Physiotherapy can assist with active and passive toe movements.

Such movements frequently reported in medical literature include undulating toe movements, unusual facial movements, abnormal body posturing, respiratory-like movements, hugging-like motion, eyelid opening, head turning, limb elevation with neck flexion and other spinal reflexes.
Here, we should like to add that a detailed analysis of the feet and toe movements would go far beyond the goals of the present study.
Task-based fMRI: participants were visually instructed to move their left/right hand (finger movements), left/right arm (elbow movements), feet (bilateral toe movements) or lips.
Much work remains to be done in the field of active sensory-guided limb movements, which involve complex coordination of sensory inputs (visual, auditory, vestibular, somatosensory) as well as multiple sources of efference copy signals (saccades, smooth eye movements, face and lip movements, neck movements, limb movements, finger and toe movements).
Ankle and toes movements elicited the same extend of MR signal change in the majority of the examined brain regions, whereas knee joint movement was associated with a different pattern.
Ankle flexion and toes movements are expected to become impaired throughout the course of the disease.
Do heel-to-toe movements with your feet.
