4. Arch Support and Recovery
Since it keeps equilibrium when wearing heels, the arch of the foot calls particular attention.Working from the heel toward the ball of the foot, start by firmly pressing along the arch using your thumbs.Use both hands to alternately squeeze and release the arch muscles in a “milking” approach, therefore increasing blood flow and lowering tension.Focus especially on the band of tissue running around the bottom of your foot—the plantar fascia.Deep tissue massages in a cross-fiber pattern using your knuckles assist break down any adhesions that could have developed.Those who wear high heels should especially benefit from this approach in terms of avoiding and treating plantar fasciitis, a prevalent ailment.
