But women with lipoedema in particular often ask themselves: how much activity is really good for me? The answer lies in <strong>being mindful of your own body<\/strong>. Exercise is not only allowed, it is highly recommended.   <\/p><p>Our lipoedema tip is <strong>gentle activities that are easy on the joints<\/strong>. They promote blood circulation and help to get the lymph flow going. Walks in nature, walking barefoot in the sand, swimming in the sea or light aqua aerobics often work wonders. The <strong>compression effect of the water<\/strong> has a similar effect to lymphatic drainage: the buoyancy in the water relieves the tissue, while the movement boosts the metabolism &#8211; an ideal combination to counteract swelling and heaviness in the legs. <strong>Cycling on flat routes<\/strong> or <strong>yoga<\/strong> can also be a beneficial alternative to keep moving without overstraining the body.    <\/p><p>The important thing is to listen to your inner voice. If you feel that your legs are tired or swelling painfully, <strong>consciously take time to rest<\/strong>. Find a shady spot, put your legs up or treat yourself to a cooling break in the water. Small rituals such as a <strong>leg massage in the evening<\/strong> or applying cooling lotion can help to restore your well-being after an active day.   <\/p><p>The rhythm of the day also plays an important role. Use the <strong>cooler morning hours for exercise<\/strong> when the sun is not yet too strong. In the midday heat, on the other hand, it is advisable to avoid physical activity and instead plan periods of rest.
