On February 22–23, 2025, the Inovia Vein Specialty Centers team had the incredible opportunity to participate in the Empowering Women’s Expo in Hillsboro, Oregon. With March being Blood Clot Awareness Month, the timing was perfect to connect with the community and share essential information about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), blood clot prevention, and overall leg health.
Why Education About DVT and Vein Health Matters
Many people are unaware of how common—and serious—conditions like DVT and varicose veins can be. Our booth provided valuable space for one-on-one discussions about maintaining healthy circulation and preventing blood clots.
We educated attendees about:
- The importance of compression stockings
- How to recognize the signs of DVT
- Simple lifestyle changes for better vascular health
We also distributed easy-to-understand educational flyers to help attendees spread awareness to friends and family. Our mission is to make vein health education accessible and empowering, and it was inspiring to see how many people were eager to learn.
Spreading Awareness, One Conversation at a Time
Over the course of two days, our team connected with more than 500 people, sharing expert guidance on leg health, circulation improvement, and early DVT detection. A key focus was highlighting how properly fitted compression stockings can significantly contribute to daily wellness and prevent complications.
We extend a special thank you to our partners at SIGVARIS Group for their continued support in raising awareness about DVT prevention. Their collaboration ensures that more patients have access to reliable tools and information for optimal leg health.
Reaching High-Risk Groups and Strengthening Community Connections
One of the most impactful moments of the event was engaging with professionals in industries that require prolonged standing, such as:
- Healthcare workers
- Service industry employees
- Educators
These individuals often face increased risks for vein-related conditions, and we explored ways to introduce workplace education and preventive strategies tailored to their needs.
Beyond conversations with attendees, we strengthened relationships with local healthcare providers. By working together, we ensure that patients can access specialized vein care services when they need them most.
Looking Ahead: Join Us in Spreading Awareness
As we observe Blood Clot Awareness Month, we invite you to help spread the word. Whether by:
- Sharing educational materials
- Attending community health events

Every action counts toward building awareness and promoting healthier lives.
