Holistic Healing For Varicose Veins Pt 3
Part Three
Holistic Healing For Varicose Veins Pt 2Varicose veins are a problem that with time and effort will respond to holistic approaches to pain relief and healing. The best solution here is to look to natural remedies to help ease the pain and to look to preventative maintenance in order to keep the body of the sufferer as fit, healthy and strong as possible.
Acupuncture and acupressure can be put into play for this condition. The areas to be worked on include SP 5, SP 11, BL 38, ST 32, ST 36 and CV 1. Be aware that these two holistic approaches will not improve the look of varicose veins but they can prevent the condition from becoming more painful and from getting worse.
Aromatherapy is another form of holistic healing that works well fro sufferers of varicose veins. Take 12 drops of the essential oils geranium and 12 drops of cypress and mix them with four ounces of a particular carrier oil whether it be almond, sunflower or soy. Once thoroughly mixed, apply the mixture to the legs by stroking it in an upward direction towards the heart.
However it is not wise to massage the essential oils directly onto the varicose veins. What you need to do is to massage the oil in the vicinity of the veins as you gently stroke it over the affected areas of the skin. Oil of rosemary or Rosmarinus officinalis when massaged with gentle fingers onto the varicose veins is able to encourage circulation in a positive way due to the fact that it causes the capillaries to not contract but dilate.
Oils of chamomile and cypress are known as Matticaria recutita and they are effective at relieving discomfort as well as soothing the inflammation and swelling that accompanies varicose veins. Color therapy can also be put to use for those suffering from varicose veins.
Now For Some Holistic Tips Alternative ReliefSilica for example is an excellent choice of a constitutional remedy while aurum works for individuals who are constantly exhausted and find themselves suffering from either depression, a lack of sexual desire or both. Females who experience tenderness in their breasts and who may or may not suffer from pockets where there is a great deal of swelling in the breasts should look to conium for help. Conium is also recommended for females who have little if any interest in sex. Females who suffer from vaginas that are dry or who experience tenderness in their abdominal areas over where their right ovary lies should look to lycopodium fro the relief they need to feel better again and to heal. The surface of the skin has a great deal of nerve endings and these all receive stimuli from a variety of sources on a regular basis. Acupuncture's Role In Pain Relief |
The colors red and yellow can be used by way of being applied to the area where varicose veins are present for a period of approximately half an hour on a daily basis. When an individual with varicose veins has ulcers on their legs it is best to use blue light radiation applied to the legs for a period of 30 minutes and then follow this up by applying ultraviolet light for 45 minutes. This should be done every single day for a period of 10 to 60 days.
A diet rich in fiber is recommended for sufferers of varicose veins. The recommended amount is at least 30 grams per day in order to prevent the necessity of straining to pass stools. To incorporate more fiber into your diet eat as much whole grains, fruits, vegetables and legumes to your diet as possible.

If you are suffering with back pain, try putting your legs up. Try resting them on a chair, while you lay down on the floor. This will take the pressure off your spine, and also helps keep your blood flowing. |
When it comes to fruits, in particular consume cherries and blackberries as often as you can. These foods are all rich in substances that prevent the development of varicose veins and also help to decrease the pain that often accompanies them. Vitamins that should be eaten in plentiful supply by varicose vein sufferers include vitamins A, B complex, C, and E.
