Supportive therapy, not a miracle cure.
Magnetotherapy may help with pain, stiffness and recovery, but it works best when it is matched to the right problem. If your symptoms are persistent, worsening or unclear, start with a clinic assessment so we can find the cause first.
What it can feel like
Tendon symptoms can include pain during activity, stiffness after rest, morning soreness, pain that warms up then returns, or flare-ups after sudden changes in training.
Common causes
- Tendon overload
- Training spikes
- Reduced strength capacity
- Poor recovery between sessions
- Persistent tissue sensitivity
How we assess it
We look at the tendon, strength, activity history, footwear or equipment, training load and whether diagnostic ultrasound, rehab or magnetotherapy is useful.
Treatment options
- Tendon assessment
- Load management
- Progressive strength plan
- PMRA/PEMF suitability check
- Review of response
Questions people often ask
Can magnetotherapy heal a tendon?
Tendon recovery usually needs load management and strengthening. Magnetotherapy may support symptoms, but it is not a replacement for rehab.
Should tendon pain be stretched?
Not always. Some tendon problems dislike aggressive stretching. The right plan depends on the tendon and stage.
Could ultrasound help?
Diagnostic ultrasound may be useful when symptoms are persistent, unclear or not improving as expected.
