Wobble boards, rocker boards and tilt boards are frequently used by physiotherapists, physical therapists and sports therapists in the treatment and rehabilitation of sports injuries such as sprained ankle and following knee surgery and ankle surgery. A wobble board is a wooden disc with a rounded bottom that provides a challenging surface to balance on. The main use for wobble boards, rocker boards and tilt boards is to improve proprioception.
Proprioception is the body's ability to know where a joint is positioned without having to look at it. The joint positional sense of proprioception is important for ankle and knee injury prevention because it improves the ability of the neuromuscular system to make fine alterations to movements during sports that can prevent a twisted ankle or twisted knee. Physiotherapy exercises always incorporate proprioception exercises especially during sprained ankle or knee ligament injury rehabilitation.
Wobble boards allow balance and proprioception improvement because they force the user to make continual adjustments in order to keep the wobble board balanced. Rockers boards can also be used to help increase ankle range of motion following a sprained ankle injury.
