Packaged in a convenient container, this tea offers a natural and pleasant solution to promote leg comfort.
Black currant (Ribes nigrum) is a plant with well-established venotonic properties. This means it helps maintain the tone and elasticity of veins, which is essential for effective blood circulation. By acting as a vascular protector, blackcurrant also strengthens the walls of blood vessels, which can help reduce the risk of capillary fragility and other circulatory problems. Its high concentration of active ingredients makes it a natural tonic and stimulant, beneficial for overall vascular health.
Red grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is a plant recognized for its venous tonic properties, making it a valuable ally in supporting blood circulation. In addition to its venotonic effects, red grapevine is also a powerful antioxidant. It works by protecting cells from damage caused by free radicals, thereby helping to maintain vascular health and prevent premature tissue aging. Thanks to its beneficial effects on blood circulation, red vine is particularly recommended for venous insufficiency, varicose veins, and other conditions related to poor blood circulation.
Hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa) is a plant known for its high content of flavonoids, compounds with well-documented anti-inflammatory properties. These substances help soothe inflammation and reduce discomfort, making hibiscus an ideal choice for relieving symptoms associated with various conditions, including circulatory problems. In addition to its anti-inflammatory action, hibiscus acts as a tonic, helping to revitalize the body and promote a sense of general well-being. Regular use can help maintain healthy blood circulation and prevent vascular problems.

Why Do We Get Heavy Legs?
The feeling of dragging lead weights, a sensation of heat, and above all, pain... Nearly 15 million French people, 70% of whom are women, suffer from heavy legs. A sign of poor blood circulation, heavy legs can become very debilitating and cause self-consciousness when they swell significantly and small veins appear, marbling the skin. Most often, symptoms develop gradually: after a hot day or a very tiring day.
Venous insufficiency results from poor circulation in the leg veins. 70% of women reportedly suffer from heavy legs, at least periodically. The veins in the legs are responsible for returning blood from the feet to the heart. But it’s a long way up, and gravity works against them. Sometimes, the small valves in these veins—which are supposed to prevent blood from flowing back down into the legs—don’t work properly. Venous return is impaired, and blood pools in the lower legs.
If venous insufficiency is left untreated, varicose veins may develop. To relieve the sensation of heavy legs, the Iphym laboratory has developed a blend of herbs that reduce swelling and promote blood circulation.
To prevent heavy legs, we recommend regular physical activity to reactivate the leg muscles and promote blood flow, avoiding tight-fitting clothing, and avoiding hot baths, as they cause the veins to dilate.
A leg massage can help relieve discomfort and stimulate venous circulation, as can running your legs under a stream of cold water.
We also recommend applying a mixture of calophyllum vegetable oil and cypress essential oil, which will promote microcirculation and reduce swelling.
