How Can I Improve My Circulation in the Winter to Help with Neuropathy?

Cold winter days can be brutal for anyone—but if you have neuropathy, numbness, tingling, and burning can feel relentless. The good news? A few simple tweaks (and a little help from our Outback Oil Roll-On) can keep your circulation moving and your hands and feet warmer.

 

Why Does Winter Make Circulation Worse? ❄️

Before we dive into solutions, let’s tackle the big question: why does winter mess with our circulation?

1. Cold Causes Constriction: When it’s cold, your blood vessels constrict to keep your core warm. Great for survival, not so great for hands, feet, and legs where neuropathy likes to hang out.
2. Less Activity: Be honest—do you move as much in winter? Hey, it happens. Fewer walks and more couch time mean slower blood flow.
3. Dry Winter Air: Dehydration sneaks up on us in winter, thickening our blood and making circulation even harder.

 

 

Small Changes, Big Impact

Improving circulation doesn’t require a full-blown lifestyle overhaul. A few tweaks can make a world of difference.

 

1. Get Moving, Even When It’s Cold 🏃 — Boost Circulation in Minutes

Movement is key, even indoors. Try:

• 5–10 minutes of gentle stretching in the morning (“coffee warm-up” ☕)

• Marching in place during TV breaks

• Short indoor walks around your home

💡 Tip: Pair these movements with Outback Oil Roll-On on your legs or feet for extra relief and circulation support.

 

2. Warm Your Core 🔥 — Keep Extremities Toasty

If your core stays warm, your hands and feet follow.

• Layer with thermals or sweaters

• Use heated blankets or pocket hand warmers

• Sip warm beverages (herbal teas with cinnamon or ginger are great!)

 

3. Massage for the Win 💆 — Relief That Works With Outback Oil

Massage naturally boosts circulation. If a professional isn’t an option:

• Try our Wooden Massager — perfect for working out tight spots at home.

• Pair it with Outback Oil Roll-On for added warmth and comfort, enhancing circulation and soothing neuropathy.

Add circulation-friendly foods to your meals:

5. Hydrate Like It’s Summer 💧 — Keep Blood Flowing

Cold air dries you out faster than you think. Tips:

• Warm water with lemon

• Herbal teas instead of sugary cocoa

• Stay mindful of hydration even when it doesn’t feel hot outside

 

6. Elevate Those Legs 🦵 — Give Your Circulation a Lift

Spending time with feet propped up helps blood flow back to your heart. Perfect excuse for a mid-day lounge.

 

7. Compression Socks: Not Just for Airplanes 🧦

Compression socks keep legs warm and improve circulation — a simple, underrated tool.

💡 Pair with Outback Oil Roll-On for even better comfort during long indoor hours.
