📚Ankle sprains are one of the most common orthopedic conditions and can lead to long-term impairments including ongoing pain, stiffness and gait abnormalities in as many as 72% of individuals. Furthermore, nearly 80% of those individuals who suffer a sprain are likely to experience reinjury.

👉Low ankle sprains can subdivided into inversion and eversion types with inversion sprains accounting for approximately 80% of cases. When excessive inversion of the foot occurs, the 3 lateral ligaments of the ankle are put under strain.

🔎Eversion, the opposite of inversion, is less likely to produce a sprain because of the dense medial ligament known as the deltoid ligament.

✅The ankle chapter in my book includes a comprehensive ankle sprain program that guides you through three phases of rehab. Comment ‘book’ in the comments section and I will send you a link you can use to get a copy of my book.

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) controls all the involuntary processes that keep you alive and functioning:

Sympathetic Nervous System: ‘Fight or Flight’ – increases heart rate, dilates pupils, and prepares your body for action.

Parasympathetic Nervous System: ‘Rest and Digest’ – slows heart rate, promotes digestion, and calms the body.

Enteric Nervous System: The ‘second brain’ of your gut, regulating digestion.

Our 3D animation illustrates how these systems maintain balance without conscious effort.
