Towel Stretch. To do this stretch, take a towel and put your foot firmly on one end, holding the other in your hands. Pull upwards to stretch all of your toes, stretching out the plantar fascia at the same time. This exercise can be repeated a few times.<\/p>\n
\nPlantar fasciits stretches are important for the flexibility and range of motion of the lower leg, ankle and foot muscles. Good flexibility around the ankle and foot allows for unrestricted, pain free movement of the ankle, foot and arch.<\/p>\n
\nRepeat each side 2X. This stretch relieves tightness in the plantar fascia, targeting the area around the top of the foot and toes. Step the ball of your foot and toes onto the center of your block. Lift the heel up high to start to feel a stretch through the toes and plantar fascia. To deepen the stretch, slowly shift your weight forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
