Posture Perfect Health

Does the heat have you bogged down? Incorporate foods such as cucumber, watermelon, coconut water and mint into your diet to help manage body temperature during summer. Avoid salty foods which can cause you to retain fluid and increase swelling. Minimize diuretics like alcohol and coffee, which can dehydrate you, especially in the heat.

Standing in water provides a pressure gradient on your lower limbs similar to wearing compression garments. If you need to find relief from the heat this summer try standing waist to chest deep in water for 15-20 minutes. The cooler the water better.

Sometimes it's just about feeling lighter. Gathering the skills to feel content in your life. Kathleen can help. www.moving-through.ca

Hot, humid weather can be challenging for people with Lymphedema. To beat the heat try cooling your compression in the fridge or freezer before donning.
