  • Anchor a theraband to a stable object on the inside (medial side) of the working leg.
  • Loop the band around the outside (lateral side) of your forefoot or midfoot so it gently pulls your foot inward.
  • Stand upright near a wall or bench for light balance support if required.
  • Shift your weight onto the working leg and lift the opposite foot off the ground.
  • Allow the band to create a gentle inward pull, then actively resist it by pressing the outer border of your foot slightly into the ground while keeping your big toe in contact with the floor.
  • Maintain a neutral arch and keep your ankle aligned over your second toe.
  • Keeping your knee relatively straight, slowly rise up onto the ball of your foot.
  • Pause briefly at the top, ensuring the ankle does not roll outward.
  • Slowly lower your heel back to the floor with control, maintaining resistance against the band.
  • Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
