Ankle pain and instability are often caused by weakness, limited mobility, or poor mechanics after sprains, overuse, or long periods of compensation. Physical therapy focuses on restoring range of motion, strengthening supporting muscles, improving balance, and retraining proper movement patterns. This reduces pain, improves stability, and lowers the risk of repeated injuries. PT doesn’t just calm symptoms, it addresses why the ankle keeps acting up in the first place. #physicaltherapy #recovery
