Achilles tendinopathy rehabilitation and treatment at Vitalis Physiotherapy is designed to:
Achilles tendinopathy is a condition which affects the Achilles tendon that serves to enable proper bending of the foot downwards at the ankle. When injured, it causes pain, swelling and stiffness, preventing you from walking properly. It is usually diagnosed with professional and recreational athletes as they tend to overuse the Achilles tendon.
If the pain persists and becomes chronic, patients should turn to a professional to get an adequate Achilles tendinopathy exercises program. Left untreated, you run the risk of rupturing the Achilles tendon. Furthermore, if you ignore the problem with one Achilles tendon, you might eventually develop a problem with the other one.
It is possible to minimise the chances of developing Achilles tendinopathy by going about your exercise regiment smart. First, you will need proper footwear. Next, it is essential to develop an exercise plan which will help you build your strength and stamina gradually and not surprise your body with movements it cannot bear.
