Do you feel like your ankle isn’t quite the same after an ankle sprain? 🤔

Chronic ankle instability is a condition that can lead to prolonged pain and instability after an ankle sprain.

Incorporating hopping exercises into your warm-up can be beneficial, along with checking out the biomechanics and strengthening the muscles around the ankle.

So, if you feel your ankle is taking too long to heal, make an appointment with us to determine your best recovery strategy! 🗓️

If you are experiencing pain, there’s a good chance that you have searched your symptoms online…

However, many conditions can present the same! For example, low back pain mimics osteoarthritis, muscle strains, and tendinopathy.

This is why a thorough examination is important to determine the correct diagnosis (and, therefore, the appropriate treatment).

Is running too slow causing your iliotibial band pain? 🏃‍♀️

The iliotibial band is a band of connective tissue running from the hip to the knee. When it becomes irritated, it causes pain on the outside of the knee.

One risk factor for iliotibial band syndrome is a slower running speed.

The reason is that while running slowly, the contact time with the ground is increased, leading to more compression of the iliotibial band.

Besides evaluating your biomechanics, changing your running gait can be beneficial in treating iliotibial band syndrome. Check out this infographic for more information! ✅ https://bit.ly/3SFbBoG
