Exercise for Weak Arches

ton with all his power. The, sec
end person attempts to swing the
foot outward and downward. This
effort on the part Of the second
person II resisted BY the subject.
This exercise Ii carried out from
fifteen to twenty-five times with
each foot twice daily. At no
time should the second person use
as much power as the first. Be-
tween each two Of these exercises
the subject relaxes his foot.
For Transverse Arches.
The following exercises have
been found helpful for cases Of
weakness Of the transverse arch:
DOOR STOP EXERCISE:
Obtain two oldfashioned door
stops 1T hardware store Re
move the rubber tips with . pair
Of nippers. Screw these door stops
into 4 board. about IA inches long,
5 inches wide, and 2 46ches thick.
The board is placed on the floor
and the subject sits on q chair
in front Of it. Each foot is placed
on . door stop with the pressure
just behind the metatarsal bones.
On ! the toes are forcibly curled
down, and on they are slowly
allowed to relax. This is carried
out every night and morning, 60
ing through the exercises until the
subject has counted 200.
MARBLE EXERCISE:
Obtain several sizes OF marbles,
place them on a rug, sit on e
chair. and with the bare toes pick
them, up.
PENCIL EXERCISE:
Place a round pencil on hard
floor and by means of the bare
toes curled downward push and
pull the pencil around the floor.
Use short. quick movements.
For Shortened Heel Tend0ns.
For shortened heel tendons an
exercise Of great value is the fol-
lowing:
Standing about two feet from
a wall, place the palms against
the wall. and allow the back and
hips TO sag in, at all times keeping
the heels on the ground. This
should be done about twenty five
times twice daily, and the distance
from the wall should be increased
gradually. ss the heel tendons
stretch and viii permit.
