Hi, your Yoga Toes look exactly like Alan's toe flexer thing he got from Harriet Carter. I never thought about putting them in the freezer for a bit.

What a great idea. I shall tell him.

He is still getting good results. I just asked him. He took off the boot (because he's sitting down and not walking around).

I just peeked and he's not shaking his foot.

He explained "yeah, I get a little pain now and then, but it's much better, and if I dont' have to think about it, it's a bonus.

So this will be a work in progress. Finding exactly how much stretching of the toe (or toes), will ultimately do the trick.

At least it's a start.

Wouldn't it be great if they could mold a device to his exact specifications, and he could just put the device between his toes, and they would spread them out and there would no compression???

Don't think that could be a possiblity because feet vary from day to day and toes go into different positions. One position that works right now, might not work tomorrow.

But I am extremely thankful that we have at least latched on to a great idea. It can only get better.

He's going to tell the podiatrist on Wednesday about the cotton balls. Better yet, when the doctor takes off the boot, and the stock, all the cotton balls will go flying. I would love to see the expression on that doctor's face. Bet he never saw that before. lol
