Ankle Self Mobilization

The patients begins one foot forward and a few inches away from the wall. The patient supports himself against the wall with his hands. With the heel staying in contact with the floor, bring the knee forward so it touches the wall (ankle dorsiflexion). Repeat 10 times with each foot. Gradually work the feet back after each set, paying particular attention to symmetry. If one knee fails to reach the wall from a distance that the other reaches easily, continue working to bring that ankle up to par. DO NOT work the more mobile ankle at a greater distance than the less mobile one. Download Ankle Self Mobilization   [jwplayer player=”1″ mediaid=”1382″]
