I think the only thing they do is promote circulation, so they might be valuable on a flight. But for recovery? No real science of which I’m aware. I use compression sometimes, but mostly because I like the way it feels when I’m sore and it reduces muscle jiggles which can hurt. I never ever ever ever run or bike in them. Hate compression on my calves during… hate it.
