What does an ankle physio do?

An ankle physio helps diagnose and treat injuries such as sprains, instability, tendon injuries and post-surgical recovery. Treatment includes manual therapy, balance and strength training, mobility work and a tailored rehab plan to support safe return to activity.

How long does it take to recover from an ankle sprain?

Mild sprains can heal within 1–2 weeks, while moderate to severe ligament injuries may take 4–8 weeks or longer. Physio helps accelerate healing and reduce the risk of recurring sprains by rebuilding ankle stability and function.

Can physio help with chronic ankle instability?

Absolutely. If your ankle feels weak or gives way often, physio can help retrain your balance and proprioception, strengthen key muscles, and correct movement patterns. This reduces your risk of future injury and builds confidence in your ankle again.
