Regardless of tape, glue, inserts, or orthotics, pay attention to your feet! To be the best I can be on the ice, means supporting & strengthening my feet off-ice.
The podiatrist who made my orthotics (my previous podiatrists and orthopedic surgeon, too), scolded me to always wear orthotics or good, supportive shoes. The podiatrist that made my skating orthotics, also makes orthotics for gymnasts (wears no shoes when performing). The reason is to support the foot when it's not trying to balance on the beam, to strengthen it/get it perfect for when they have to perform. The podiatrist said, "(Neverdull44), we want you to get to the ice rink in the best foot shape possible.)"
Wear the best shoes you have, especially right now. Wear your tennis/running shoes off-ice to heal your feet. Tell family members what you want for Christmas, gift certificates for good shoes. I usually don't wear flip flops or go barefoot, as those are against Dr.'s instructions. New Balance tennis shoes (many times with my orthotics for tennis shoes), the orthopedic Crocs, Finn sandals, & Ecco shoes/sandals (outlet stores), are the best shoes I've found. Dr. Scholls tennis shoes (bought a pair at Walmart) were cheap & excellent too. As are the "ugly", old person sandals that look like the Finns. Sometimes for dress, I will wear Bandalino or Naturalizer heels when dressing up. I am actually OK in a 3 inch heel if it's in a supportive shoe. Oh, and I LOVE my Kenkoh message house shoes. I can't say ENOUGH about those and how happy I am with them.
I also have specific stretches. These are "whole body" stretches, but the physical therapists had me doing these types of stretches after my plantar issues and ankle surgery. I do them every day before I skate, at the rink. I usually do about 5 of each.
1) Upward dog/snake. It stretches the front of the ankle like no other. It also stretches my back.
2) Downward dog. It stretches the calf muscles and plantar (goes through the arch) and gives one that 30ish degree achilles stretch. It also stretches & strengthens my whole body which is an added bonus (efficiency).
3) Ankle circles
At home, I practice
4) picking up objects with my toes (towels, coins, pencils, toy cars . . . alot of toy cars in my house)
5) icing my feet by rolling the arch on a frozen water bottle.
Oh, and I have to really watch my weight. Less weight = less stress on the feet. That's a challenge at 46 years old!
