Summary

Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is an increasingly prevalent condition among futsal athletes. Mobilization with Movement (MWM) is a conservative rehabilitation strategy commonly used in this condition. Even so, the effects of two MWM dorsiflexion techniques on sports performance are not known. The aim is to analyze the immediate effect of two MWM techniques on the dorsiflexion range of motion, the dynamic balance and the performance variables in futsal athletes with CAI. Also, to analyze the impact of performing them in a different order.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Mobilisation With Movement 1

Application of a sustained passive accessory movement to a joint (talus or fibula) while the patient actively performs a forward lean/lunge that was previously limited. 3 sets of 10 repetitions of a glide applied to the talus were performed, followed by 3 sets of 10 repetitions of a glide applied to the fibula.

PROCEDURE

Mobilisation With Movement 2

Application of a sustained passive accessory movement to a joint (talus or fibula) while the patient actively performs a forward lean/lunge that was previously limited. 3 sets of 10 repetitions of a glide applied to the fibula were performed, followed by 3 sets of 10 repetitions of a glide applied to the talus.

OTHER

Placebo

The Placebo group participants performed the same number of sets and repetitions (6 sets of 20 repetitions) of lean/lunge forward into dorsiflexion, without any glide application.
