Tendinopathy

Healing Tendon Pain with Our Tendinopathy Program

Are you experiencing pain and stiffness in your tendons? You may be suffering from tendinopathy, a broad term encompassing tendon overuse and inflammation.  St. Luke's Therapy Sevierville's Tendinopathy Program offers a comprehensive approach to address both tendinitis (acute inflammation) and chronic tendinopathy, promoting healing and a return to pain-free movement.


Understanding Tendinopathy:

Tendonopathy describes a spectrum of conditions affecting the tendons, the tissues connecting muscles to bones. It can cause pain, tenderness, and stiffness, often at the point where the tendon attaches to the bone. While tendinitis refers specifically to inflammation, tendinopathy can encompass both inflammatory and degenerative changes within the tendon.


Who Can Benefit from Our Tendinopathy Program?

Our program is ideal for individuals experiencing:

  • Pain and tenderness around a joint, particularly with activity
  • Difficulty performing daily activities due to tendon pain
  • Stiffness in the affected area, especially in the mornings
  • Swelling around the involved joint (more common with tendinitis)


Examples of Common Tendinopathies:

  • Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
  • Golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis)
  • Achilles tendinitis
  • Patellar tendinitis (jumper's knee)
  • Rotator cuff tendinitis


What to Expect in Our Tendinopathy Program:

  • Detailed Assessment:  Our therapists will conduct a thorough evaluation to identify the specific type of tendinopathy you're experiencing, its severity, and any contributing factors.
  • Personalized Treatment Plan:  We will design a customized program that may include:
    • Manual therapy to improve joint mobility and reduce pain
    • Therapeutic exercises to strengthen the muscles supporting the affected tendon
    • Modalities such as ultrasound or electrical stimulation to promote healing
    • Instruction in proper stretching and flexibility techniques
    • Education on activity modification and proper body mechanics to prevent future injury


Benefits of Our Tendinopathy Program:

  • Reduced Pain and Improved Function:  Our program targets the underlying cause of your pain, promoting faster healing and a return to pain-free movement.
  • Enhanced Strength and Flexibility:  Strengthening exercises improve stability and prevent future injuries.  Stretching techniques help maintain flexibility and range of motion.
  • Faster Recovery:  By addressing the root cause of the problem, our program can expedite your recovery and get you back to the activities you enjoy.
  • Education and Self-Management Strategies:  We empower you to manage your condition effectively through education on proper movement patterns, activity modification, and self-care techniques.
