Calf Raises Stand next to a chair, counter or wall. Stand on your tip toes, lifting your heels as high as you can. Relax your heels back down to the ground. 10 - 12 repetitions. EXERC I SE ESSENT I ALS USE THIS EXERCISE TO STRENGTHEN CALVES as my primary Physio, but any of the multiple Physiotherapists to choose from are excellent! I have been provided with many supportive treatment options to increase the healing process, like emailed home workouts with instruction and pictures, the PEMF machine in clinic and the private gym for my one on one strength and conditioning. The process for continued care is thorough and effective for great healing results. The family run clinic is top notch, professionally run, and all staff are very personable. You can feel the genuine care and concern from all members of the team! I owe the team my gratitude and sincere thanks for their continued support keeping me mobile and healthy! The team at Concept are outstanding! - Marianne S.
