3 Good circulation and good health Circulation is the word used to describe the constant movement of blood around the body, made possible by the pumping action of the heart. Good health and an active lifestyle require good circulation Improve Circulation Alleviate discomfort Reduce swollen feet and ankles Why good circulation is important Returning blood to the heart especially from the feet and legs is hard work for the circulation, because this blood has to overcome gravity. The circulation therefore needs help from muscles in the legs. The muscles in your lower legs and feet operate like a pump, pushing blood back up to your heart and helping to maintain good circulation, working as your second heart. When leg muscles are inactive for long periods, blood flow in the legs slow significantly and consequently begin to pool. If left untreated, poor circulation can lead to serious health issues and loss of mobility. 3

4 Causes and symptoms of poor circulation Poor circulation is a common problem for older people. However certain lifestyles and medical conditions can also result in poor circulation. Signs of poor circulation can be quite easy to spot. Check out the tables below to find out the causes of poor circulation and some of the common symptoms of poor circulation. Conditions and lifestyle factors that could cause poor circulation: Signs and symptoms of poor circulation Painful, aching legs & feet Swelling in the ankles (oedema) Numbness (peripheral neuropathy) Skin discolouration Cramps Cold feet Slowhealing wounds, including ulcers Age Smoking Obesity Sedentary (Inactive) Lifestyle Prolonged sitting or standing Certain Medical Conditions High blood pressure High cholesterol Diabetes Osteoarthritis Knee and hip replacement surgery 4

9 Operating are recommended to be used for minutes each day to get the best results. It can be used up to 6 times a day ie. a maximum of 3 hours per day. Before a demonstration, start by checking the 3 contraindications: Are they fitted with an electronic implanted device such as a heart pacemaker or Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (AICD)? Are they being treated for, or have symptoms of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): such as pain, swelling and tenderness, heavy ache, warm or red skin in the leg? Are they pregnant? If they answer no to all these questions, proceed with the demonstration. Sit down and place both bare feet on the footpads. Make sure socks/stockings have been removed. Note: Remind customers not to stand on the machine. It should be used only when seated. Turn the device on and increase the intensity until customers can feel or see the muscles in the calves contract and relax. Ensure they familiarise themselves with the sensation of Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Note: Everyone is different so the intensity level will be different for each person. After each demonstration, clean the footpads using antiseptic wipes. Note: Hydration is important drinking a glass of water or applying a moisturiser (like the REVITIVE Foot & Leg Gel) will improve conductivity. 9

The electrical stimulation creates a pumping action of the leg muscle as the muscles contract and relax. This action helps to push the blood up through leg veins and back to the heart. This action actively improves circulation and alleviate pain & discomfort in the legs and feet, caused by poor circulation.
