As a dancer who wants to improve her ankle strength for ballet this helps a lot thank you!💗

Kristie - standing on one foot when brushing your teeth is very good training .It is also a big help if you get sciatic pain as you lean forward from the hip.😊

Thank you for the tips, big difference in strength and what feels like blood flow in just a couple of weeks.

These exercises worked beautifully and helped me finally recover from an avulsion fracture and a sprain. Best part is this worked better than the PT I was paying for! Thankyou!!

Hi Kristie and thanks for all your beautiful content and your good and kind spirit!

Im dealing with some wear and tear changes in my right ankle, confirmed by an mri. I was wondering if you've had some wear and tear ankle changes for a long time and can still manage to live an active and full life without overwhelming pain and the ankle clouding too many things.

Essentially I'm looking for inspiration regarding this ankle journey and to see examples of it being possible to live ones life without it clouding everything.

All the best

Doctor KristieI wish you had included a disclaimer about attaching to a folding chair. This is the first exercise i thinkI need to wear a helmet. I pulled the chair on me, but quickly changed the spot where I attached my band. Great work out and made me move faster than I have in a while

Tqvm doctor, I just fell into a ravine bruising my left ankle leading to swelling.now Ur ex just complement my recovery.tq for sharing and gbu

Dr. Ennis. I failed the portion of my last pre-employment physical where I had to balance on 1 foot for 30 seconds. I use a spring loaded balance pole and balance strap suspended from the doorway. It gives me some stability, but also makes me adjust more than using a wall mounted bar.

[janlasalle]

thank you so much...I need this as an aging dancer

[mikes]

I have a wobble board….. and it does a good ankle workout … 🙂👍

[Beardiebiker]

Absolutely brilliant. One for my patients. Are you considering to the UK soon?

[RaeBaeLove]

This method took away the pain fast. I can wear sneakers with the tape and the retrocalcaneal bursitis doesn’t hurt as much. I can finally take walks again too. Thanks a lot!!!

[davidreay]

This, I need. Years ago I jumped out of a truck right onto uneven ground and my ankle twisted but didn't break. Seems like it stretched the tendon. So it's my weak spot.

[bizzhat]

super important video. thanks!
Question: how sturdy/healthy would the ...any ankle need to be to do said exercises? (so that it doesnt hurt, rather is there a limit of how long after an ankle injury one should wait before any exercises?)
