Nerves rely on a steady blood supply for oxygen and nutrients. The nerves in the feet and lower legs sit farthest from the heart, which is why circulation often comes up when people talk about nerve comfort in the legs.
What is butcher's broom?
Butcher's broom (Ruscus aculeatus) is a small evergreen shrub from the Mediterranean. Its root has been used in traditional European herbalism for centuries, mainly to support healthy circulation and comfortable, light-feeling legs.
Habits that support circulation
- Walk regularly, even in short bursts
- Avoid sitting with your legs crossed for long periods
- Raise your legs when resting at the end of the day
- Don't smoke, since smoking narrows blood vessels
Talk to your doctor if you have high blood pressure, take blood pressure medication, or notice leg swelling, pain or colour changes.
