Keeping the leg straight, lift it until your heel is 4 inches off the bed or wherever you’re lying
Hold it for a few seconds, then relax
Repeat 10 - 15 times several times a day, gradually increasing the number of lifts until you’re doing around 400 a day

The best therapies for this condition are Osteopathy or sports physiotherapy.
