Ankle & Foot rehab
Some eversion is completely normal, in fact - we need it. But too much can create pain and instability. Unfortunately, this has been the case for one my long term clients. Brenden has recently begun using ankle and foot orthoses, so we are focusing on strengthening up the entire foot and ankle complex.
Here’s some examples of the progression we have followed;
1️⃣ Big toe band resisted flexions
2️⃣ Towel scrunches
3️⃣ Calf raises with big toe in extension
4️⃣ Assisted ballerina squats
5️⃣ Assisted penguin marches
6️⃣ Sideways sled drags
7️⃣ Sled pushes - before & after cueing through the big toe
The goal: strengthen the foot, calf, and ankle, retrain movement patterns, and build a stable foundation for pain-free movement.
