Elevate your legs

When you sit, raise your legs. Put your feet on a chair that is higher than the one you are sitting on. If you are laying down, put a few pillows under your feet to raise your legs above your heart. This will speed up the circulation and enable you to relax.

Have a hot bath

Inhaling the steam from the hot bath enables the respiratory system to increase oxygen supply to every body cell, detoxifying potentially harmful carbon dioxide.

Stop smoking

Smoking is the cause of many health problems. Bad circulation is one of them. If you smoke, this is the right moment to stop.
