Your Comfort and Health Start with the Right Fit

Getting the right fit for a compression garment goes beyond comfort, it’s about making sure you have the support your body truly needs. A garment that’s too tight can cause irritation or restrict your movement, while one that’s too loose won’t deliver the benefits it’s designed to provide.

At Care-Med in Toronto, a compression fitting is a relaxed, personal appointment where we take the time to understand you. We’ll talk about your daily routine, your health needs, and what you hope to achieve from wearing a garment.

Some people come to us after surgery, others are managing ongoing conditions, and many are simply looking for relief from swelling or fatigue during travel or long days on their feet. Our aim is to help you find a garment that feels good, supports your health, and fits naturally into your life.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

When you come in for your fitting, we’ll start by discussing your medical history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. This conversation helps us recommend the right garment style, material, and compression level for your needs.

You’ll have the opportunity to try different options and see what feels best. We’ll show you how to put on, take off, and care for your garment so it lasts longer and stays comfortable. We’ll also answer any questions you have about insurance coverage, ongoing use, or replacing your garment over time.

Our Commitment to You

With over 18 years of experience, Care-Med is known for providing personalized care that puts your comfort and health first. We understand that every body is different, so we take the time to listen, explain, and work with you to find a garment that gives the right balance of fit, support, and comfort.

If you’ve never worn compression garments before, or simply want to be sure you’re getting the best fit and support, a professional fitting is the best place to start. You don’t need a physician’s referral to book, and most extended health plans or workplace benefit programs cover the cost of compression garments with a prescription.

We can guide you through the paperwork and make sure you have everything needed to submit for reimbursement. For added convenience, we offer direct billing with some providers and keep detailed records of your garment history so refills and repeat fittings are simple. Our goal is to make the process as stress-free as possible so you can focus on feeling better.
