Sponsor's own description
Approximately 70% of all people who have had a simple ankle sprain tend to develop continuing instability and pain. Chronic ankle instability is the most common problem that impairs the patients' daily functions. This can lead to balance issues, chances of recurrent sprain and loss of function. * Therefore, the investigators are conducting this study to assess the immediate effects of balance exercises along with kinesio-taping on static balance, dynamic balance and joint position sense, and to also assess if this combination can be used as stopgap (quick-fix) to improve balance and proprioception before a session of sports activity in people involved in recreational sports. * During the study, the participants will receive a one-time application of ankle kinesio-taping followed by an hour of balance training exercises on different surfaces such as Dynair, Bosu, Foam pads, and Mini tramp. Joint position sense will be assessed using a digital inclinometer that is already available in the department. * The participants will be tested using certain physical tests to assess the static balance and dynamic balance using the Balance Error Scoring System tool and Star Excursion Balance Test respectively which they will perform before and 24 hours post training.
