Make changes to your diet

A nutritious diet is the cornerstone of good health, and it directly impacts our circulatory function. Foods rich in antioxidants, such as fruits and vegetables, help combat inflammation and promote blood flow. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish like salmon and flaxseeds, contribute to heart health and can enhance circulation. Additionally, maintaining adequate hydration is essential, as dehydration can lead to thicker blood and reduced circulation. Limiting the intake of processed foods and excessive salt can also help prevent conditions that may hinder circulation.

Move more

Regular physical activity is a key factor in promoting healthy circulation. Engaging in exercises that get the heart pumping, such as walking, jogging, or cycling, helps strengthen the cardiovascular system. Simple leg exercises, such as leg lifts and ankle circles, can be particularly effective in targeting the lower limbs. Yoga and stretching exercises can also improve flexibility and promote circulation.

Use Revitive

In addition to a balanced diet and regular exercise*, using Revitive can make all the difference in improving leg circulation. Revitive works in harmony with your body by contracting your calf muscles to improve blood circulation to your legs. These contractions assist in pumping blood towards the heart and lungs, facilitating the flow of nutrient-rich, oxygenated blood back to the legs and feet.

Recognise your progress

While it’s great to take a holistic approach to improving your leg symptoms, it’s key that you also ensure these are manageable steps that won’t overwhelm you. Make a plan that suits you, build on it week by week, and you’ll soon be seeing and feeling the benefits. For extra motivation, make a note of your progress week on week to remind yourself of how far you've come.
