Experts estimate that 50 percent of women experience vein issues like varicose veins and their smaller counterparts – spider veins. If you’re one of those women who’s concerned about spider veins, there are ways to treat it and make them less noticeable.

Spider veins usually appear in the legs because of the pressure of your body weight and gravity. Your legs work the hardest to pump blood up to your heart as a result. Spider veins are often caused when there is a backup of blood. Hormonal changes, injuries and sun exposure can also cause spider veins. They’re not dangerous, but they can be uncomfortable.

Massage is a great way to relieve any discomfort caused by your veins and to stimulate blood flow to the area, which can prevent more from showing up. Try rubbing on a product like Kneipp – Lavender Herbal Massage Oil, which smells great and will make your massage movements smoother. A treatment gel like BABOR – Skinovage PX Intensifier Couperose Serum can minimize the appearance of your veins and increase the firmness of your damaged capillaries. Your legs will be looking fabulous again in no time.
