Does your ankle still bother you months after you rolled it? π¦Άπ»
Or maybe it never felt quite the same after that "minor" sprain?
Here's what most athletes don't realize π
Your ankle is responsible for two very important jobs:
π Absorbing force when you land
π Creating force when you push off
When ankle mobility is limited, your body has to find motion somewhere else.
That often means:
𦡠Extra stress on the knee
π Tight calves and Achilles irritation
π Changes in running mechanics
βοΈ Poor balance and stability on one leg
Common symptoms we see:
π Stiffness when squatting or running
π€ Pain on the inside or outside of the ankle
π Feeling unstable during training
π An ankle that keeps getting re-sprained
What causes it?
Most of the time it's not just the ankle itself.
We often find:
𦴠Joint restrictions after old sprains
π§± Scar tissue that limits movement
πͺ Weak foot and ankle stabilizers
π Hip weakness changing how force travels through the leg
At Boro Chiropractic, we assess the entire chain.
We:
π¦Ά Restore ankle motion with adjustments
π€² Improve tissue quality through manual therapy
ππ»βοΈ Strengthen the foot, ankle, and hip so your body can handle load again
Because the goal isn't just to stop your ankle from hurting.
The goal is to help you run, lift, jump, and move confidently without wondering if it's going to flare up again.
If you move, you're an athlete.
And your ankles should be able to keep up with where you're headed. π₯
