|a The ankle complex comprises three articulations or joints (talocrural, subtalar, and distal tibiofibular joints) work in concert to allow coordinated rear-foot motion. The talocrural joint receives ligamentous support from a joint capsule and four ligaments. Injuries to the lateral ligaments of the ankle complex are common incurred by athletes, leading to ankle joint instability. Balance training programs and modalities, such as balance boards, are recommended to maintain stable ankles. This study was designed to identify whether balance board level and holding Mulligan mobilization belt present differential indicator for individuals with healthy ankles during single limb stance (SLS) in order to examine the effectiveness of introducing the belt in any balance training progression. Forty (40) healthy male and female adults (age M= 28.2500; SD= 6.79649) were recruited from in and out Barry University. The balance board that was used is Isokinetic Balance Board (IKBB) with two levels. The object that was held is Mulligan mobilization belt. A seven-camera 3D motion analysis system VICON, using a lower body marker system recorded the kinematic SLS trials for analysis. The participants performed a total of 18 randomized SLS trials for all conditions. A two-way repeated measures MANOVA was calculated to understand if there was an interaction between the two factors (SLS condition & level) on the dependent variables with a significance level of p ≤ 0.05. Significant main effect was found (Lambda (4, 36) = .012; p ≤ 0.05) between subjects in SLS condition (no belt & belt). Also, significant main effect was found (Lambda (8, 150) = .001; p ≤ 0.05) within subjects in SLS level (normal, level one IKBB, and level two IKBB). Significant interaction effect was found (Lambda (8, 150) = .003; p ≤ 0.05) within subjects in both dorsiflexion and abduction between SLS condition (no belt & belt/belt) and level (level normal & level one IKBB/level normal & level two IKBB). These findings suggest that researchers can conclude that the SLS level and introduction of the belt had an effective impact in the process of balance training or rehabilitating progression. Beginner IKBB users could use this training device for balance practice under close supervision but should not expect to see increase ankle joint stability or proprioception benefits until the IKBB can be used independently or with the introduction of the belt. Further investigation is needed to determine if experience level or a different form of balance exercise will affect lower body kinematic deviations on an IKBB. |
