Our Podiatrists will diagnose and treat achilles tendonitis to help you get active again. This condition will stop you being active and even stop you being able to work and enjoy life to the full.
We will not only help diagnose the issue and resolve it but we will look at why this re-occurs and often becomes a chronic condition.
How efficiently we move will determine how much strain goes through our calf and achilles, so moving more efficiently reduces this strain and stops the issue.
Maintaining optimal foot health is a prerequisite for a balanced gait and healthy Achilles tendon function. Engaging in routine podiatry chiropody addresses underlying issues like calluses or nail pathologies that might otherwise force compensatory biomechanical shifts. By ensuring the foundation of your movement remains sound, we help mitigate the risk of secondary strain on the lower limb.
For patients struggling with persistent Achilles tendinopathy, high-energy acoustic pulses can stimulate the natural healing process in stalled tissues. We utilise shockwave therapy to target calcifications and promote vascularisation within the tendon structure itself. This non-invasive approach serves as an evidence-based alternative to surgical intervention for those seeking a return to peak physical performance.
Managing acute inflammation in the Achilles tendon requires a precise clinical intervention that accelerates cellular repair without further irritation. We offer laser therapy to reduce oedema and alleviate pain through targeted photobiomodulation. This treatment is particularly effective for reducing recovery time and facilitating a swift return to activity after an injury flare-up.
