Intervention Group:

Participants will receive an eight-week individualized balance and proprioception training program.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

balance and proprioception training program.

Intervention Type OTHER

The program will include exercises focused on improving ankle stability and joint position sense, such as single-leg stance, wobble board, and resistance band exercises.

Participants will attend two supervised sessions per week and perform home-based exercises 3-4 times per week.

Progression of exercises will be individualized based on participant performance and tolerance.

Control group

Participants will continue their usual care, including general strength and flexibility exercises.
