Understanding Tendonitis

Tendonitis often starts subtly with mild discomfort that worsens with activity. Common affected areas include the shoulder (rotator cuff tendonitis), elbow (tennis or golfer’s elbow), knee (patellar tendonitis), and Achilles tendon. If left untreated, pain can persist and limit strength, flexibility, and performance.

Our Approach to Healing

We take a comprehensive and individualized approach to help your tendon heal stronger. Our care focuses on relieving pain and reducing inflammation, improving tendon resilience and mobility, correcting movement patterns that contribute to irritation, and gradually restoring function and activity tolerance.

Targeted Tendonitis Treatments

You may benefit from a tailored plan that supports tendon healing and long-term resilience, including:
Manual therapy and soft tissue techniques to loosen tight muscles and improve blood flow
Rehabilitation exercises with gradual, controlled loading to strengthen tendons
Activity modification strategies to protect injured tissues while healing
Supportive modalities such as therapeutic ultrasound or electric stimulation that may enhance recovery

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does tendonitis take to heal?

Healing time varies based on severity and location. Acute cases may improve within a few weeks, while chronic tendonitis can take several months. Following your treatment plan and avoiding activities that aggravate the tendon are key to faster recovery.

Will my tendonitis come back?

Tendonitis can recur if underlying movement patterns and contributing factors aren’t addressed. Our comprehensive approach includes correcting these issues and providing you with strategies to prevent future flare-ups so that you can maintain long-term tendon health.

Should I stretch or strengthen tendonitis?

Usually both—but in the right order and intensity. Tendons tend to respond best to gradual, controlled strengthening (loading), paired with mobility work. We’ll customize this to help you improve without triggering symptoms.

Is it okay to keep working out with tendonitis?

Often yes, with modifications. We’ll help you adjust exercises, reduce irritating movements, and choose alternatives that maintain fitness while giving the tendon the right environment to recover.
