Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Participants with a chronically unstable ankle between 18 and 40 years of age, one injury (distorsion trauma) =1 year ago, Identification of functional instability (IdFAI) = 11 points, questions 5 and 6 of the IDFAI are not answered with "never" In the sense of the investigation.
Exclusion criteria: Lower limb injuries during the last 3 months, due to which physical activity was not possible for more than one day, surgery on the affected lower extremity in the last 12 months, surgery on the affected ankle, neurological or peripheral vascular disease, medication with influence On the balance, therapeutic treatment on the lower limb and back (eg physiotherapy or osteopathy) during the duration of the study, acute infections, fever.

Age minimum: 18 Years
Age maximum: 40 Years
Gender: All
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Dislocation, sprain and strain of joints and ligaments at ankle and foot level

S93
Intervention(s)
Group 1: The participants will get an intervention (mobilization): The mobilization thrust direction is from anterior to posterior in a final degree of dorsiflexion of the talocruralis joint. Mobilization: during 5 x 1 minute, each with an ease-off of 10 seconds in between. In a Grade III mobilization to Maitland, a passive movement is performed, which has a large amplitude and enters the resistance.
It is measured before and after the intervention.
Group 2: The participants sit on a chair for 10 minutes.
Before and after the rest a measurement will be performed.
Primary Outcome(s)
M. peroneus longus activation during the landing from one-leg-drop-jump before and after a mobilization treatment of the ankle joint. The measurement will be carried out with the EMG device NORAXON TeleMyo 2400T G2 and one-way electrodes AmbuĀ® Blue-Sensor.
Secondary Outcome(s)
Evaluation of the
1. Time-to-stabilization in post-one-leg drop-jump assessment as a parameter for postural control. The anterior / posterior, the medial / lateral and the vertical ground reaction force with a sampling frequency of 1000 Hz are recorded as values using a force measuring plate (Kistler Quattro Jump, Sindelfingen, Germany), whereupon the TTS is calculated.
2. Muscle activation of the tibialis anterior, soleus, gastrognemius, quadriceps femoris, biceps femoris during landing after one-leg-drop-jump. The measurement will be carried out with the EMG device NORAXON TeleMyo 2400T G2 and one-way electrodes AmbuĀ® Blue-Sensor.
3. Reliability measurement of time-to-stabilization.
