Tendinopathy (Tendon Injury) |
|
Tendinopathies
are tendon injuries caused mechanically by overuse and repetitive or
rapid movements, leading to tendons becoming painful and/or torn.
The most prone to such painful tendon injuries are the tendon parts
close to or attached to the bones.
The
friction can also lead to the formation of lime/calcium deposits that
further exacerbate the tendon pain. Additionally, disturbances in
metabolic processes or presence of metabolic conditions could also
contribute to the development and exacerbation of tendinopathies.
Laser
phototherapy is very effective in the treatment and/or management of
tendinopathies and the associated pain. Application of laser light
works primarily on the pain, reducing it effectively and rapidly.
Improved blood flow has a positive effect on the removal of calcium
deposits. Disappearance of pain enables the sufferers regain their
mobility and return to the normal active life.
Laser
phototherapy presents an effective and safe therapeutic modality of
choice for patients concerned by the side effects caused by pain
killers.

therapists and patients witness and experience the positive
therapeutic impact of laser phototherapy delivered by the MedSolution
