Recovering from Heel Pain: Stretches, Rest & Support
Heel pain can interrupt your routine and make every step uncomfortable. To recover faster, combining rest, stretching, and proper support is essential. This post shares actionable tips and product support to ease your healing journey.
Essential Stretches & Mobility Moves
- Wall Calf Stretch: Place hands on a wall, step back one leg, and keep heel down for 30 seconds per side.
- Plantar Fascia Stretch: Sit, cross your leg, and pull toes toward your shin. Hold for 20–30 seconds.
- Toe Curls: Use a towel underfoot and curl toes toward you to engage arch muscles.
- Foot Rolls: Roll the arch over a tennis ball or foam roller to ease tension.
The Role of Rest & Load Management
