What We Treat — South Surrey, BC

Ankle Sprain Treatment

Ankle sprains are among the most under-rehabbed injuries — up to 40% develop chronic instability without proper treatment.

What it is

Understanding ankle sprain treatment

Ankle sprains are among the most under-rehabbed injuries — up to 40% develop chronic instability without proper treatment. Good early rehab prevents years of 'weak ankles' and re-sprains.

Common symptoms

  • Pain and swelling around the ankle
  • Bruising after the injury
  • Difficulty weight-bearing or walking
  • A feeling of instability or giving way
  • Recurring sprains from minor missteps

Common causes

  • Rolling the ankle on uneven ground or landing
  • Sport-related cutting and jumping
  • Previous sprains that were never rehabbed
  • Balance and proprioception deficits
  • Calf and ankle weakness

How we treat it

Our approach at Mvmt Theory

Early treatment manages swelling and restores movement; the crucial phase is what follows — balance retraining, strengthening, and progressive return to running and sport. This is the part most people skip, and it's exactly what prevents the next sprain.
