How it works
Obesity increases intra-abdominal pressure, impeding venous return from the lower limbs. It also increases blood volume and vascular load, worsening venous insufficiency.
Weight loss alone does not reverse established varicosities but reduces symptom burden and slows progression. Best combined with compression and exercise.
Getting started
This is a lifestyle-based approach. Start gradually and consult a health professional if you have any concerns about suitability for your situation.

โSome improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.โ
