Adjustable Wobble Board
Over the years we've been randomly asked to get hold of wobble boards. Though these request have been few and far between, now that we have found a great one from a trusted manufacturer we've added it to our range.
The bobbled surface is designed for maximum grip during balancing exercises.
This wobble board is adjustable by rotating the centre pivot of the board which gives a range of angles anywhere between 19 and 23 degrees.
A bit of Wobble Board information:
Often used in yoga and for sport training, a wobble board (also called a balance board) can be an excellent tool for rehabilitation from a bad ankle sprain.
How does a wobble board help?
Wobble boards work to rehab an injured ankle in several ways:
- Improves range of motion
Injured ankles tend to become stiff ankles--a problem that can potentially lead to re-injury. A wobble board will work your ankle to move in all motions and help keep the joint mobile.
- Improves ankle strength
After an ankle injury, the muscles that surround the ankle become weak. This can lead to chronic ankle pain and potentially to re-injury of the joint.
- Improves proprioception
Proprioception is the ability of your body to provide feedback to the brain. After an ankle sprain, the proprioception of the joint can be damaged, leading to problems controlling ankle movements. The balance board can help 're-train' the ankle joint.
Most ankle sprains get better quite quickly, but if you're having trouble, consider using a wobble board to help rehab the joint.
