Exercising the feet may seem trivial, but in reality, it is very important. The feet are the foundation upon which the entire body stands, and they support your weight all day, allowing you to be mobile and complete your daily activities. Practicing foot exercises can keep your feet strong and flexible, which can reduce foot and ankle pain, decrease muscle soreness, prevent injuries, and keep you healthy and active. You may want to choose a foot exercise regime that focuses on increasing your range of motion, improving your flexibility, and strengthening the muscles of the feet. If you have existing foot pain, an injury, arthritis, diabetes, or any other foot condition, it is suggested that you speak with a podiatrist prior to starting an exercise program.

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 one of our podiatrists from Sutera and Jones Surgical Podiatry. Our doctors 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 doctors 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.
