Tendonitis is an overuse injury that occurs as a result of inflammation or irritation of a tendon—the fibrous, thick cords that connect muscle to bone. Tendonitis can lead to pain, stiffness, and limited motion, making every day an ordeal. Sterling Physio treats tendonitis with scientifically supported therapy meant to minimize pain, restore function, and avoid recurrence.
Tendonitis can affect any tendon in the body, but it usually occurs in areas such as shoulders, elbow, wrists, knees and heels. This is usually caused by repetitive movements, excessive use or damage.
