A Tilting Platform Designed to Enhance Ankle Stability
The Human Locomotion Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard is a tilting platform designed to enhance ankle stability and reduce your chances of experiencing an ankle sprain. Ankle sprains are exceedingly common in our society and are associated with a number of factors, including the use of rigid-soled, high-stack-height footwear, poor balance, tight calves, low overall fitness, and carrying too much body weight. Because most feet tilt in twice as far as they tilt out, an effective rockboard should permit tilting in a two-to-one movement ratio. The Human Locomotion Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard does exactly this, placing your foot in the position of a future sprain and then gently encouraging you to use your muscles to pull yourself into a more biomechanically advantageous position.
Made of High-Density Rubber, Helps Target Lower Leg Muscles
The helpful and easy-to-use Human Locomotion Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard is made of high-density rubber and is designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA. The rubber used in the construction of the Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard provides the platform with some flexibility, which creates a degree of resistance that enhances its overall effectiveness. Using this ankle rockboard (especially with the advanced drill recommended by the manufacturer and linked to below) will permit your lower leg muscles to benefit from targeted training, and you can use this device to help you maintain full ankle range of motion, which is beneficial for all forms of weight-bearing movement. The manufacturer recommends wearing sneakers when using this device.
Can Be Used in Combination With & Alongside Other Helpful Footgear
If you are using the Human Locomotion Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard to treat a recent sprain and/or an unstable ankle, we recommend that you consult your healthcare provider first to help you determine which protocol (advanced or basic) is most appropriate for you. For those not in acute pain who are seeking to build a sturdier lower leg and prevent future ankle injuries, consider incorporating other helpful footgear into your foot care routine for synergistic foot health benefits. Footgear such as Correct Toes, Injinji toe socks, Pedag metatarsal pads, Naboso insoles, BlackBoard training tools, and men’s or women’s foot-healthy footwear can nicely complement (and accelerate) the foot health gains you will experience using the Two-to-One Ankle Rockboard.
