Stretch To Counteract Foot Drop #multiplesclerosis #exercise
Two of main causes for foot drop is spasticity and flaccidity of the muscles in the back of your lower leg. Both of these causes can lead to too much plantarflexion (pointing of the toes). An effective way to counteract plantarflexion is to do a dynamic mobilization of your ankle joint.
SEATED DORSIFLEXION STRETCH - This can be done seated or standing. The key is to keep your foot planted and then BEND YOUR KNEE. As you do this, go slow, hold the stretch for a bit, and don’t worry about how far you can stretch. This drill can be practiced all day long any time you are seated in a chair.
This will help you counteract:
- Foot drop
- Ankle stiffness
- Pain in the ankle and knee
- Poor balance
