Tendonitis

What Is Tendonitis?

​

Tendonitis is a painful and often limiting condition caused by inflammation in a tendon - the tissue that connects muscles to bones. It typically results from repetitive motion, overuse, or injury, and can lead to swelling, soreness, and decreased mobility in the affected joint. Common areas include the shoulder, elbow, knee, and ankle, with Achilles tendonitis being one of the most frequently treated cases at Heelex Surprise.

Why Traditional Treatments May Not Be Enough

​

Most conventional treatments for tendonitis focus on rest, physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory medications. While these can help in mild cases, they may not provide lasting relief for chronic or severe tendon inflammation. Over time, continued use of NSAIDs or pain medications can take a toll on your liver, kidneys, or overall health, making non-invasive alternatives worth exploring.

 

 

A New Option: Low Dose X-Ray Therapy

​

We offer Low Dose X-ray Therapy as an innovative solution for those seeking a non-surgical path to tendonitis relief. This gentle, targeted treatment works by reducing inflammation at the tissue level — promoting healing and helping restore mobility.
