Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Fascial Distortion Model and balance training  This group will receive Fascial Distortion Model and balance training. The four distortions that will be incoorperated in Fascial Distortion Model are Trigger band (TB),Continuum distortion (CD),Folding distortions (rFD and uFD)and Cylinder distortion (cyD). A dynamic balance-training program developed by McKeon et al for those with CAI will also be given to the participants. The intervention will be given for 12 sessions over a period of 3 weeks (4 sessions/ week, 30min/ session).  
Intervention  KCAT and balance training  This group will receive KCAT and balance training. Participants will receive KCAT technique and a dynamic balance-training program developed by McKeon et al for those with CAI will also be given to the participants. The intervention will be given for 12 sessions over a period of 3 weeks (4 sessions/ week, 30min/ session).

Brief Summary   Chronic Ankle Instability is mainly due to a sprain in the ligaments (medial and lateral) in the ankle. This study will be conducted to compare the effect of Facial Distortion Model (FDM) and KCAT in individuals with Chronic ankle instability. Individuals will be screened using the Cumberland Ankle Instability tool (CAIT) and 30 participants will be included in the study based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study. They will be randomly divided into two groups, one group receiving Facial Distortion model along with balance training and the other group receiving KCAT along with balance training. 12 sessions will be given for a period of 3 weeks ( 4 sessions/ week and 30min/ session). Balance and reaction time will be assessed prior and post the intervention using the Tetrax Interactive Balance System, Star excursion Balance Test (SEBT) and blazepods. The results will be statistically analyzed and a conclusion will be drawn.
