Restore comfort and energy by treating chronic venous insufficiency at Core Alliance Vein Specialists, a circulatory condition that weakens leg veins and causes heaviness, swelling, cramping, aching, and visible varicose veins.
What Is Chronic Venous Insufficiency?
Improve Blood Flow and Leg Comfort
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a condition in which the veins in your legs struggle to push blood back toward the heart. When vein valves weaken or fail, blood pools in the legs instead of flowing upward. This pressure leads to symptoms like heaviness, aching, swelling, cramping, fatigue, skin changes, and visible varicose veins. Over time, untreated venous reflux can worsen discomfort and impair your ability to walk, exercise, and remain active.
Signs & Symptoms of Chronic Venous Insufficiency
Chronic venous insufficiency often develops gradually, and many people notice symptoms that worsen throughout the day or after prolonged standing.
Common signs and symptoms include:
- Leg heaviness or aching
- Swelling in the lower legs or ankles
- Cramping, throbbing, or burning sensations
- Fatigue or weakness in the legs
- Visible varicose or spider veins
- Skin discoloration or texture changes
- Itching or irritation around the ankles
- Symptoms that improve with leg elevation

Chronic Venous Insufficiency Treatments at Core Alliance
EVLT/EVLA
Endovenous laser therapy uses targeted laser energy delivered through a thin catheter placed inside the affected vein. The heat gently damages the vein wall, causing it to collapse and seal shut. Once closed, blood is naturally rerouted to healthier veins, improving circulation and relieving symptoms such as pain, heaviness, and swelling without surgery or downtime.
RFA
Radiofrequency ablation treats varicose veins by using controlled radiofrequency heat to close diseased veins from the inside. A small catheter delivers thermal energy along the vein, causing it to shrink and seal. The body then absorbs the closed vein over time, reducing pressure in the legs and easing discomfort with minimal recovery and excellent long-term results.
VenaSeal
VenaSeal uses a medical-grade adhesive to seal faulty veins without heat or anesthesia. The adhesive is delivered through a small catheter and instantly closes the vein, allowing blood to redirect to healthy vessels. Because no thermal energy is used, VenaSeal often results in less post-procedure discomfort and allows you to return to normal activities immediately.
Varithena
Varithena is a specialized foam medication injected directly into diseased veins under ultrasound guidance. The foam displaces blood and irritates the vein lining, causing it to collapse and seal. Over time, the body absorbs the treated vein, improving circulation and reducing visible veins, heaviness, cramping, and swelling without incisions or stitches.
