Preventing Economy Class Syndrome: Tips for Better Circulation and Health

If you don’t eat or drink enough water, sit in a cramped seat in a car for a long time, and don’t move your legs, your blood circulation will be poor and your blood will clot more easily. As a result, a blood clot (thrombus) may flow through the blood vessels and become lodged in the lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism.

Things to keep in mind for prevention

For prevention,
1.Do some light gymnastics and stretching exercises from time to time.
2.drink enough water frequently
3. Avoid alcohol.Quit smoking if possible
4.Wear loose-fitting clothing and don’t wear your belt too tightly
5.Do heel lifting exercises or massage your calves.
6.Elevate your legs when you sleep
Let’s do something like that.

From the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare Economy Class Syndrome page

10 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake, as part of earthquake disaster prevention measures

How to prevent economy class syndrome

what i can do

What we can do to prepare for an earthquake (disaster) is limited at an individual level.I think it is limited to deciding where to meet as a family, purchasing non-perishable food, and preparing disaster prevention goods. I also have a family of four, and that’s about all the disaster preparedness we have right now.

What can you do in advance as a judo therapist (work)?

When I thought about it, I came up with the idea of ​​disseminating information on how to prevent economy class syndrome, an earthquake-related disease, as stated in the title of this article.
In fact, when I was in Kumamoto myself, I worked with my fellow teachers to stretch and massage the lower limbs of people who were sleeping in cars or at evacuation centers. Although some people were actively doing it, the majority had only heard about it to some degree and only a small minority knew about prevention methods. I think what we can do before an earthquake (disaster) is to tell you about prevention methods in advance.

There are various measures, but the basics are to promote blood flow in the body.

1.Do some light gymnastics and stretching exercises from time to time.
2.drink enough water frequently
3. Avoid alcohol.Quit smoking if possible
4.Wear loose clothing and don’t wear your belt too tightly
5.Do heel lifting exercises or massage your calves.
6.Elevate your legs when you sleep

There are measures such as those mentioned above, but among them, what you can do in the event of an earthquake (disaster) is

Do gymnastics and stretching

That’s all. As for other things, everyone is doing it if they can.
Not being able to drink enough water or being restricted in where you sleep can increase your risk of developing economy class syndrome, so the best thing you can do is to do exercises and stretches to promote blood flow in your body. is.

Walking and radio exercises are also effective.

The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare’s website seems to place emphasis on promoting blood flow in the calves, especially from the knees down, but doing whole body exercises such as radio calisthenics also promotes blood flow, so you should have the mental space to walk. Walking is also effective if you have the means.

Stretch your whole body, especially your lower body

Stretching can also promote blood flow!
I think it’s best to do a full body stretch. For those who are sleeping in their cars or in evacuation centers, focusing on the lower body is effective in preventing economy class syndrome!

Specific stretches and exercises

Stretching, which is published on the channel I run as a way to quickly heal muscle pain, can also be introduced as a preventive measure against economy class syndrome in that it improves blood flow to the lower body.
