The answer is that blood flow to the leg is provided by the arteries which we don’t treat. Veins remove the blood from the legs and carry it back up to the heart. Varicose veins are broken veins allowing the blood to flow backwards toward the feet. When we eliminate these veins, we actually improved the venous return to the heart. This can help to improve swelling and can definitely get rid of that heavy achy feeling in the leg.
