Lifestyle Changes: Exercise, weight loss, and compression stockings are great ways to improve circulation within your body, especially to your legs. As we get older the valves in or veins that help return blood to the heart don't work right. By exercising you keep your blood flow strong and heart and muscles healthy. Weight loss reduces excess stress on veins while compression stockings reduce swelling.
