| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conventional Treatment + Cervical and Oculomotor Exercises | Experimental | Participants in the experimental group will receive a conventional rehabilitation program including mobility, strengthening, balance, and proprioceptive exercises targeting the ankle joint. In addition, they will perform cervical stabilization and oculomotor exercises. The intervention will be conducted for 4 weeks, with 3 sessions per week. Participants will follow a home exercise program that includes ankle mobility, strengthening, balance, and oculomotor exercises on days when they do not attend the clinic. |
|
| Conventional Treatment | Active Comparator | Participants in the control group will receive a conventional rehabilitation program consisting of mobility, strengthening, balance, and proprioceptive exercises targeting the ankle joint. The intervention will be conducted for 4 weeks, with 3 sessions per week. Participants will follow a home exercise program that includes ankle mobility, strengthening and balance exercises on days when they do not attend the clinic. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Y-Balance Test | Dynamic balance performance assessed using balance tests (Y-Balance Test) | Baseline and post-intervention (after 4 weeks) |
| Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) | Functional status assessed using the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) The daily living activities subscale contains 21 items; the minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 84. The sports subscale consists of 8 items; the minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 32. A higher score represents a higher level of physical function. | Baseline and post-intervention (after 4 weeks) |

Ankle dorsiflexion range of motion will be assessed with the weight bearing lunge test
| Baseline and post-intervention (after 4 weeks) |
| Computerized balance assessment | Postural stability will be assessed using the Prokin Tecnobody balance assessment system. | Baseline and post-intervention (after 4 weeks) |
| Side Hop Test | Side hop test will be used to assess the dynamic postural control capacity around the ankle. | Baseline and post-intervention (after 4 weeks) |
| Ankle Pain | Ankle pain will be assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS). The VAS is a scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe pain), with higher scores indicating greater pain. | Baseline and post-intervention (after 4 weeks) |
| Cervical Joint Position Error Test | Cervical proprioception will be assessed using the Cervical Joint Position Error Test. | Baseline and post-intervention (after 4 weeks) |
