Flat Feet Exercise Program
Quick Answer: Flat feet exercises focus on intrinsic foot muscles. Daily: short foot exercise, toe yoga, single-leg balance, calf raises, and arch doming. Do 2 sets of 15 reps each, twice daily.
Short Foot Exercise
The cornerstone — pull the ball of the foot toward the heel without curling toes. This activates the intrinsic foot muscles that support the arch.
FAQ
Can exercises raise my arch?
In flexible flat feet, yes — modest improvement. Rigid flat feet need orthotics or surgery.
