Manual Therapy for Ankle SprainsOne of the most common injuries in all of sports is the ankle sprain. A Doctor of Physical Therapy will often use manual therapy techniques to improve mobility to get a sprained ankle (which is injury to the ligaments surrounding the ankle joint) to move freely without pain. This technique requires expert mobilization of the ankle joint and surrounding osseous (bony) structures by a skilled Physical Therapist in directions that are in synch with the normal biomechanics of the human body…such as demonstrated in this video.
