This study is testing a new tool to measure balance in older adults who are still active and independent. It aims to help identify early balance problems before they lead to falls.
This study tests if adding rhythmic music or sounds to special balance and stability exercises helps people recover better from a mild to moderate lateral ankle sprain (an injury to the outer side of the ankle). It may be a good option if your ankle sprain happened 2 to 8 weeks ago and you haven't had ankle surgery before.
