NCT ID NCT06682897

Summary

This study tested whether a simplified, 4-week Tai Chi exercise program could improve ankle function for people with chronic ankle instability. Researchers compared the Tai Chi training to a self-management approach in 36 adults, measuring ankle strength, balance, and stability. The goal was to see if this gentle, traditional exercise could help people feel more stable and improve their quality of life.
