Why five minutes matters
Tight calves and stiff plantar fascia are behind the majority of foot pain I see. This short routine keeps them mobile.
The routine
- Calf stretch — wall push, 30 seconds each side.
- Plantar fascia roll — frozen water bottle, 60 seconds each foot.
- Toe yoga — spread and curl toes, 30 seconds.
- Ankle circles — 10 each direction.
- Downward dog pedal — 30 seconds.
Do it right after your morning shower when tissue is warm.
