Keep Your Feet Fit and Stop the Pain!

Here’s a question for you:  How many hours a day do you spend on your feet?  If you work in an office at a desk, it will be significantly less than a construction worker.  But think about it, you still spend at least a couple hours on your feet everyday through walking around at your job, at the store, at home.  The more you get out of the chair and walk around the better, but you still need to do your job.  The point -  people spend a lot of time on their feet. Though you might not think about it, you need to keep your feet fit!

If you go to our website, you’ll find a page named “Exercise Those Toes!”  On that page, you will see a list of exercises you can do to strengthen your toes and feet in general.  These exercises are especially recommended for people who experience toe cramps, plantar fasciitis, hammertoes, arch pain, and foot cramps. Follow these exercises exactly and do them regularly.  Start doing them twice a week, then work up to doing them every other day.  After you get comfortable, push yourself to do these exercises every day.  You could make it a routine to do right before you go to bed. Even better would be to do them right in the morning, getting your feet ready for the day.

It you need help figuring out how to do these exercises, contact Houston Foot Specialists.  Dr. Bowman would like to help and make sure you are doing the exercises correctly to provide the best results.  By getting your feet fit, you’ll strengthen your feet so that you will have less foot cramps and less foot pain in general.  Don’t put it off any longer!
