Update: Dec 2. Had my seventh PT session today and my therapist made measurements of flexibility of my ankle in four directions; bending my foot down, pulling it up, bending it inside and outside. All measurements showed progress in flexibility. She also did some research of the Infinity device to see just how far one can flex and she said the flexibility degrees in all directions is slightly less than a normal healthy ankle. Flexibility is so good that walking, climbing or descending stairs is normal as well as fast walking. In fact she had me do fast walking after my normal exercises for the first time. I surprised myself by being able to do so, however, it was just a short distance.
My routine starts with a wonderful rubdown to loosen my ankle, then on to the exercises such as, flexing my ankle against a rubber band in all directions, putting my foot on a circular board and flexing in all directions, putting my foot on an incline and leaning forward(this is hard), laying on a machine and pushing a board with my ankle, standing on a rubber cushion with first my good leg while holding my replacement leg up for balance then closing my eyes for balance, then reversing to my right ankle doing the same. Finishing up with walking backwards and forward. Session usually lasts about 45 minutes.
Hope you are all doing well and progressing well as we journey together.
