Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • ankle range of motion limitation respect the contralateral ankle.
  • At least two episodes of giving way on the affected ankle.
  • Scores of at least 24 in the cumberland ankle instability tool.

Exclusion criteria

Treatment and study plan

mobilization with movement techniques

Other

patient will receive an anteroposterior stimuli in the talus in order to restore the range of motion

Other names: Joint mobilizations

Primary outcomes

  1. range of motion

    Time frame: 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 outcomes

  1. dynamic balance

    Time frame: 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

  2. Self reported instability

    Time frame: 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
