The effect of NASM and neuromuscular training on ankle proprioception, balance, and strength in male soccer players with functional ankle sprain.

Ankle injury is one of the most common musculoskeletal injuries in sports activities, which generally account for 10 to 15 percent of total injuries. Accordingly, this research is aimed at. Comparison of 8 weeks of neuromuscular and NASM exercises was performed on the ankle deepness, stomach control and range of motion of fosal. In this semi experimental and applied study, 20 fotsal were randomly divided into two groups euromuscular training (10) and NASM (10). Neuro-muscular and NASM exercises for 8 weeks and 3 sessions per week. Deepness by gonometry of both legs. Stress control including dynamic equilibrium by SEBT test to assess dynamic stance control on the upper leg and range of motion by goniometer before and after The 8- week training program for Neuromuscular and Tranand training was measured. Data were analyzed using independent t-test and independent t-test using SPSS version 22 software. The significance level was considered to be P≤0.05. The results showed that there was significant difference between the eight weeks of neuromuscular NASM exercises in the ankle deep sense (P≤0.05). Also, there was significant difference in the dynamic balance of the two groups after the intervention (P≤0.05). There was no significant difference in the strenght between the two groups after intervention (P≤0.05). Therefore, adding neuromuscular and NASM exercises to the rehab program as an affordable, safe and non-invasive method can increase stomach control, deep ankle sensation and improve the range of motion in fotsal.
