circaid juxtafit Essentials Upper Leg with Knee Compression Wrap – Adjustable Upper Leg & Knee Compression System
Call 866-218-0902 to confirm sizing, left vs. right leg selection, and proper length before ordering.
The circaid juxtafit Essentials Upper Leg with Knee Compression Wrap is an adjustable inelastic compression system designed for patients who need targeted compression from below the knee to the groin. It is commonly used for upper leg lymphedema, venous insufficiency, post-surgical swelling, lipedema support, and edema management where standard thigh-high compression stockings are difficult to apply or maintain.
Unlike pull-on compression garments, the juxtafit wrap system uses overlapping adjustable bands with medi’s Built-In-Pressure System (BPS™), allowing patients and clinicians to apply repeatable therapeutic compression while adjusting fit throughout the day. This improves compliance, comfort, and long-term clinical results—especially for patients with changing limb volume.

Why Choose the juxtafit Upper Leg with Knee System?
Traditional thigh-high compression stockings can be difficult to apply, especially for patients with limited mobility, arthritis, hand weakness, or significant edema. The juxtafit wrap system offers clinical-grade compression without the struggle of pull-on garments.
This system is especially valuable for:
- Upper leg and thigh lymphedema
- Knee swelling with proximal edema
- Post-surgical lower extremity swelling
- Venous insufficiency affecting the thigh
- Lipedema support and maintenance
- Patients unable to tolerate traditional compression stockings
- Caregiver-assisted compression management
Because compression can be adjusted during wear, patients often maintain more consistent therapeutic pressure and better long-term adherence compared to elastic stockings.
Coverage Area
This garment is specifically designed to provide compression coverage from just below the knee to the upper thigh and groin area with an integrated knee section for improved fit and continuous compression.
- Below knee transition zone
- Knee support and compression zone
- Lower thigh
- Mid thigh
- Upper thigh
- Groin approach area
The lateral rise design improves fit in the upper thigh region and helps maintain consistent positioning during daily wear.
circaid juxtafit Upper Leg Sizing Chart
Sizing must be based on clinical circumference measurements and leg length, not clothing size. Proper sizing is critical for effective compression therapy.
| Size | D Circumference | E1 Circumference | G Circumference | Length Options (E-G) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XXS | 23–30 cm | 32–42 cm | 40–52 cm | X-Short / Short / Long |
| XS | 27–35 cm | 37–48 cm | 46–62 cm | X-Short / Short / Long |
| S | 31–41 cm | 42–55 cm | 54–70 cm | X-Short / Short / Long |
| M | 35–46 cm | 50–65 cm | 60–80 cm | X-Short / Short / Long |
| L | 40–52 cm | 58–76 cm | 69–90 cm | X-Short / Short / Long |
| XL | 44–58 cm | 66–87 cm | 77–101 cm | X-Short / Short / Long |
Length Selection:
X-Short: less than 25 cm
Short: less than 35 cm
Long: greater than 35 cm
Measurements should be taken when edema is at its lowest state—usually first thing in the morning or immediately after treatment.
How to Measure Correctly
- D Measurement: circumference near the knee / lower upper-leg transition zone
- E1 Measurement: circumference at the mid-thigh region
- G Measurement: circumference at the upper thigh / groin area
- Length E-G: inside leg measurement from E to G zone
- Select Left or Right Leg based on treatment side
It is recommended to mark the leg using a non-permanent marker before measuring so length measurements remain accurate across all circumference points.
Do not size up to compensate for swelling. Proper circumference matching produces better compression results than guessing by clothing size.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the juxtafit Upper Leg with Knee used for?
It is used for adjustable upper leg compression therapy in patients with lymphedema, thigh swelling, venous disease, post-surgical edema, and lipedema support where standard compression stockings are not ideal.
Is this easier than thigh-high compression stockings?
Yes. The wrap-style design is significantly easier for many patients to apply and remove, especially those with arthritis, weakness, limited flexibility, or caregiver support needs.
What is the PAC band?
PAC stands for Power Added Compression. It helps provide additional focused compression and improves therapeutic effectiveness in targeted areas.
How do I choose X-Short, Short, or Long?
This is based on the E-G length measurement—not height. Measure the inside leg length according to the sizing chart and match to the correct length range.
Can I use this for lymphedema maintenance?
Yes. Many patients use juxtafit systems during both reduction and maintenance phases because the adjustable design helps adapt to volume changes over time.
Is this sold per leg?
Yes. This product is ordered by left or right leg and includes the selected side only.
Can I wash the garment?
Yes. The system is designed for repeated daily use and is machine washable according to manufacturer care instructions.
