At Mr. Yu Master Acupuncture & Healthcare, we provide a comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) approach to support individuals experiencing varicose veins. Varicose veins commonly appear as enlarged, twisted veins, usually in the legs, and may be associated with heaviness, aching pain, swelling, fatigue, skin changes, or night cramps.
From a TCM perspective, varicose veins are often linked to Qi and blood stagnation, Spleen Qi weakness, and poor circulation in the lower limbs. Prolonged standing, lack of movement, pregnancy, aging, or constitutional weakness may contribute to impaired blood flow and vein distension. By improving circulation and supporting vascular balance, TCM helps relieve discomfort and promote leg health.
