One of the best ways is to cross the legs over at the knee while sitting on a chair and then pulling the toes upwards towards the shin for about ten seconds. Repeat this for a good number of times.

How can you deal with plantar fasciitis when you can't minimize rest?
I had very good results from acupuncture for plantar fasciitis several years ago. Also, make it a point not to let your foot extend out as if pointing with your toes. Try to keep the foot in the normal, 90 degree standing position. This isn't always easy, but stepping on the foot after sitting or lying down will be less troublesome. Sitting in an easy chair with your feet extended out usually results in painful standing, I assume.
What walking shoe should you wear with plantar fasciitis?
A friend of mine reccommended using the NEW BALANCE M1122 sneakers to help with my plantar fasciitis (which I have on BOTH feet). They were expensive - US$ 120.00, which is MUCH more $ than I ever thought I would ever pay for a pair of sneakers ! But I must admit, that there is a HUGE difference when I wear these NB 1122's rather than any other traditional sneaker I have tried. I lace up them up rather tightly, and go out for my usual 3 - 4 mile workout. Even with this short a distance my plantar ligament used to hurt so much that walking that night and the next day was VERY painful. Now, since I have been wearing the NB 1122's, the pain afterwards has been reduced about 75 % ! They work MUCH better than the bulky gel pack orthotic pads that an Orthopedist rescribed for me. I would strongly reccommend these NB 1122 shoes to anyone who has "chronic" plantar fasciitis like I do - well worth the $ investment ED
Minimalist Running with Plantar Fasciitis?
There has been a huge rise in the amount of interest people are showing over supposed "barefoot" running. This running style is often meant to mimic the running style of a person without any shoes on, and is more appropriately termed "minimalist" running when low-drop shoes are used. Many people believe that minimalist running is the cure to a number of different running injuries they used to have, and there is a lot of science behind that claim.One question that is always asked in the minimalist running community is whether it's possible or safe for people with plantar fasciitis to take up minimalist running. After all, the lack of arch support can sometimes be an issue with regular running, so why would it not also be an issue with minimalist running? While there are a number of different stances on this, the general accepted scientific logic about minimalist running with plantar fasciitis is that it isn't just safe, but it can actually be good for your feet. In the very least, it can give you a level of foot strength that you wouldn't otherwise enjoy. There are a number of reasons for this, but a couple stand out above the others.Basically, plantar fasciitis is known as being "flat footed." People with this condition have no arch, and are therefore more prone to things like knee and foot pain when using regular shoes that have no arch support. However, there are studies that have shown the possibility of plantar fasciitis reversal in people that engage in minimalist or barefoot running. This is due primarily to the fact that this style of running engages the tendon in such a way as to make it more taut, which is what creates that distinctive arch in the feet of people without plantar fasciitis.If you decide to try out minimalist running as a possible cure for your plantar fasciitis, it's important that you take it very slow and do a lot of research. Trying to run the same distances in minimalist shoes that you can in "traditional" shoes is almost guaranteed to lead to big injuries-- so take it slow.
