Ankle and Foot Assessment & Rehab Blueprint Launching October 12th
Ankle and Foot
Assessment & Rehab Blueprint
Our complete Ankle and Foot Assessment & Rehab Blueprint gives you a clear, step-by-step system for assessing ankle and foot pain and building targeted rehab plans.
You’ll learn how to identify the likely source of symptoms, uncover the key physical limitations, and use what you find to guide treatment.Inside, you’ll get 20+ assessment strategies and 60+ targeted rehab strategies.
What to Expect:
Learn the core principles behind our approach to ankle and foot rehab. You’ll learn how to identify the likely source of symptoms, assess irritability and load tolerance, and decide where rehab should start. Instead of jumping straight into strengthening, you’ll learn how to determine what the ankle or foot needs now, and what it’s ready for next.
Module 1: Ankle and Foot Assessment & Rehab Fundamentals
Learn the core principles behind our approach to ankle and foot rehab.
You’ll learn how to identify the likely source of symptoms, assess irritability and load tolerance, and decide where rehab should start.
Instead of jumping straight into strengthening, you’ll learn how to determine what the ankle or foot needs now, and what it’s ready for next.
Module 1 outline:
Ankle & foot tolerance & capacity principles
Ankle & foot movement overload analysis
How to create a ankle & foot movement options map
Ankle & foot range of motion classification system
Ankle & foot contractile classification system
How to create an ankle & foot movement dosage map
IKN test – treat – rehab process
Module 2: Ankle & Foot Assessment Process
In this module, you’ll learn how to systematically assess the ankle and foot, identify what may be driving symptoms, and determine which physical qualities need to be addressed.
You’ll combine symptom behaviour, joint loading, muscle function, and force production to build a clearer picture of the person in front of you.
The goal isn’t just to find what’s “weak” or “tight,” but to understand what provokes symptoms, what the ankle and foot can currently tolerate, and where the biggest rehab opportunities lie.
Module 2 outline:
Ankle & foot biomechanics
Standing visual inspection
Standing foot reaction assessment
Ankle dorsiflexion ROM assessments
Targeted ankle & foot ROM assessments
Achilles tendon assessments
Ankle plantar flexor force production assessments
Ankle inverter & evertor force production assessments
Toe flexor force production assessments
Heel pain and lateral ankle pain case scenarios
Module 3: Ankle & Foot Rehabilitation Strategies
In this module, you’ll learn how to turn your assessment findings into a targeted, progressive ankle & foot rehabilitation plan.
You’ll learn how to progress from strategies designed to restore comfortable movement and improve tolerance, through targeted muscle loading, and ultimately towards integrated strengthening and higher-level ankle & foot function.
Every strategy is broken down in detail, including why we use it, when we use it, how we dose it, and how we progress or regress it based on the client's response.
Module 3 outline:
Local ankle plantar flexor loading strategies
Plantar flexor & invertor coordinative loading strategies
Plantar flexor & evertor coordinative loading strategies
Local invertor & evertor loading strategies
Toe flexor local & coordinative loading strategies
Ankle dorsiflexion ROM strategies
Foot pronation ROM strategies
Supination & toe extension ROM strategies
