True. This is true not only for the feet but also
for the upper extremities or the arms. Poor circulation is often caused by the
heart's inability to pump blood efficiently to the entire body system. This
usually happens when a person is experiencing a particular disease or condition;
it could also occur when a person is exposed to extreme cold. This causes the
blood vessels to constrict causing the failure of the blood to circulate
throughout the whole body system.
Poor circulation in the feet can be remedied by elevating the area to let
gravity do the extra work in returning the blood back to the heart to be circulated
again.
