Learn more about tendonitis and how our chiropractor can treat it below.
What Is Tendonitis?
Tendonitis is a common condition that causes inflammation in a tendon. Although tendonitis can affect any tendon in the body, it most frequently occurs in the elbows, knees, shoulders, and Achilles tendons. These areas often experience overuse or repetitive motions that strain the tendon, leading to inflammation and pain. People with tendonitis usually feel pain, tenderness, and stiffness in the affected area.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help With Tendonitis
Chiropractors focus on the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, emphasizing the body's natural healing ability. Our chiropractor can help improve joint function and reduce inflammation around the affected tendon by addressing potential misalignments in the spine and joints. Chiropractic treatment for tendonitis often incorporates several techniques, including:
- Chiropractic adjustments: Gentle adjustments can improve joint mobility and range of motion, reducing stress on the tendons.
- Cold laser therapy: This pain-free approach uses low-level lasers to promote tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
- Corrective exercises and physical therapy: Our chiropractor can recommend specific stretches and strengthening exercises to improve flexibility and stability in the affected area. These help prevent future injuries and promote long-term healing.
- Soft tissue therapy: Techniques like massage therapy can reduce inflammation and induce healing in the affected tendon.
Why Choose Chiropractic Care for Tendonitis?
Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive and drug-free approach to managing tendonitis. Chiropractic treatment can promote faster healing and a quicker return to normal activity levels by addressing the underlying causes of joint dysfunction and inflammation. Additionally, chiropractic care can help prevent future tendonitis episodes by improving overall joint health and mechanics. Our chiropractor will help you achieve long-term health and wellness through holistic chiropractic care.
