Relationships need work to stay alive. If you expect the joy and satisfaction experienced early in a relationship to continue without any work, good luck! The great news is that with effort, love can be enhanced with these tips: • Hug and kiss when leaving the home and arriving back. • Eat together nightly and check-in as to what each of you is doing. • Overlook small negatives that peeve you about your partner. • Explore fun new places, hobbies, and adventures together. • Discuss your expectations, hopes, and dreams. • Remember your partners best qualities by considering what their friends would say about them. • Be intimate regularly as it increases attraction and attractiveness. • Generate positive thoughts about your partner and write reminders about what you value about them. You shape your emotions and romantic feelings are no different. Go on, take the challenge, it’s absolutely worth it!

Spider veins are red, varicose veins are blue. If you have either, here is what you can do! At The Leg Vein Doctor, these are treated using very fine needles to target the individual veins and flush them through with a chemical sclerosant. Spider veins are considered to be cosmetic and retreatment is usually required every few years. Varicose veins on the other hand are larger bluish veins, often they can become “ropey” and protrude from the skin. They are predominantly treated using ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy and the larger ones may require endovenous laser ablation. These newer procedures replace surgical stripping and allow patients to be treated without the need for hospitalisation and a general anaesthetic. The results are highly effective and with very small recurrence rates when compared to surgery. THE LEG VEIN DOCTOR 465 MILTON RD, AUCHENFLOWER P 3720 9912 THELEGVEINDOCTOR.COM
