When your “Dogs are barking!” How to take care of your feet after a long day.

We’ve all been there. You’ve been on your feet all day long and all you want to do is strip of your shoes and have someone massage your poor, aching feet! For all of you that don’t happen to have an on-call masseuse at home, Let me show you a “quick fix”.
Step One:
Grab your favorite water bottle, fill it with warm or cold liquid, whichever you prefer and place it on it’s side on the floor. Place your foot over the bottle and gently roll your foot back and forth using the bottle like a rolling pin. Alternate feet till they both feel the same.
Step Two:
Then, curl your toes into the rug like you are trying to pull up the carpet. This will activate the tendons and rinse out inflammation and residual soreness.
Finally, review ankle exercises part 2 and 3 (http://spinecarefitness.com/category/ankle-pain-care) to incorporate the calf and achilles tendon into your foot repair regime.
You’ll love how it quiets those barking dogs!
