//03Safety notes
01

Tap immediately when ankle pressure begins - do not test flexibility limits.

02

Progressive pressure allows 5+ second pain window before ligament damage.

03

50/50 ankle locks create mutual injury risk - both practitioners' ankles at risk.

04

Never roll or twist explosively while foot is trapped - risks knee or ankle damage.

05

Ankle injuries require weeks of recovery - avoid high-volume drilling of same leg.
