Study Description
Brief Summary
Ankle joint self mobilization.
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |

|
N/A |
Detailed Description
The intervention would consist in the administration of self mobilization with movement techniques in patients with chronic ankle instability in addition to an exercise program
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: mobilization group this group will receive mobilization with movement techniques. |
Other: mobilization with movement techniques
patient will receive an anteroposterior stimuli in the talus in order to restore the range of motion

No Intervention: Control group The control group will receive no intervention |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- range of motion [from baseline prior to the beginning of the intervention to the completion of the study at four weeks.]
the ankle range of motion will be measured by goniometry.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- dynamic balance [from baseline prior to the beginning of the intervention to the completion of the study at four weeks.]
Dynamic balance will be determined by the star excursion balance test
- Self reported instability [from baseline prior to the beginning of the intervention to the completion of the study at four weeks.]
Self reported instability will be assessed by the Cumberland ankle instability tool
