Toe Mobility

Your toes should be able to move with as much dexterity as your fingers! “Toe Yoga” is a great way to start improving this!

If your sport involves running, you NEED to be able to have good control of your feet! This is the first part of your body to contact the ground and it provides your brain information on where you are and what you’re doing. 

A common theme I see in foot injuries such as plantar fasciitis, bunion pain, neuromas, etc… is the inability to control the foot muscles. 

Here is a routine to try out and see if you can improve your toe mobility!

1️⃣ Big toe life, the other four on the ground.

2️⃣ Four-toe lift, the big toe on the ground. 

1️⃣ Big toe tap, the other four in the air.

1️⃣Four-toe tap, big toe in the air. 

1️⃣ Pinky Toe Wave 

1️⃣ Big Toe Crunching
