- Sit where you can comfortably stretch your leg out. The knee does not need to be straight.
- Start with the ankle fully flexed (dorsiflexion). Slowly articulate smoothly through all the segments of the foot and then toes until fully pointed (plantarflexion).
- Lift and spread your toes back up and then slowly reverse the articulation back to your maximum dorsiflexion.
- Do it at least 10 times, encouraging your foot to lengthen and free up through all the small joints.
- Do the same on the other leg.
