HOW TO USE THE EXERCISE SLANT BOARD?

You can use the wood incline slant board to do simple and effective daily routines to stretch important muscles, such as your calf, hamstring, soleus muscles and plantar fascia tissue.

This is especially useful for injury prevention because tight muscles can put you at risk of sustaining sports injury.

Stretching and releasing tight muscles increases your standing endurance and improves your overall quality of life, leading you to having a healthier and improved lifestyle.

The incline slant board comes in 4 adjustable angles - Easy, Moderate, Advance, Difficult. Start from the lowest tier (Easy), and stand on the board for about a couple of minutes each time.

WHAT IS PLANTAR FASCIA AND DOES IT HELP TO DEAL WITH HEEL PAIN?

The plantar fascia is a thick band of rubber-like tissue attaching from your heel to your toes. Plantar fasciitis occurs when there is an overuse of this structure, leading to pain. Plantar Fasciitis can affect one's lifestyle greatly.

Stretching the plantar fascia tissue helps to relieve the tightness of the tissue. In return, it allows the plantar fascia to absorb shock better during weight bearing activities such as running and walking, thereby reducing heel pain.

Standing on the calf stretch exercise board also helps to stretch the Achilles tendon, thereby helping to relieve pain from the scar tissue. By stretching the calf muscles, it will decrease the frequency of reoccurrence of Achilles Tendonitis

WHAT ARE POSTERIOR CHAIN MUSCLES AND WHY DO WE NEED TO STRETCH THEM?

Stretching your posterior chain muscles which includes your calf muscles, hamstring and lower back muscles enables you to stand upright to adopt a better posture. This will help you to relieve back pain from poor standing posture and enable you to stand for longer hours.
