And this discomfort is increased tenfold when summer arrives and sunny days. To overcome this, we suggest you adopt a few everyday and very simple actions, perfect for lightening the legs!
The right light legs reflex: the compression stockings
Long anti-sexy for many, stockings were only released for a long haul flight. Good news, fashion designers have taken up the challenge of making them more glam. Audacity of Sigvaris, Venoflex de Thuasne or Déesse de Veinostim, for example, illustrate this new generation of compression stockings. We can wear them everyday with skirts, dresses and stilettos.

Then place your hands around the ankle to make small circular movements around the malleoluses. Then go up his hands like bracelets along the calf, to the knee. Make some pressure, then go up all the way to the buttocks. Perform this light leg massage 6 times.
