Article Abstract:

The training methods for addressing the proprioceptive loss and subsequent balance problems, which are caused from inversion ankle sprain, are discussed. The training activities that include ankle-disk or wobble-board activities help improve single-leg-stance balance and might reduce the likelihood of future sprains.
