Achilles Tendinosis
Achilles heel, tendinitis, tendinosis, tendinopathy…. Whatever you call it….It hurts!
Tendinosis of the Achilles tendon is often resistant to all sorts of treatments traditionally given for this problem.
However, In recent years there have been a handful of new research studies suggesting a better approach to treating sore and swollen achilles tendon problems.
This involves a prescribed course of exercises following a physiotherapy and podiatry assessment often involving ultrasound imaging of the tendon, to measure any swelling or injury.
We will offer orthotics, shoe advice and other physical therapiesas well, but a course of daily exercises and regular reviews of your progress will keep you on track to full cure, over a period of 12-16 weeks.
