Description:

Five of the best exercises you can do to improve ankle mobility and flexibility. Dr Jared Beckstrand leads you through these simple ankle exercises you can do with zero equipment to increase range of motion and decrease tightness/stiffness at your ankle. ➡️ LINK TO JARED’S ELASTIC BANDS (aff): Our ankles are designed to be a very mobile joint. They move in three different planes of movement to help us walk, run, stand, and do every other weight-bearing activity. But when your ankle is injured, or tight, or stiff, and it’s not moving the way it’s supposed to, suddenly those movements can become very painful or tedious. This can happen as a result of a foot or ankle sprain, a foot or ankle fracture, period of ankle immobilization, chronic ankle injuries, or numerous other pathologies. It’s important that we keep our ankles nice and mobile to enjoy full pain-free function. These are the exercise that I recommend to help get you there! Not only do I recommend these exercise to patients in my clinic every single day, I’m actually performing all of them right now as well! I’ve been cleared to start to rehab my foot/ankle after breaking my 5th metatarsal and my first line of defense is improving my ankle mobility. I know these can be incredibly effective and I hope you find them useful along your journey to wellness.
