Massage can help with varicose veins by improving blood circulation and reducing discomfort. Gentle massage techniques, such as light stroking or circular motions, can promote venous return and decrease swelling in the legs.

Using upward strokes towards the heart helps support blood flow and can alleviate symptoms like pain and heaviness. However, it’s important to avoid deep or vigorous massage directly over varicose veins, as this may exacerbate symptoms or cause further damage.

Massage therapy should be used as a complementary approach rather than a primary treatment. Consulting with a healthcare provider before starting massage therapy is recommended to ensure it’s appropriate for your specific condition and to avoid any potential complications.
