Soleus Muscle Stretch

Technique:

• To stretch the soleus muscle, the back leg should be bent
• Place the leg to be stretched behind and lean against a wall keeping the heel down
• A stretch should be felt lower down nearer the ankle at the back of the leg
• If this stretch is not felt then a more advanced version is to place the forefoot of the front leg against the wall with the heel on the floor and push the front knee towards the wall
• Hold for 30-50 seconds repeat 3 times one each leg

How Often?

3 times each side, twice daily
