The Foot/Ankle Complex consists of the tibia, fibula, and the 26 bones of the foot.
Together they allow the foot to adapt to all surfaces but to also have the power and manueverability to push off and proper the body in all directions.
With this mobility, and with the amount of load placed through the foot/ankle, along with its primary function to stabilize on all surfaces, these all place the joint at risk for sprains, strains, and compression fractures.

The following kit will:
-instruct in the proper exercise program to ensure strength, flexibility, and balance
