Heel Pain Stretch of the Week: Quad/Hip Flexor Stretch

Stand or lie down with your right leg bent. Holding the right foot with your right hand, gently pull the heel towards your buttocks until you feel a stretch in the front of the leg. Keep your upper body straight; do not lean forward. To increase the stretch, pull with enough pressure so that the right knee passes behind the left knee. Reverse legs and repeat.
Hold 30 seconds. Repeat 5 times for each leg, 1 time a day.
If you are experiencing heel pain, call our Rocky Hill or Middletown office to make an appointment.
