Ankle Sprains

Ankle Sprain Treatment in Perth

Ankle sprains account for approximately 10-30% of all sports injuries, making them the single most common acute sporting injury. Despite their frequency, they are routinely undertreated — producing a recurrence rate of 40-70% and a 40% rate of long-term problems including chronic ankle instability. [1]

The key message: ankle sprains are not minor injuries. Without adequate rehabilitation, the proprioceptive and neuromuscular deficits that develop after a sprain persist for months or years — dramatically increasing the risk of re-injury.

At Move Physiotherapy, we assess and rehabilitate ankle sprains with the same rigour as other significant musculoskeletal injuries — with a structured, progressive programme targeting the mechanical and neuromuscular factors that drive recurrence.

VALD Technology

Technology-Based
Injury Assessment

Included gap-free with every initial assessment.

Move Physiotherapy uses VALD force measurement technology — the same systems used by AFL, NRL and Olympic programs — to objectively measure your strength, symmetry and recovery. This means your physiotherapist can track your progress with clinical precision, making data-driven decisions at every stage of your rehabilitation rather than relying on subjective estimates.

After an ankle sprain, calf and ankle strength and single-leg balance often stay below normal even once the pain has gone, which is a common reason ankles sprain again. VALD testing measures these objectively and compares them with your other side.
