How to apply your Activa Hosiery:
1. Slip your hand down inside of the stocking.
2. Gently grasp the heel area and pull the stocking inside out.
This will leave the toe region still tucked in.

4. Unfold that inch as you get your toes and heel into the right position.
5. Gently pull the rest of the stocking over the foot, heel and ankle.
6. Pull the stocking up your leg in stages – Try not to force it.
7. Below knee stockings have to be pulled up to the bend at the back of your knee.
8. On all hosiery make sure that your toes are NOT restricted.

How to remove:
All Activa hosiery should be peeled off gently, DO NOT roll the stocking to remove.
