Happy Halloween! We all know what that means, candy, junk food and that November is here! No shave November starts this holiday season, winter and day light savings. All of those will want to demolish the results you have made and then some.
Our Halloween was a great night of visiting and getting candy. Addison enjoyed playing with all her candy, putting it in her pumpkin bucket but most of all playing with her pumpkin necklace, thanks Beth (it lit up and made noise, cant get much better than that).
Do you ever wake up in the morning with sore feet when you take your first steps? While we sleep all night our feet are pointing down (plantar flexion), when we step out of bed in the morning we flatten our feet (dorsi flexion). Since the facia and muscles on the bottom of our feet where shortened all night when we take that first step we stretch the facia/muscles which can be quite painful.
If you wake up in the morning with foot pain, wear heels, suffer from headaches or want to work on leg flexibility here is a simple stretch to try. Move the tennis ball around until you find a tender spot and then hold for 20-30 seconds and repeat on the other foot.
Have a great rest of your week and happy November.
