Self Massage Techniques for Feet in High Heels

Video Transcript

"Hi! I'm Angela on behalf of expertvillage.com, and right now I'm going to show you a self massaging technique for people who wear heels to work or in their daily routine. When you wear heels, your calf muscles actually shorten by the time you've been wearing them for 5-6 hours. What I'm going to do is take off these heels. Just sit on the floor. I have my legs bent. I'm going to grip my ankle. Put a light grip around it and then with my thumb put pressure for 5 seconds right above it and then move up. You'll feel pressure on your muscle becuase it's been strained all day. This will bring your muscle back to normal. You just want to continue to do this. It's 5 seconds amount of pressure and apply it all the way up to your knee. This is a great self massaging for people to wear heels all day because we all know that are feet are extremly sore at the end of our shift. Okay, then you want to apply that to the other leg and then you're finished. "
