Foot pain is commonly experienced by those who stand for long periods of time in uncomfortable shoes. This is why it is beneficial to perform foot exercises to alleviate the stresses and pains from standing all day. One of the best ways to exercise your feet is by doing ball rolls. To perform this exercise, you will need to sit down in a chair and put a tennis ball beneath your foot. Next, move the ball back and forth between your heel and the ball of your foot for thirty seconds. Another exercise you can do is a foot flex. This is done by sitting down, crossing your legs, and sliding your fingers between your toes. Afterward, rotate your ankles in a circle before flexing your foot in both directions. This exercise should be done for approximately one minute on each foot.

Exercising your feet regularly with the proper foot wear is a great way to prevent injuries and build strength. If you have any concerns about your feet, contact Dr. Kevin H. Lapoff from Lake Worth Podiatry. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.

Exercise for Your Feet

Exercise for your feet can help you gain strength, mobility and flexibility in your feet. They say that strengthening your feet can be just as rewarding as strengthening another part of the body. Your feet are very important, and we often forget about them in our daily tasks. But it is because of our feet that are we able to get going and do what we need to. For those of us fortunate enough to not have any foot problems, it is an important gesture to take care of them to ensure good health in the long run.

Some foot health exercises can include ankle pumps, tip-toeing, toe rises, lifting off the floor doing reps and sets, and flexing the toes. It is best to speak with Our doctor to determine an appropriate regimen for your needs. Everyone’s needs and bodies are different, and the activities required to maintain strength in the feet vary from individual to individual. 

Once you get into a routine of doing regular exercise, you may notice a difference in your feet and how strong they may become.
