From Injury to Performance

What Is Tendinopathy?

Tendinopathy is a condition where a tendon becomes overloaded and irritated, usually after repetitive strain or sudden increases in activity.
Common sites include the Achilles, patellar, hamstring, rotator cuff, and elbow tendons. Pain often builds gradually and worsens with use, rest alone rarely fixes it.

At Summit Osteo & Performance, we focus on building load tolerance and tendon capacity through education, targeted manual therapy, and progressive strength rehab.
