the heel. It is important to push slowly so the tip of the Sock-eez remains between the skin and the garment always. The “hook” gently forces and gathers the sock as you push downward toward the heel.
3. Once the far end tip of the Sock-eez reaches the heel, point the toes down. At this stage, you can either pull the foot out of the sock or continue to push the sock off with the Sock-eez. It is very important to always keep your toes pointed down at this final stage to insure an easy removal of the sock.
4. Socks off with ease! For removal of sock on left leg, position the Sock-eez on the inside of the leg, and follow the previous steps 1 thru 3.
