“Do you feel dizzy when standing up?”
Sometimes the safest way to stand up… is to prepare your body first.
A simple ankle pump movement while lying in bed can help improve circulation and prepare your body before getting up. Just point your toes toward the ceiling and gently paddle your feet for a few seconds.
Small habits like this can help reduce dizziness, improve blood flow, and lower the risk of falls, especially for older adults.
