- Best Practices for Preventing Ankle Re-Injury
Here at Advanced chiropractic & Rehab Center, where we specialize in sports injury rehabilitation, we treat all different severities of ankle sprains. The most common thing people do when treating an ankle injury is R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compress, Elevate). However, how often do you injure the same ankle over and over again? Do you ever wonder why?
When you receive treatment here at our Encino chiropractic and rehab center, we eliminate the reoccurrence of injury by implementing 3 of my (Dr. Patrick Khaziran) fundamental principles:
- Scare Tissue
- Proprioception
- Strengthen
After you sprain your ankle your body naturally lays down scare tissue to aid the healing process. Unfortunately scare tissue limits the active range of motion and flexibility of the joint, in turn, this causes the joint to re-aggravate. Here at our Encino chiropractic and rehab center we use the Graston Technique to help break up any scare tissue your body has laid down due to the injury. We also perform therapeutic exercises to help with proprioception (balance) to strengthen the ligaments and tendons, as well as exercises to strengthen the muscles around the ankle.
Our sports injury clinic has treated ankle sprains from 9 year old children to NBA players with this method and all of our patients had great outcomes as far as healing times and a less chance of a re-injury. Visit our Sports Injury Clinic Portfolio
