چکیده مقاله:

Functional ankle instability, accompanied by persistent ankle pain and swelling is highly prevalent among athletes. One of the debilitating consequences of ankle instability is the tendency to repeat it. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect and maintenance of six weeks wobble board training on balance in athletes with functional ankle instability.The present research was a quasi-experimental study with pretest, posttest and follow up. ۳۶ female athletes with functional ankle instability were randomly assigned to two groups labeled as wobble board training and control group. Individuals in experimental group received intervention, ۳ times per week for ۶ weeks and control group did not receive any intervention. Assessments of outcome measurements were performed before and after intervention and also ۱-month after the end of intervention. Balance (Anterior, Posterior-Medial and Posterior-Lateral) were measured with Y balance test at pretest, posttest and follow up. The data were analyzed by using analysis of descriptive Statistics, Mixed ANOVA repeated measure, Analysis of variance, Tukey’s post hoc test, repeated measures analysis of variance and Bonferroni’s post hoc test at a significance level of P≤ ۰.۰۵.The results showed that both experimental groups had significantly improvements for all outcome measurements after the intervention (P≤ ۰.۰۵). Also, significant difference between pre-test and follow-up were reported for outcome measures in experimental group. No changes were observed for control group in pretest, posttest and follow up. Also, significant differences were observed between the two groups for all outcome measures after the intervention (P≤ ۰.۰۵).Based on the findings of the present study, Wobble board exercises in the experimental group led to a significant improvement in balance (Anterior, Posterior-Medial and Posterior-Lateral). Therefore, people with functional ankle instability can use Wobble board exercises to prevent injury and reduce injury complications.
