5 steps to stop plantar fasciitis (slideshow)

Playing the Piano

Start with your foot and all the toes flat with equal weight on the inside and outside of the foot. Raise your big toe. Keeping the big toe up, raise up the second toe to join it. Then add the third toe, the fourth, and finally, your little toe. Try to make each toe come up separately. Once all your toes are up off the floor, start putting them back down one at a time starting with the little toe. Keep rippling them up, and then down, like someone playing scales on a piano.

Don’t let foot pain make every step a misery. Spend more time barefoot and use the exercises above to strengthen the core muscles of your feet to fight plantar fasciitis and get moving again.
