Heel raises

Stand on a step or book, with your heels hanging off of the edge. Hold onto a counter, chair, or handrail to help with balance. Raise up onto your toes, and slowly lower your heel. Start with both feet at the same time. Then, when you can, do 1 leg at a time. You can also place a towel under your toes. Repeat 10 to 15 times, 1 to 3 times each day.
