Proprioceptive train: Therabands work well to work on strengthening. Balance boards/bosu balls, etc. Are great for proprioceptive training.

Ankle rehab: Proprioceptive training is excellent but if you can't get to those equipment you can start off with simple calf raises...Going up and down on your toes!
