Increasing Blood Flow
Good blood flow is of course the key to everything. And it can be facilitated by wrapping aluminum foil around the body. The warmth from the foil makes it induce proper blood flow, particularly if one has a cold or stiff extremity. It can really be beneficial for people who are suffering from circulatory problems, like diabetes, and peripheral artery disease.
Improved circulation increases oxygenated and nutritional supplies to the cells, promoting recovery and healthy tissues. Wrapping the feet in foil both after physical exercises and when in a sedentary life can help counteract poor circulation.
It can also be combined with some soft foot exercises in maximizing the benefits. Also, elevating the feet while wrapped in foil enhances the flow of blood for relaxation.
