The need for foot care

Foot care is often an unobvious part of the beauty ritual. But it is necessary to take care of them, because even naturally slender legs can lose their shape if you do not give them proper attention. The rules of care are not limited to hydration and nutrition. Additional effort will be required on your part. However, the result - an easy walk and a good mood - is worth it.

If you spend most of your time in an office chair and driving a car, or, conversely, are forced to be on your feet all day, then sooner or later you will face the problem of swelling.

A massage with draining cream will help against swelling of the legs.

Puffiness is the main enemy of a graceful leg contour. The reason is slow blood circulation and lymph stagnation. The accumulation of fluid in the legs causes a feeling of heaviness and changes their shape for the worse.

The good news is that you can cope with congestion and keep your feet in perfect shape on your own - with the help of a simple care program.

Basic principles of care

The minimum foot care program is aimed at combating swelling and congestion. Stimulating blood circulation and lymph flow is your main task. Other useful tips are below.

Knees and ankles are the main areas responsible for fluid accumulation and disruption of lymph flow. Massage them as often as possible to prevent swelling. As a massage product, use oil or nourishing cream that provides glide. You can add a little anti-cellulite product for a drainage effect.

Knead the area above your knees with your thumbs. Gently knead the inside with your fists and pat the back surface with your palms. This way you will stimulate blood and lymph circulation.

Massage your ankles with smooth circular grips in the direction from the heels to the calves.

Stretch your calves with your fists and fingers, moving from bottom to top.

Grasp your ankle with both hands, slowly rise to your knee, as if pulling on a stocking, and then to the groin fold, where the lymph nodes are located.

Advice. During a foot massage, use weight loss and anti-cellulite products. They always contain components that help remove fluid from tissues.

Run cool water over your feet, moving the shower head from your feet to your thighs. This hydromassage relieves tension and fights congestion.

No, we are not driving you to the sports club. Everything that is good for your feet can be done both at work and at home (even while lying in bed).

While sitting, make several circular movements with your feet in both directions, without lifting your heels from the floor.

Raise your big toes from time to time throughout the day to stimulate circulation.

Tap your feet on the floor, lifting your toes but keeping your heels in place.

Stand on your tiptoes, straight up. Stretch by moving your arms back and tightening your legs. Stay in this position for a few seconds, then relax. Do this exercise several times a day to keep your legs in good shape.

It is useful to do exercises for the legs and feet in the evening before bed.

Take a tennis or golf ball and roll it between your feet twice a day for a couple of minutes - this exercise relieves tension in the soft tissues of the foot.

Don't sit still for more than 40 minutes, find a reason to walk at least around the office. Walking is the best exercise for swollen feet.

Before going to bed, while lying in bed, raise your legs up and move them in the air, as if shaking off fatigue. You can do this in the morning for a lymphatic drainage effect.

How to choose foot care products

The appearance of the legs depends not only on their shape, but also on the condition of the skin. The skin on the ankles and legs is prone to dryness and flaking, as they contain few sebaceous glands and are under constant stress. Therefore, regular moisturizing of these areas is important regardless of the season.

All body care products are also intended for the skin of the feet. Choose thicker textures in winter and lighter textures in summer. And don't forget about sun protection.

Proper foot care

Feet are the driest area of ​​our body. The skin of the feet is completely devoid of sebaceous glands, but contains a large amount of sweat glands. In addition, over the years it noticeably loses elasticity and becomes rougher. Foot care consists of several stages.

Keeping your feet clean and dry is important for maintaining healthy microflora in the skin of your feet and nails.

Use special foot products that soften the skin. Apply them all over your feet and nails, avoiding the area between your toes (it should always be dry there). Apply the cream over the ankle using upward movements.

It is better to take care of your feet in the evening, when you are not in a hurry. Baths and massages not only relax your feet, but also relieve stress in general.

Cool foot baths will relieve stress in five minutes.

“Massage is one of the most painless, pleasant and effective ways to maintain healthy, beautiful and youthful skin. It improves blood circulation, normalizes metabolism, promotes the elimination of toxins, saturates cells with oxygen, and relieves swelling,” says Decléor training manager Olga Gorokhova.

Apply foot care products from bottom to top, from feet to thighs.

Use your thumbs to press down on the center of the arch of your foot, then “draw” a spiral, moving from the middle of your foot to the periphery.

Using circular movements, massage the entire foot, including the balls of your feet.

Knead the space between your toes.

Rub your feet vigorously with your palms, as if you were making fire.
