Video Summary
Felix Takachi-Nagy, a physical therapist, explains exercises for Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome at Los Gatos Orthopedic Sports Therapy. These include the short foot exercise to strengthen the arch muscles by elevating the arch and reducing the space between the big toe and heel. This exercise is held for 5 seconds and repeated up to 10 times. Another exercise is the chest slide, targeting the soleus muscle for foot extension and endurance. It involves sliding feet and lifting legs with assisted push-offs. A more challenging single-foot variation targets the gastrocnemius, enhancing muscle flexing innervated by the tibial nerve.
