3. The Ankle Rotator
The ankle rotator technique targets both ankle mobility and foot circulation. While seated, gently lift one foot off the ground and rotate your ankle in slow, controlled circles. Begin with clockwise rotations for 30 seconds, then switch to counterclockwise. This exercise improves blood flow to the feet and loosens the ankle joints. You can perform this movement discreetly during meetings or while working at your computer. The key is to maintain smooth, fluid motions and alternate feet every few minutes. This technique is particularly helpful for those who experience ankle stiffness or swelling from prolonged sitting. Regular ankle rotations can help prevent common foot and ankle issues associated with sedentary office work.
