Specialist Physiotherapy for Achilles Tendon Injuries

At Podium Physiotherapy, we have a specialist interest in the management of tendon pain and tendon-related injuries.

Our approach is thorough, evidence-based, and personalised to your individual goals and training demands. We believe that understanding your condition is an important part of recovery, and we work closely with you to develop a bespoke rehabilitation programme aimed not only at reducing pain, but also achieving long-term resolution of symptoms and preventing recurrence.

In the early stages of tendon pain, a temporary reduction or modification in training load is often necessary to help settle an irritated tendon. Complete rest is rarely advised; instead, carefully adjusting training volume and intensity can help offload the tendon while maintaining fitness and activity levels.

At Podium Physiotherapy, we carry out a detailed physical assessment, review your training data and biomechanics, and make tailored recommendations to help keep you training safely throughout your recovery.

Your rehabilitation programme will focus on improving tendon capacity, strength, and movement patterns, with a gradual progression back to full activity and performance.

For coached athletes, we are also happy to liaise directly with your coach to ensure your rehabilitation and training plans work together effectively.
