What is
intermittent claudication?

Intermittent claudication, also known as vascular claudication, involves a reduced supply of blood (and therefore oxygen) to your leg muscles. A narrowing of the leg arteries causes fatigue and pain in, for example, your foot, calf, thigh, or buttock while walking.

Effects of intermittent claudication therapy:

Pain reduction
Walking longer distances again
Improved blood circulation in the muscles

Healthier lifestyle
More muscle strength
Improved stamina

Under the therapist’s guidance, you will improve the blood flow and coordination of your muscles. Other important points of attention are gait, muscle strength, and general condition.

Healthy lifestyle

A healthy lifestyle combats intermittent claudication. Therefore, the specialist also focuses on lifestyle choices, such as diet, exercising, medication use, and smoking cessation. It is vital to maintain a healthy lifestyle even after treatment.
