Circulation booster – hot and cold treatment

fsteady6 — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 13:00:57 +0000

Hot and cold Showers or Hydrotherapy is a good way of improving your circulation. It is something you can do every day, concentrating on the affected area.

When you get hot under a shower the blood rushes to the skin and feeds it. Then when you immediately put on the cold, the blood rushes to the internal organs. You shiver, but what is happening is that your blood is flushing out your skin and leaving it oxygenated.

Your circulation is increased just by the action of your blood being forced rapidly around your body. This hot and then cold water can be repeated up to 5 or 6 times for optimum results. Do not start straight away on very hot or very cold water. Gradually increase the temperature difference between the hot and cold water over a period of a few weeks so that it is not too much of a shock to the system. This single action can dramatically improve your circulation over time.

Circulation problems? – do some exercise

Ensuring that you have good circulation can help prevent problems like heart disease and diabetes. These dangerous and debilitating conditions are so prevalent, that if you don’t have either, it’s a sure bet you know someone who does. Learning how to improve blood circulation is important, and the earlier people learn how to do this, the better the chance people have to prevent problems caused by poor circulation.

Exercise is important for maintaining a properly working circulatory system. Doctors always tell us we need more exercise, but how many of us actually get up and do it? As you get older, inactive lifestyle habits can get in the way of exercise. Resolving to exercise is one thing, but after a few weeks you may find yourself losing steam.

The most important part of designing your physical exercise program is to make sure that it consists of activities you have fun doing and can do at your current level of health. Assigning certain days or times as “walk days” is beneficial for establishing a healthy pattern of regular exercise, if you like walking. If you want to lower your blood pressure and improve your circulation, there’s no better way than regular physical activity.

I’m starting a detox

Next week I’ll be startiing a detox. I like to do one at least once a year. The detox program I going to do this time has two parts and takes about two weeks. I’m looking forward to it! I’m also going to use a few cleansing juice drinks to help me along. One of them is called “the lemon express”. The ingredients are:

apples 3, unpeeled, uncored and quartered

lemon 1, with peel if thin-skinned

white grapes 4oz

Grapes are great cleansers. If you are cleansing your digestive system and reducing food consumpti0n, grapes are a good energy booster as they are high in natural sugar.
