What can you do for swollen legs, AND what are you doing?
Two important questions!
What you can do is
: lymphatic drainage massage weekly with a therapist trained in this type of massage
: dry brushing daily before your shower. It really doesn't matter if am or pm as long as its done.
Let me tell you why-because the intention is to get your body fluid flowing.
:wear pants/skirts that are non restrictive around your top thighs and tummy areas
:drink water
:move. That's right move throughout your day, rock your ankles back and forth, walk around multiple times a day, walk up those stairs, do small little squats while waiting for another task to complete. Weird in an open office-invite your colleagues to join in.
:lastly breathe. Breath and movement are the bodies natural fluid returning motivators.
:apply an aromatherapy oil blended to assist oedema.
What are you doing? And what works best for you.
Lymphatic Drainage is an advanced technique, done as a post graduate diploma when consulting a massage therapist make sure to check.
And physiotherapists usually offer this service.
