- Improving posture: Strengthening the foot muscles has positive effects on posture and can help correct poor posture.

Recognizing kinked feet: Symptoms and causes
A flat foot is a foot deformity in which the arch of the foot is lowered and the midfoot tilts inwards. It is often mentioned together with flat foot, which is also characterized by a flattened arch. Typical symptoms are pain in the feet, knees and back, usually caused by inadequate foot support and poor posture. You can recognize a flat foot yourself by taking a closer look at the shape of your feet: If your feet appear very flat or the inner edge is clearly pointing inwards, this could be a clue. Your gait can also provide clues: If you sway when walking or feel like you are twisting your ankle frequently, these are further signs. If you notice such symptoms or are unsure, it makes sense to observe your foot position and movements closely and consult a specialist if necessary.
Why can exercises help?
You can stabilize the arch of your foot with targeted exercises if you have fallen arches. A mix of muscle training and sensory exercises can help. However, it is important to know the exact cause of the kinked foot, as not all problems can be solved by exercises alone. For example, weak tendons can be strengthened, but if the tendon damage is serious, additional measures are required. If you suspect that you have fallen arches, you should definitely consult a specialist. They will be able to make an accurate diagnosis and recommend suitable treatment.
Four effective exercises for more stability and relief from kinked feet
To alleviate discomfort associated with a kinked foot, it is important to integrate practical exercises into your everyday life.
- Start with foot circles, for example: Sit comfortably and move your foot in a circular motion to promote mobility and flexibility. You can do this exercise anytime and anywhere.
- Another effective exercise is calf raises: stand upright, lift your heels and balance on your toes to strengthen the muscles in your calves.
- Alternatively, you can practise the toe stand, where you press your toes into the floor and lift your heels - this also helps to strengthen the foot muscles.
- Stretching exercises for the feet, such as stretching the toes or stretching the calf muscles, also support flexibility.
To ensure that you do these exercises regularly, you could schedule fixed times in your daily routine, for example in the morning after getting up or in the evening while watching TV. By integrating these simple exercises into your daily routine, you can not only alleviate your symptoms, but also prevent future problems.
