  • Description: Patients classified with ankle sprains are commonly treated with a multimode intervention approach. Currently, protection and tissue healing are the most accepted forms of care for these patients. Six patients (4 male, 2 female) 20.2 ± 1.3 years of age were classified with acute grade I lateral ankle sprains (LAS). Each patient was treated with either the Fibular Mobilization with Movement (FMWM) or Modified Fibular Mobilization with Movement (MFMWM). The clinical outcomes for the patients treated with both fibula MWM improved and patients returned to activity levels at about three days after three treatments. As medicine continues to advance and explore new theories for rehabilitative clinical practice it is necessary to assess interventions on patients. This prospective exploratory case series was written to share a clinical intervention, Mulligan Concept, and the outcomes that occurred in the patients with a lateral ankle sprain.
