Nice book collection
Thanks! Physical therapy NEVER gets into this...it's all about PULLING straps and leaning into walls! I have an ankle mobilization problem in one foot especially, so I'm going to start this specific routine every day... it feels so good and I think it's going to help me a lot!!
Excellent! Recovering from a broken ankle and lateral tendon tears. I've been using self massage since the cast came off and was ready for something more specific. This was perfect.
I wish I knew this routine years ago. My ankles are pretty beat up due to playing football in college. I suffered peroneal tendon subluxation and was able to make a great recovery because my trainer was awesome but this would have been a major plus.
I actually have a recent video on peroneal massage: czcams.com/video/Pkb5n__o_t4/video.html

You are my self-message authority. Thank you.
Love it! Thanks for that, Joseph :)
You are a godsend. You should publish a book with all your techniques.
Thanks so much! I will consider your suggestion :)
OMG this was GREAT! Thank you!!! Huge difference between the massaged ankle and the not-massaged ankle by the end of the video.
I tried this, and my other ankle felt like a lead weight compared to the one I massaged.
I'm so grateful I found this video, I have to be to work in a couple hours and my ankle has been giving me a great deal of pain the last few days. I have total mobility now that I followed this short video! Thank you. I'm anxious to see how this holds up during my shift.
I'm so glad it helped, Robin! I hope your ankle is feeling much better.
@@rachelrichardsmassage9660 my right ankle I can't move it in some the ways you rotated your. I was born with a club foot on my right side. It hurts every day it's something I live with. Is there anything massaging may reduce pain I can do?
Excellent and useful for runners 🏃♀️ thankyou x
You are literally a gift from God! Wow did this help!!
She is like the Bob Ross of massage.
I love your video. It is so much helpful. Everyday I do your massage technique. I want to see diaphram massage and biceps & deltoid massage. These are my stiff spot.
I'm so glad you find my videos helpful. Thanks so much for the diaphragm, biceps, and deltoid massage videos suggestion! I already shot them and will publish them soon. Stay tuned!
I could use this for a condition that I have very gently I feel.
Thank you so much it relieved my pain with min Thank you again for help
So happy to hear that! Thanks for sharing :)
Thank you again 👍
Thanks. Any massage technique for inflammed ankle area that's safe? It's at the back of that protruding ball on the side.
Keep looking amazing and talents ma'am Rachel.
Thanks for the kind words! It's best to avoid massaging over any area of inflammation.
Thank you I needed this I’m a chef and I’m forever on my feet
I'm so glad it's helpful, Faith! Wish I had some of your talent - I'm a terrible cook :)
What about cat foot massage? 😉 nah, let's be serious, I always look forward to your videos, especially if they are all so useful and in this case so useful for tendants and joints. If I only didn't have so much water down in my legs. But it's the thought that counts. Thank you!

Thank you, and welcome! ❤️
Thank you for this. It may sound strange, but is there any way you can show us how to do the massages from a different closer angle, for those of us that can't bring the knee to the chest but can cross the leg a little and bring the foot to side?
Great suggestion! I will put it on my list. Thank you :)
Ugggg it helps with the pain that my calf’s sometimes have but not my ankle it is probably just me tho 😥
I have a sprain in my ankle and it hurt to bend it, doing this exercise gave me more flexibility in it, thanks for the tips. Still going to use the RICE method, but I was thinking this might help it.
Glad I can offer another treatment tool :)
Thank you for this massage technique! I also did the calf and foot but I still have some pain left on the outside of the foot where (it looks like on Google ;)) the peroneal tendon attaches. A dull and stiff feeling between the heel and the fifth metatarsal on the outside and below the foot. Do you have tips? Again thank you so much for these efforts, subscribed!
Believe it or not, I actually have a self-massage for peroneals: czcams.com/video/Pkb5n__o_t4/video.html
Will this be good for someone that suffers from ankle stiffness from having fibromyalgia? My ankles feel like there sprained constantly and I’m trying to resolve this. Even if I have to keep doing them. I can’t take this any longer.
It could help, and it can't hurt. Why not give it a try?
super exercises helps me a lot can you paint toes
So glad it's helpful!
@@rachelrichardsmassage9660 thank you you are helpful
My stiffness in the ankle affect me every day and is affecting my calf and thighs at night time that I can only sleep on back ,and iam over weight slightly and my walking I think I get pain in the calf knee area ,and can't do long walks because it is affecting my hips .can you help
It's impossible for me to suggest treatment without seeing you and doing an assessment. I recommend you see your doctor.
@@rachelrichardsmassage9660 thanks I went out today and pain just under the knee fibula,tibula I was limping again Sharp pain between the area again plus my feet and hands gets very cold thanks for your advice
Need any oil for massage or dry massage is enough
If your skin is very dry, you can add a drop of lotion. You want to be able to move the tissue. If you put oil on, you'll just slide over the skin.
