Grade I ankle sprains are common, especially among athletes, women, teenagers, and physically active individuals. While over a million cases are reported annually, this represents only half of the total occurrences. These injuries can lead to complications like chronic ankle instability or osteoarthritis. Treatment often involves conservative methods, including the PRICEMMS protocol (protection, rest, ice, compression, elevation, modalities, medication, and support), while surgery is reserved for severe cases. Therapeutic exercises and rehabilitation play a key role in recovery. The Bowen technique, effective for other musculoskeletal issues, has not yet been extensively studied for Grade I ankle sprains.

The sample is a convenience sample and will include individuals diagnosed with Grade I acute ankle sprain who present for examination at the specified institutions. After a proper diagnosis, confirmation of inclusion in the study, and signed ethical consent for participation in the research, randomization of participants will be conducted using an electronic number generator on the website www.randomizer.org/form:htm.
