Swollen veins often occur in the lower legs, though they can effect other areas, see our Haemorroids remedy. As the valves in the veins, in the legs, weaken they do not allow the blood to circulate efficiently causing swelling. Rest, with the legs slightly raised, along with gentle exercise can help circulation return and improve muscle tone. Aromatherapy oils can also be used.
Directions:
Essential oils of Cypress, Chamomile or Juniper can be used with 2 per cent of the chosen oil, diluted in vegetable oil. Then massage above the varicose veins in the direction of the heart. This will help decongest the veins and improve circulation.
