Guest guest Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 , I work with a lot of women who have plantar fascitis, and have a great exercise you can do to help it if you can find a round balance board. Sit in a chair with it the board in front of you. Place one foot in the center of the board. Roll your ankle around in a circle like you are trying to touch the edge of the board to the floor, one section at a time, trying to make the whole circle. Repeat in the opposite direction then change feet and do it again. About 5 circles in each direction is optimal. This helps stretch out the ligaments and tendons that cause the discomfort.
