足浴按摩預防青筋腳
原本一雙光滑的美腿，突然有條青筋或紫筋跑了出來，不但有礙觀瞻，更隱藏著健康危機，因為那就是靜脈曲張的症狀，常見於長期站立工作者身上，例如售貨員、服務員、教師、護士等等，從中醫角度來看，這是屬於「筋瘤」的範疇，血液淤積在腿部未能回流到心臟，形成腿部靜脈擴張，外觀看來就像蚯蚓攀附在腳上，靜脈曲張一旦形成，需要針灸或做手術治療。
要預防青筋腳出現，工作時記緊不時更換站立姿勢，例如轉換重心腳、走動一下等等，以增加血液循環。穿著舒適並有承托力的鞋子，亦可穿著預防靜脈曲張的壓力襪，減低雙腳勞損的情況。睡覺前可以用暖水泡腳，泡腳時按摩承山穴，有助血液循環，紓緩腳部疲勞。

Prevent veiny legs with feet soak and massage
It is not attractive to see the blue or purple veins on your pretty legs. The veins can signify health issues as well. It is commonly seen in those whose work involves standing for prolonged time such as sales, waiters, teachers and nurses, etc. From Chinese medicine perspective, this is caused by blood stagnated in the legs and not flowing back to the heart causing expansion of veins in the legs. The physically appearance mimics earthworms climbing on the legs, but once varicose veins are formed, acupuncture or surgery would be needed.
To prevent veiny legs, remember to changing your standing position by changing the weight of your legs and walk around to improve blood circulation. Be sure to wear comfortable and supportive shoes, and you can also try to wear pressure socks to prevent varicose veins to reduce the strain on your feet. Soaking your feet in warm water before going to bed and massaging the Cheng Shan Point when soaking your feet will also improve blood circulation and relieve foot fatigue.
