Tendonitis

Tendonitis

Tendonitis, characterized by inflammation or irritation of a tendon, can cause pain, swelling, and limited mobility, impairing daily activities and reducing quality of life. Physical therapy is a cornerstone of treatment for tendonitis, offering targeted interventions to alleviate symptoms, promote healing, and restore optimal function.

At UCC Physio, our team of Practitioners conduct a comprehensive assessment to identify the underlying causes of tendonitis and assess the severity of the condition. Based on this evaluation, personalized treatment plans are developed to address the specific needs and goals of the individual. Treatment may include a combination of therapeutic exercises to strengthen the affected tendon, improve flexibility, and restore normal movement patterns. Manual therapy techniques, such as soft tissue mobilization and joint mobilizations, are often used to reduce pain, inflammation, and muscle tension.
