Cat Cow Exercise
The Cat Cow exercise is a basic exercise working at improving spinal mobility. Slow controlled movement between flexion and extension can help to allow your spine to move better. Furthermore, moving each vertebrae segmentally with a Theraband or other queueing device can further benefit this motion.

    Thanks for the video! I had a tibial plateau fracture last year (under my knee) and after one year while the fracture itself has healed and the knee structure looks relatively good (soft tissues, joint, cartilage etc) I still have knee pain. It's only the left side of my knee that is painful and tight, also I have burning sensation in my quads and even up to my glutes and sometimes in my toes. Could it be possible that my pain is coming from nerve irritation (saphenous nerve) instead of the knee itself? Treatments for knee pain didn't help while taking medications like tramadol which calms the nerves temporarly has helped a lot. What do you think? Thanks in advanced!

    I have had extensive feet operations - still have pain walking as muscle cut in right foot in 2nd toe- definitely it is a shoe problem - there are no shoes made for the shape of the feet - shoes are made for fashion. Where can I get the 'shoe spacers'? I now use a very expensive Italian made walking, hiking shoe with wider toe space - not fashionable though. Message to the shoe makers - make shoes to fit the shape of our feet to protect them in wet, cold weather and over rocky, hard terrains. God bless, Merle.

    I haven't worn toe spacers yet (looking to start doing it) BUT I switched to wearing barefoot shoes over 80% of the time over a year ago, and I've noticed my toe spacing looking more natural gradually and feeling less contact that used to chafe from nails touching the toe next to it etc. Now, what I have realized is that my socks are an issue cause they restrict my toes and causing me to be not as comfortable as i should be in my shoes. With that being said, what are the proper type of socks to wear with barefoot shoes? I've seen the toe socks being suggested, also the Tomi(?) socks typically used with sandals, and what about diabetic/loose socks? Haven't found a wide toe box sock yet.

    • @drdanielbirch

      Going to barefoot shoe can help much more the toe spacers anyways, so you are ahead of the curve. With time the foot can get naturally wider as you have observed. As for socks, toe socks can be a great options and I would suggest. I’m not sure if wide toe box socks is a thing.
