Are you experiencing foot pain or discomfort? It could be due to misalignment in your feet. Poor foot alignment can cause problems not just in your feet, but also in your knees, hips, and back.

Fortunately, there are some simple moves you can do to help align your feet and improve your overall posture and balance.

1. Toe Spread

Start by sitting on a chair or on the floor with your feet flat on the ground. Lift and spread your toes as wide as you can, then release. Repeat this movement 10 to 15 times to loosen up the muscles in your feet.

This exercise can help improve the flexibility of your toes and the muscles in your feet.

2. Arch Stretch

Stand facing a wall and place your hands on the wall at shoulder height. Step back with one foot behind the other. Keep the back heel down on the ground and bend the front knee. Hold this position for 30 seconds, then switch sides.

This stretch can help lengthen and strengthen the muscles in your arches.

3. Calf Stretch

Find a step or a raised surface, and stand with the balls of your feet on the edge of the step. Let your heels hang off the back of the step and gently press your heels down towards the ground. Hold for 30 seconds, then release.
