This week I’m back with Tom to explore the concept of Ankle Sprains which are one of the most common injuries in the lower limb but are often the least well managed.

Throughout the episode we discuss what an ankle sprain actually is as well as other injuries that may come along with or even be confused with an ankle sprain, we go through the current best practice for managing an acute sprain (spoiler it’s not the RICE method), and we explore what kinds of strategies you should focus on in your rehab process, whether you’ve just had an ankle sprain or if you’ve ever had one in the past.

If you’re struggling to make progress in your rehab, please feel free to reach out as we can either help you directly with our online consultations or can point you in the right direction of other practitioners or resources that can help you.
