Foot and Ankle Instability

Foot and ankle instability is characterised by a recurring weakness or giving way of the foot or ankle, often following repeated sprains or injuries. when the ligaments, tendons, or muscles that support the foot and ankle become overstretched or weakened, they lose their ability to provide stability. this can make the foot and ankle more prone to rolling, imbalance, and discomfort, particularly during physical activities or when walking on uneven surfaces.

Symptoms may include frequent sprains, persistent pain, swelling, weakness, or a feeling of unsteadiness when weight-bearing. if left untreated, foot and ankle instability can lead to compensatory movements, increasing strain on the knees, hips, and lower back.

At The Foot Room, we assess and treat foot and ankle instability through our biomechanical pathway, using advanced gait analysis to understand how your body moves. treatment may include custom orthotics, strength and stability exercises, ankle brace recommendations, footwear advice, and rehabilitation techniques to restore control and reduce the risk of further injury. our goal is to help you regain confidence in movement and prevent future instability.
