Wobble board

Physiotherapy following the ankle surgery I had at the end of May has moved up a gear today.... back to the wobble board! It looks as if it should be quite easy, but hey, it's not as easy as it looks when you have a not quite fit ankle!

One of the consequences of the original accident and again with the more recent surgery is that my ability to balance on my right leg was severely impaired. Ok, so how often do I need to stand on one leg, you might ask! Perhaps not that often, but it actually has quite a big impact on things like walking or scrambling on rough or uneven ground, which for someone who is desperate to get back to hillwalking is a significant factor. So .... some hard work ahead on the wobble board combined with a variety of other exercises to strengthen the muscles and inprove the balance factor.

Bring it on!
