Do not be lazy, stretch!
Of course, it's nice when your master looks after your legs. That softly, then, on the contrary, vigorously rubs the heels, kneads your fingers ... Do you dream of a holiday in Bali, where, according to your friends, the best masters of massage? Well, for now self-massage! Believe us, this procedure is not inferior to the professional. Massage of the feet will relieve fatigue, improve the general condition of the skin and "treat" the entire body, because there are a lot of reflex zones on the feet, the mechanical irritation of which stimulates the work of all organs. Take a small amount of massage oil in the palm of your hand and start with a gentle rubbing of your fingers - first by straight strokes, then spiraling. Now the turn of the plantar part of the foot: with a wavy wave movement from the fingers to the heel. Then you need to grind it properly. Finish the massage with soft strokes. After a similar procedure, it is best to go to bed.
Tempered
Beautiful legs - the face of a woman. And for the sake of this beauty, we are ready to walk all day on stiletto heels and rushing through the whole city for a rendezvous with a flying gait. But long hours spent on heels and in narrow shoes, do not pass without a trace: the legs are tired, swollen, and even in a dream you think that you hurry somewhere. Spread the feet of the spa-day. Prepare for them a toning bath. You will need sea salt at a rate of 2.5 st. l. for 1 liter of water. Put your feet in it for 15 minutes, and ... close your eyes and dream about the pleasant. Sea salt not only relieves fatigue, but also heals cracks in the skin. After the tray, carefully wipe the legs and apply a nourishing cream.
Running from problems
Active lifestyle - another component of leg health for many years. If you lead a predominantly sedentary lifestyle, spending weekdays in the office in front of the monitor, try to walk at the end of the day, at least 20-30 minutes on the way home. In addition, about once an hour, get up from the chair and walk around the office, stretching your legs. Do not sit on your foot: thus, blood vessels are clogged, and circulation of blood is hampered. And simple exercises will relieve fatigue, improve blood flow and lymph drainage. What can be simpler: doing the usual household chores, balancing on the toes, up and down, up and down ... And do not be lazy to climb to your floor on foot: this is an excellent charging for the calf muscles and buttocks.
Look at the plate
Yesterday I was tempted by the wings of the barbecue from my boyfriend's plate, and the day before yesterday I tasted the sharp burritos at a Mexican party. It's no wonder that your legs are on strike today and do not want to get out of bed. Sharp and salty dishes hold water in the body, leading to swelling. It's time to revise the usual menu. Add to it foods rich in polyphenols (apples, white grapes, red berries). Include in your diet green onions, beef liver, olive oil, avocado. These foods are rich in vitamin E, which, in turn, is responsible for the elasticity of the vascular walls. Do not forget about tomatoes: the lycopene contained in them together with vitamin C promotes the synthesis of collagen and increases the elasticity of the skin. Now you know what the perfect legs should be!
