If you have heel pain and foot pain, especially in the morning, due to plantar fasciitis, then try these exercises.
1. Cross your affected leg over your other leg.
2. Using the hand on your affected side, take hold of your affected foot and pull your toes back towards shin. This creates tension and stretch in the arch of the foot and plantar fascia.
3. Check for the appropriate stretch position by gently rubbing the thumb of your unaffected side left to right over the arch of the affected foot. The plantar fascia should feel firm, like a guitar string.
4. Hold the stretch for a count of 10. A set is 10 repetitions.
Eliminate the heel pain from plantar fasciitis first thing in the morning. The best way to do this is by wearing a night brace, which pre-stretches the plantar fascia in your sole. The Stretch-Away Plantar Fasciitis Night Brace is perfect for this: it’s the most affordable and effective way to avoid getting the morning heel pain when you take your first morning step.
