Active Ankle Stretch

This type of stretching will be the safest to use in the early stages of rehabilitation.

1. Whilst sitting on a chair, stretch out straight your left leg
2. Pull the foot and toes up gently to stretch the muscles at the back of the leg.
3. Hold for 8 seconds, repeat 5 times.
4. Repeat with your right leg.
5. Stretch if pain allows throughout the day.
