Whatever your destination, this summer to go on vacation you will necessarily have to borrow the car, the train or the plane!
While in this season we tend to think of our skin with sunscreen and our eyes with the sunglasses we forget our legs are the first to suffer travel and heat.
In fact, sitting for too long because of long-term trips increases the symptoms of heavy legs.
And confined spaces, changes in temperature, stuck legs, but also changes in ambient pressure only worsen the phenomenon.
To fight against these evils and spend a serene summer in spite of the heat and transport, discover the advice of Sigvaris, specialist of the heavy legs:
- Avoid cluttering the leg and foot space with carry-on luggage while traveling
- Remember to perform regular movements to exercise the calf muscles and stimulate the venous circulation to reduce periods of immobility (if possible).
- Do not expose yourself to sources of heat : sun, baths, sauna, waxing hot ...
- Privilege walking and stairs,
- Choose small heels and loose clothes,
- Refresh your legs with cold water and elevate them when you rest.
It's your turn !
