ABSTRACT:
A hydrotherapeutic device for the ankle includes a shoe and a plurality of fins for resisting movement of the foot relative to the ankle. The fins are of substantially equal size and shape and arranged to provide substantially equal resistance to opposite flexion of the foot and opposite turning of the foot when submerged. A set of devices may be provided, with the devices being similar in construction but providing different levels of resistance to foot movement.
