3. Toe Stretching Sequence
The toe stretching sequence focuses on improving flexibility and reducing stiffness in the forefoot and toes. Begin by gently grasping each toe individually, starting with your big toe. Rotate each toe gently in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, holding each position for a few seconds. Then, gently pull each toe straight out, feeling a slight stretch in the joint. This helps maintain toe flexibility and prevents stiffness caused by wearing tight shoes. Next, use your fingers to spread your toes apart, holding this position for 10 to 15 seconds. This spreading action counteracts the cramped position many toes experience in shoes throughout the day. Finally, gently interlace your fingers between your toes to enhance circulation and relieve tension between the toe joints.
