4. The Heel Press
The heel press technique works to release tension in your lower leg and posterior portion of your foot. Press your heel hard into the ground while seated and progressively raise pressure. Spend ten seconds in this posture then release. Lift your heel then, keeping your toes on the ground, to stretch your calf muscle. Those who have plantar fasciitis or heel pain would particularly benefit from this practice, which can be done all during the day. Alternating short, light presses with longer, steady pressure improves the technique. This variation helps your feet’s several pressure points and muscle groups be stimulated. When combined with good posture, the heel press is especially successful and may be done without bringing attention to oneself or removing shoes.
