A member asked:
What are the best leg and foot stretches/exercises before heading on a plane for a very long flight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More important: To do the excercises while on the plane not before. Anything is good, walking up and down on tippy toes, extending and flexing the foot while sitting.....The key is to do them on the plane not before.
