Authors comments
Rosemary oil helps Susanne. Her feet do not swell and she does not have to wear support hose. She also has less phantom pain caused by swelling. If a little support from support hose is still desired to prevent swollen legs or achieve better blood pressure, they are available at ordinary lingerie stores.
