    Dry Brush Your Legs

    6 Tips for Swollen Legs Your Body Will Thank You For

    Among the many benefits of this Ayurvedic technique, increased blood circulation and lymphatic drainage top that list. Our blood carries the lymphatic fluid that is filtered by the lymph nodes.

    When we follow this technique correctly, we accelerate the pumping of the blood, which also helps to carry lymph throughout the body and to eliminate toxins and pathogens.

    Steps to effectively dry brush your legs:

    Get a brush with firm, natural bristles. It is best to do this before you shower and it is more convenient because you will have to undress. Begin at the ankle and slowly move upward in a circular motion.

    Dry each leg, working up to the upper thighs. It should take about five minutes per leg. Be careful with the pressure you apply. It should be firm, but not so firm that it hurts.

    When you are done, you can take a shower or bath and then apply some lotion or body oil.

    Wear Compression Socks

    Compression socks apply pressure to the legs and ankles. This allows your blood vessels to better push blood through your body and to your heart.

    As a result, they help reduce swelling in the feet and legs and provide a feeling of relief after a long day on your feet. Before choosing the best one for you, be sure to consult a doctor first.

    Get A Massage

    Follow these steps for a more effective massage:

    1. Work upward movements.
    2. Place your fingers on your ankle.
    3. Apply pressure with your fingers while gently moving your hands toward your hips.
    4. Move your hands towards your ankles and repeat the same movement about 10 times per leg.

    Easy Exercises To Do At Home

    Before you get up:

    1. Ankle pumping: While lying on your back with your legs straight, bend your feet by moving your toes up and down. Repeat at least 10 times.
    2. Knee bends: After completing this exercise, with your legs still straight, alternately move your knees toward your chest and then down. Repeat ten times with each leg.
    3. Leg lifts: While lying on your back, bend one knee with the sole of your foot firmly on a flat surface. Raise the other leg without bending it until your knees are level. Do this 10 times and repeat with the other leg.

    During the day:

    If you’ve been sitting at your desk for a long time, consider your posture. Avoid crossing your legs for a long time and when taking a break, try the following exercises:

    1. Heel lifts: While holding onto a chair, slowly raise your heels until you are on your toes. Lower your heels until they touch the ground. Repeat 10 times.
    2. Leg stands: While holding onto a chair, put one foot firmly on the floor and lift the other. Hold this position for 15 seconds and repeat with the other leg. Try to gradually increase the time you hold this position.
