Method for tailoring a compression garment

Abstract

A method for tailoring a compression garment. The compression garment comprises a first sheet and a second sheet, each having a first lateral end and a second lateral end, at least one strap for holding together the first lateral end of the first sheet and the first lateral end of the second sheet. Said at least one strap is tightenable to establish a compression level to a human limb or body part by the compression garment. The method includes: a first step of adjusting the at least one strap to be in a first position; a second step of draping the compression garment around the limb or the body part; a third step of holding the second lateral end of the first sheet and the second lateral end of the second sheet together to pull the first sheet, the second sheet and the at least one strap into contact with said limb or body part; a fourth step of marking a cutting line on one or both sheets; a fifth step of cutting the first and the second sheet along the cutting line; a sixth step of splicing together both cut ends with at least one splicing element.
