1. Watch your weight
Your feet bear the weight of your entire body the whole day. If you are overweight they will be constantly under stress when you walk or stand up.
2. Ditch the couch
Are you scared to begin your exercise routine? Remember that a quick walk even for a minute is better than sitting on the couch watching TV.
3. Massage
In extreme cases of faulty circulation, your feet may turn red, blue, purple, or pale white. If it continues for a prolonged time you may have Raynaud’s disease.
4. Use foam rollers
Any muscle soreness can stagnate the blood flow. Using a foam roller can push the blood ahead and restore its usual good circulation.
5. Keep your legs elevated
Good circulation means abundant blood supply of oxygenated blood to the organs via arteries and their backflow from the organs to the heart via veins. Swollen veins or spider veins can lead to varicosities.
6. Practice relaxation techniques
There are just so many ways to get rid of stress and enter a new realm of positivity.
7. Stretch
If you are not comfortable moving your body into yoga pretzel-like poses then simple stretching could be your forte.
8. Wear compression stockings
Your blood has to be in healthy rotation whether it is in the arteries or veins.
9. Eat healthily
Is your regular dinner a pizza and a can of soda? You should be eating food from all groups like fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, nuts, seeds, fish, meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products to get the maximum from your food.
10. Quit tobacco, alcohol, and caffeine
Smoking increases the fatty deposits causing coronary artery disease. Secondary smoking could also be dangerous.
11. Keep your feet warm
Extremely cold temperatures can worsen the situation. It's important to keep yourself protected from extreme temperatures, especially during the winter.
