How To Use the Flexible Stocking Applicator

1. Feed the stocking or sock onto the plastic as shown in the image below. Whilst it may be difficult to keep it in place with regular applicators, the Dorking Stocking Aid is held securely by contoured side notches.
2. Slide your foot through the opening end, and use the tapes to pull up over the foot and leg. Though it may take some practice, using a stocking aid can be a much easier alternative for individuals with limited mobility as it greatly reduces the need for bending or stretching.

Stocking Aids for Arthritis

Many individuals suffering with Arthritis know that discomfort in the hips and knees can make simple things, such as putting a pair of socks on, overly difficult. Painful joints can prevent you from bending down to reach your feet.

With the Contoured Stocking Aid, you can put on your socks or stockings whilst in a comfortable seated position. There is no need to bend over, due to the length of the tapes. Simple assistance from the Stocking Aid can make living with Arthritis just a little bit simpler.
