Veins in your legs work against gravity to return blood to the heart, so it is helped along by tiny valves that stop the blood going backwards.

These one-way valves can weaken, causing blood to pool, which leads to bulbous, protruding veins. The discomfort of varicose veins is often described as fatigue, heaviness, itching or even cramps.
Historically, treatment of varicose centred on surgical removal of varicose veins under general anaesthetic. However, endovenous catheter ablation has become so successful that surgery is seldom needed. Endovenous means "working inside the vein" and ablation means "to close off". Under local anaesthetic, a laser fibre is threaded into the varicose vein and used to close off the problem veins, prompting the blood to redirect itself. Compression stockings are worn for two weeks post-treatment and regular walking is recommended.
There is no need for time off work. If you have varicose veins that are affecting you call Vein & Laser for a consultation with our doctor, vein physician Elisabeth De Felice.

The new Madison Park Homes show home at 126 Colonial Drive, Millwater stands out from the crowd with its innovative new design, mono pitch styling and contrasting claddings of natural timber and stone.
The home is a showcase of the quality build principles Madison Park is becoming known for. Everywhere you look there are quality fixtures and fittings chosen from carefully selected suppliers. The home gives you a tremendous sense of space and lightness due to the clever use of large windows, high ceilings and oversize doors.
“Our philosophy is based on offering a range of inspiring home designs to encourage clients to think outside the ordinary”, says Ron Saxby, Madison Park New Home Consultant. “We hope our new show home will inspire visitors as they develop ideas, plans and specification for their own new home”.
We love giving advice and guidance. Come and see us at our new show home. Open 12 - 4pm, Tuesday - Sunday or take a virtual tour
