Get you patient to sit comfortably on a chair with bare feet placed on the floor below their knees.
Exercise 1.
Seated Toe Extension with planted heel.
Slowly commence elevation of the foot and toes while the heel remains on the ground. Very poor dorsiflexion is the norm. It will take several weeks to improve the range of motion. The range can be dramatically improved by mobilisation and manipulation of the midfoot and tarsal joints.

How: Hold the foot up for 10 seconds. Warn the patient that cramping may occur. After 10 seconds relax the foot by placing it on the floor and perform the same exercise on the opposite foot. Repeat for 6 times to make 1 set.

A set should be repeated at least 4 times a day.

Step 1. To perform this exercise, while side lying with feet, back and buttocks flat against a wall, tummy pulled inwards. Take a breath in while holding your stomach in.

Step 2. Slowly raise your upper leg as far as possible. The body positioning is everything. The reason why you need to be flat against the wall is to stop your body rolling backwards to assist the weak gluteal muscles. Perform this exercise 5 times. The stronger the gluteals the easier it becomes. This exercise takes effort. Some patients develop pain when lifting their leg. This eventually disappears with repetitions and time.

This exercise is used to stretch the gluteal muscle in this case, the right gluteals.
Step 1. Kneel onto the floor and then assume the ‘all 4’s’ position.

Step2. Now move your right knee as far forward as possible while keeping your left knee at 90 degrees. See photograph.

Step 3. Now while bending forward, move as far as your gluteals will allow.
With time one will move further forwards.
Hold the position for 10 seconds and then relax. Repeat this 5 more times.
Repeat the exercise 5 times a day for a good outcome.

Step 1.
Cross your right foot over the left foot.

Step 2.
Slowly start to bend over in an attempt to tie up your shoe laces.
Hold for 10 seconds and then relax. Repeat 4 times more.
Repeat the exercise as often as possible throughout the day.

How:
Stand with feet about 10cms (4 inches) apart.
Elevate the insides of your feet. This is called supination of the foot.
Once you have stood still for 10 seconds, begin to walk across the room.
The aim is to be able to walk 15 metres in this fashion.

The aim is to stretch the muscles on the outside of the lower leg. These are called the peroneal muscles.
Not only will this exercise stretch these muscles it will also strengthen them.
