Ankle pain physio Frankston
Restoring confidence after ankle pain or injury
An ankle that feels painful, stiff or unreliable can affect walking and confidence on uneven ground. Ash assesses movement, strength, balance and the tasks you want to return to, with rehabilitation built around your current ability and goals.
What your ankle assessment may include
Ankle symptoms can follow a sudden roll or landing, repeated loading, a change in training, or irritation involving joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles or nearby nerves. Ash will discuss how the problem started and assess relevant movement, swelling, strength, balance and load tolerance.
Treatment and return to activity
Your plan may include education, temporary activity changes, hands-on physiotherapy, mobility work, calf and ankle strengthening, balance training and a graded return to walking, running or sport. If a fracture, major ligament injury or another condition may require medical review or imaging, Ash will explain the next step.
