How to Tie Your Tennies for Healthy and Happy Feet

“Did you know that you can reduce foot pain by how your shoes are laced? This also affects how well the muscles of the feet work! To keep the arches of your feet lifted and supporting your body, lace your shoes so there is no pressure on the navicular bone (the knobby bump on the top of your foot).

Learn quick and easy exercises for foot care

“Generally speaking, exercise programs target the larger muscles of the body and our feet get forgotten! Cramming your feet into a pair of shoes and going out for a run is not enough to keep healthy and happy feet. Treat each toe as a unique individual! For strong, fit, and flexible feet – the toes, arches, and ankles should all be given the opportunity to workout, individually and together! Take care of your feet and they will last you a lifetime.” Learn quick and easy exercises for foot care you can do at home in the book Fantastic Feet! by Aliesa George.

avoid injury and potential foot pain

“If you wear high heels or dress shoes during the day, and exercise after work, be cautious with the change in shoes and activities. To avoid injury and potential foot pain, take extra time to warm up and stretch your calves, ankles, and feet before beginning any vigorous workout program or high-impact activity.” Explore foot care exercises for athletic feet.

Eliminate your risk for foot pain with exercise

“As you improve foot fitness it’s important to invest in new shoes. Old shoes will reinforce your old posture habits. Evaluate what’s sitting in your shoe closet. If your shoes aren’t helping your feet feel better it’s time to toss them out, or donate worn but not worn-out shoes to your favorite charity. Eliminate your risk for foot pain with exercise, and treat your feet to the support they deserve with good-fitting, comfortable, supportive shoes.”

foot care exercises to help you enjoy happy feet

“Our shoes are engineered to propel us forward, so the muscles of the feet don’t have to work as hard as they should during a workout. For specific foot care exercises to help you enjoy happy feet, find activities you can do barefoot. Do Pilates, take a yoga class, walk around the house, or on the beach, any exercise you can do safely without shoes will help keep your feet fit.”

“Did you know that the strength and flexibility of our feet, ankles, arches, and toes helps to maintain balance and body control when walking on uneven terrain? Avoid twisting or spraining your ankles by practicing rising on your tippy-toes with good alignment and lowering down with control. (ankles centered over the toes – no wobbles.) Stand in front of a mirror to be sure you’re not rolling the feet in or out and can maintain good posture while you work.” For more toe tips and resources for exercising the feet visit Fantastic Feet!

good foot care program

“There is more to improving foot fitness than just stretching the calves! While calf stretches can be very beneficial for healthy feet, ankles, and can also help to reduce lower back pain. There are many other muscles in the lower leg and foot that need to be stretched. Ankle circles and a good foot massage can help you keep fit and flexible feet and are a great addition to a good foot care program that will keep your whole body healthy.”

foot strengthening program

“Did you know that you have 26 bones in the foot! And more than 24 different muscles in the lower leg and foot that all play an important role in the strength and support of the ankles, arches, and toes. Proper use of these muscles assists in the lever action of the foot to propel us forward when we walk and run. Walking & running isn’t enough for well-balanced muscle development for the whole foot. Be confident you’ve got a great foot strengthening program and enjoy the benefits of Fantastic Feet!

Have an experienced Pilates professional work with you to develop an exercise program specific to your goals and needs. By practicing Pilates you’ll learn new daily life habits to keep your whole body healthy and fit.”
