Release Pain in the Calves, Feet, or Ankles (36 min)

Happy Body - A Wellness Podcast

This is a simple movement exercise to help relieve pain in the feet, ankles and calves/shin area. These body parts are the most distant part of the body from the brain. As a result, we sometimes unconsciously treat them like distant cousins or, in the worst case, complete strangers. Many people are so disconnected from their feet that without looking they aren’t even sure what their foot's position is in space or angle is relative to their legs. When we become estranged from a part of our bodies, all sorts of problems can arise. At a simple level, we see people walking in a uneven or unfamiliar terrain looking down at their feet and having to take over some manual control of their feet placement. In the worst case, you see feet (metaphorically speaking) become so upset by their abandonment that they cry out in pain for no apparent reason. Whether it is a simple injury, a serious trauma or something chronic like CRPS (Complex regional pain syndrome) RSI/RSD (Repetitive stress disorder/repetitive strain injury), Plantar fasciitis, fallen arches, flat feet, pronation or whatever else, this movement therapy will help relieve the pain. This is a 36 minute version of the Release Pain the Claves, Feet, or Ankles exercise.
